Activities and Trips
EXPERIENCE ROME

Travel back in time and discover the daily life of Ancient Rome through an immersive experience that combines cutting-edge technology, archaeology, and culinary history.

Our morning begins at the Circus Maximus, once the largest stadium in the Roman world and the setting for spectacular chariot races. Through the Circo Maximo Experience, an immersive virtual reality tour, you will witness the monument as it appeared over 2,000 years ago, exploring its history and the role it played in the political, social, and entertainment life of ancient Rome.

After the experience, we will take a short walk toward the Garum Museum, where we will discover the fascinating world of Roman cuisine. Through historical artifacts and interactive displays, you will learn about the ingredients, cooking techniques, dining traditions, and everyday food culture of the ancient Romans, gaining a unique perspective on one of the most important aspects of Roman civilization.

Before concluding the activity, we will enjoy a light lunch together in the surrounding area, the perfect opportunity to relax and reflect on the morning's discoveries.

A unique journey through the sights, flavors, and traditions of Ancient Rome.
