Description
This Colosseum Arena tour with a Domus Aurea VR experience joins two halves of ancient Rome: the amphitheatre as it stands today, and the palace of Nero as it once looked. You choose the option that fits, and one of them adds entry to the Roman Forum and Palatine Hill.
At the Colosseum, a professional guide takes the arena visit and talks about gladiators, emperors, public spectacles and Roman engineering. It is the part of the day for the stories behind the stone.
Then you move to the Domus Aurea, Nero's imperial palace, where a host from the staff runs the virtual reality visit. In virtual reality, you see the halls, the decoration and the architecture as they were.
