Full Description
Discover the secrets of a Baroque square built upon the enduring footprint of a Roman stadium as you explore Piazza Navona and the Stadium of Domitian Undergrounds on a private guided journey. Above ground, the square shimmers with fountains, palaces, and the rhythm of street life — an elegant stage shaped by centuries of artistry and reinvention. Your guide reveals stories tucked within flowing marble, rivalries between great architects, and the transformation from ancient spectacle to Baroque brilliance.
Then descend into the Stadium of Domitian’s underground levels, where arches, corridors, and masonry still hold the memory of the 1st-century arena. Down here, the stones feel closer to their original purpose — a place built for athletic contests, imperial prestige, and communal excitement.
Families may select an optional kid-friendly version led by a specialist who turns myths, athletics, and archaeology into hands-on fun. You can also choose optional private pick-up and drop-off from hotel, port, airport, or train station for a smooth start and finish.
Round out your adventure with optional extensions, from a savory Roman food tasting to nearby treasures like the Pantheon or Campo de’ Fiori, continuing your journey through the city’s layered history.
