Cool little self guided tour of lost history. If you have an extra hour or so, I would definitely check this out.

Grady_J

Very interesting and not crowded. Nice tour to learn more about Ancient Rome without lots of people. I recommend

Pamela_S

Even though we reserved a ticket in advance they did not bother to tell us they were closed for a private event. And the staff were VERY rude! Disappointing!

Gabriella_C

It was a great tour, well presented, the audio cassette system was great & all of the reading material supported what we were hearing. Very informative & always so amazed with how advanced people were so many centuries ago.

Loved this tour of the stadium if Domitian! Would recommend to go if in Rome. So much about Rome and the stadium can be learned on the tour.

Seeing the excavation with the reconstructed images for this area of Rome was really incredible. Together with the new access to the grounds at Torre Argentina you can really get a coherent sense of what exists below your feet. Very informative displays in Italian and English. The audio guide had additional interesting information. Unfortunately the numbers for the audioguide did not correlate to the numbers on the excavated structures features because a couple of audio sequences were not working. This led a bit of confusion. The short film is also enjoyable and adds more context for Piazza Navona.

We loved learning about and seeing this hidden gem piece of history. We wish they would have been able to uncover and preserve more of it. The audio tour was helpful and so were the plaques and videos.

What an amazing experience! There's a LOT to see in Rome, but I was so happy we stumbled across this (relatively) lesser-known site. The remains are fascinating, and the explanatory materials (audio guide, wall-text, short film) really help put the space together and stimulate the imagination. A very well thought-out space, fascinating for adults and kids alike.

Great listening guide, very interesting to be standing within the columns of the stadium as we learn.
