Vicus Caprarius
1 HourAccompanied by a guide, we will descend below the street level of modern-day Rome to explore the remains of an ancient building complex brought to light through archaeological excavations. A journey that allows you to understand how the city changed over the centuries through streets, homes, utility spaces, and ancient hydraulic structures.
The visit offers an opportunity to explore at close quarters the relationship between Rome and water—a fundamental element for the city’s life and development. A highlight of the tour is the Aqua Virgo (Acquedotto Vergine), which is still fed today by the waters that supply the famous Trevi Fountain.
During the tour, the guide will lead participants through the site’s various historical phases, sharing interesting facts, events, and transformations that have shaped this hidden corner of Rome. Visitors will also have the opportunity to view significant archaeological remains, including traces of daily life and artifacts that tell the story of the neighborhood throughout the centuries.
An ideal experience for those looking to go beyond the most famous landmarks and discover a hidden, surprising Rome made of archaeological layers, water, and stories still preserved beneath the city streets.
