Itinerary
Travel back in time and discover one of the greatest monuments of the roman empire: the Colosseum. Explore the monument and its surroundings with different eyes using our special Oculus 3D glasses, through which you'll be able to see three different certified reconstructions with an integrated audio-guide. Walk around the Colosseum square with its monuments, the arena where dangerous lions and strong gladiators are waiting for you and the hidden and mysterious undergrounds of the monument - everything completely reconstructed as it was in Roman imperial times. Don’t be afraid and take this very innovative and educational experience of the Colosseum! All the historical information is checked by the Archaeological 3D Laboratory of Sapienza University of Rome, one of the most important Italian universities and the world's top-ranked one for Ancient Studies. For security reasons it is strictly forbidden to enter the Colosseum with any kind of 3D device, so that the virtual experience takes place outside the monument. Please be aware that this option DOES NOT include the entry ticket.

It was a unique view into the past of the Colosseum. Our guide was super helpful and gave photo tips
It was okay overall. The graphics weren’t what I used to see with another VR in Milan Duomo, and there was a lot of flickering on the screen. However, the story and description were interesting.
We booked tickets for the colosseum in Rome which were cancelled the day before. The reason given was: Why? Unfortunately, your activity provider Ancient and Recent can no longer provide Rome: Colosseum WORLD Tour with AI Guide App & Arena Option on October 26, 2025 at Rome, Italy. They've informed us that this activity cannot be offered due to a blackout in your destination. This is actually a total lie as there are no planned blackouts. Given how late “Ancient and Recent” cancelled our tour it left us no way of booking an alternative as there is no availability. It seems they never had tickets and are clearly over selling. My recommendation would be to book directly with the colosseum and not use Get Your Guide or Ancient and Recent.
Great for kids to learn about the colosseum before visiting inside! We didn’t get to do this at the colosseum because there were fears it would rain, so it ended up being a bit different to what we expected but it was ok!
It was only my second time using Virtual Reality. I really enjoyed seeing what the Colloseum looked like originally. I was able to tour it as it was years ago. I thought it was fun and educational.
ESTAFA !!!!! No compren , perderán su dinero! SCAM !!!! Do not buy with them, you are going to lose your money! They charged me 150 euros for an underground experience in Colliseum and then gave me regular basic tickets that cost 18 euros. When i called they said they dont take any responsability.. I do not reccomend with this service provider !!
This is a fantastic experience you cannot miss during your visit to the Coloseum.This company are so well organised,all the VR glasses work perfect and so does the audio equipment.It seems you ARE living in Roman times,really amazing.Dont miss it!!
Pretty cool experience! The VR so just enough to give a glimpse of all that occurred. I felt as if I was walking back in time!
Very nice guides. History of Colosseum and it’s exterior well brought to life with 360 degrees view. Could be slightly longer and battle in the arena bit more lively . Overall very good experience, thanks!
This was a great tour for children as it gives them a really good idea of how it used to look and what used to happen at the site. The ladies who ran it were lovely, very knowledgeable and professional. We were handed over to another lady to go in to the actual collosseum - she was a bit blunt and not as friendly as the younger ones. If you take older children you must take a passport to prove that they are children if you bought a child's ticket, they're very thorough with this.
We loved it and it is great as before visiting the Colosseum. Very good organization, very friendly guide.
It's not an entrance ticket to the Coliseum, just an eimersais experience with the glasses in front of the monument. Very interesting. But when I bought I found that came along with the ticket to the entrance. Should be more explained.
Nice experience to discover the colisee otherwise. This.includes colisee and forum tickets and palatial. Good family. The person who received us was very smiling and very nice
All right. Recommended 100% to everyone!!! I have seen Colosseum like 2000 years ago, I seem to have traveled to the past!!
Highly recommended VR experience. We did some other VR in Rome that wasn't great, but this one was great. It transports you back to that time. Highly recommended.
Very nice for the whole family to discover the Coliseum in ancient times! Simple but very playful. The children enjoyed
Beautiful experience, my 5-year-old son had a great time ... Alexia, the tour assistant, very kind and exhaustive ... to be redone!
Beautiful experience, to do absolutely! The 3D viewers are brilliant!! We were not bored at all, which could happen with guides. Silvia explained few things but the most important, very good and transmits her passion for history.
Abbiamo fatto la visita in famiglia, con un ragazzo di 13 anni e un bimbo di 5. Cristina, alla nostra guida, è stata estremamente gentile e disponibile, soprattutto coi ragazzi. Era molto preparata e attenta alle esigenze di tutti senza mai spazientirsi. Consiglio quest'esperienza a tutti, anche per fermarsi un po' dopo tanto camminare in città.
A visit decidedly out of the ordinary. The story told with the reconstruction of the scenarios of the past. An experience suitable for everyone, to return to marvel at the beauty of our places. Capable and prepared staff to accompany the visitor on a journey. A journey through time. A magical way to access one of the most beautiful things in the world: knowledge.
first of all the courtesy and kindness of Cristina! worn the vr, we moved virtually in Roman times. a really engaging experience. really nice. highly recommend
A fantastic experience!!! We booked the virtual family tour (2 adults and 2 children aged 10 and 8). My older son has just finished the fifth grade and the little one will start the third one soon: for both of them being able to "see" beyond the ruins was magical, it was very impressed and they also enjoyed the next tour inside the Colosseum, with a greater awareness of what they were seeing. Ms Cristina really prepared and very kind, and the company realizes absolutely valuable services and that leave their mark. We will certainly come back and try other experiences.
Exciting experience that involved and fascinated even the girls. Easy to locate the meeting location, extremely available staff, both by phone and wa, courteous and quick in responses. Well-organized and well-proposed content, of the right duration to be clear and pleasant. Engaging 3D reconstruction and simple interactivity even for the little ones. Thank you.
Great experience for both my children and us parents. Indispensable to make children understand the magnificence of the Colosseum. Good and nice staff girls. (Stefany)
Wonderful virtual tour. The best way for adults and children to immerse themselves in ancient Rome and live an "adventure" at the Colosseum. Very kind staff
