Embark on this innovative tour and delve into the history of the Colosseum. With an animated and interactive 3D-certified reconstruction accompanied by a narrative-friendly voiceover, you'll uncover the secrets of one of the world's most significant ancient monuments.
Meet the local tour assistant and receive a state-of-the-art virtual reality headset to wear throughout your journey. Prepare yourself for an immersion into ancient Rome, nearly 2000 years ago, when the Colosseum was at its peak of glory and fame. You'll have the opportunity to virtually traverse three distinct areas: the square, where you can admire the gilded bronze statue of Nero; inside the arena amidst the roar of fierce lions and battling gladiators; and through various corridors of the mysterious underground - typically hidden from tourists - where enslaved people prepare for shows and ravenous animals await their sudden release into the arena.
Once you've completed your virtual exploration, a member of staff will escort you to the Colosseum to continue your historical journey at your own pace. If you wish, you can extend your cultural exploration in a true open-air museum, with access to the Roman Forum, Imperial Forum and Palatine Hill, home of Romulus, the founder of Rome.
