Top tip for the Colosseum - Really a great medium to immerse yourself in that era. Our children and we parents were thrilled, and you have a completely different knowledge when you visit and explore the Colosseum afterwards.

Great for tweens and adults! - Really helped to visualize what the colosseum was like at its height. Adults and kids really enjoyed it. Really nice to skip the lines as well!

Great learning for the whole family - This was my first time using VR and I loved it! Combining Ancient ruins with Virtual Reality so you could see the Colloseam in it's heyday was amazing! We did this as a family with our 2 young boys 9 & 7 and we all thought it was great, I think the boys would have liked the tour but with the VR it really just added that extra bit to make it a special day out and a great learning experience. The guides were helpful and friendly also.

AVERAGE - Maybe interesting for children. For a somewhat average adult. Quality of the film to be developed. Several languages are available to listen to the explanations (French too). We watch the 3D film which is made up of 3 parts, outside the coliseum before starting our visit to the monument. The queue cut-out, however, is interesting to avoid the endless queue in front of the coliseum.

VR & Skip the line-Disappointing - Purchased these tickets for the VR experience and ability to skip the line. The VR explanation sounded very intriguing and exciting to be able to see a recreation of the colosseum dating back to its beginning. We had 10 in our group. My family bought 4 tickets. The day before our tour. Another family of 2 received an email, that said the VR experience is cancelled due to technology problems and your new time to arrive is 45 minutes later. The rest of us did NOT receive an email. We went at the 9AM scheduled time but no one with a black Viator flag was at the meeting spot. We looked on our app and there was a message about the cancelled VR. Since we now had 45 min. to blow off our steam and grab coffee, we left. At 9:20 we get a call that says you are late and where are you!? Another person received communication on the app, '"have you found us?" We hurried back to the meeting spot and no one was there. We waited until 9:50AM and the lady with the black flag arrived. We explained our irritation with the process, lack of communication, and missing out on VR. She couldn't help us and said call the office. We called later that day and they said we would get a partial refund. Our tickets were originally, $192 for 4 tickets. We got an email that we will get a refund of $92. Have not seen that come through yet and it has been 5 business days. Needless to say, we did get in and skip the line quickly, but I could have paid 19 euros to skip the line on a competitors site and skipped all this hassle!

Not Customer Friendly - This company is not customer friendly. I requested to make a time change on the same day. They would not do it. They told me that I made my plans to far in advance

No communication possible with this service provider. - Too disappointed. : We had booked on Tuesday and had to change to Wednesday. So it was just a change of date, no refund. Impossible to reach them by phone, no email address and negative response to Booking who tried for us. So we pay for 4 entries instead of 2 😭. Really uncommercial!

Don’t waste your money - We showed up 15 minutes early and we’re unable to find the group. We tried to call and message them but they had left without us. We then had to purchase tickets again and then the tour operator got back to us after we had already bought new tickets. When we requested a refund they refused using the excuse that we were late. 0/10 recommend don’t waste your money on this tour.
