This was a great tour to book for our kids at the start of our six day stay in Rome. Allowed them to get some energy out and feel apart of all the fun we would learn and experience in the following days. Helena was our instructor and she did a great job providing history of the Roman soldiers and teaching us proper technique. Being a gladiator is tough business but so fun!!

It was fun to hear a bit of Gladiator history and some of the fighting moves. It's a great break from the norm for families with kids 8-12 years old!

We had a blast! Mirco, our guide, took it serious but still had fun with us. He worked hard to demonstrate and help us practice the skills and then fight each other in ring. So fun!

Helena is a fabulous gladiator trainer! My family had a wonderful experience! Outside of the Colosseum my family enjoyed this the most! Highly recommend!

What a fantastic and unique experience. We took the gladiator class before visiting the Colosseum. Both of our teens loved it. It was a nice mix of information and activity; our hearts definitely got pumping and we felt like we had a workout at the completion of the training.

We had a great time for my son’s 16th birthday celebration. This was a great experience for the young and old. My husband had a blast too.

I was charged twice! Two different amount . Now I’m disputing this with my bank. Such a hassle. They said this is for all ages and they only catered to the younger participants. This was definitely not an adventure that was worth the money we paid.

(Your survey doesn’t give the option of “Family-All Adults.” ? It should.) Our taxi got us (me, husband and adult son) there over 25 minutes early. No one was there at all. Unnerving. Finally, an old man rode up on a bicycle and started to do work hauling buckets and other items in and around the buildings, but neither acknowledged us nor told us where to wait. Just as it became 9AM (class start time) a mom with 2 young boys and their nanny arrived. The Gladiator-Instructor was a lovely young man who spoke English very well. He took the participants to an indoor location and gave lots of interesting history, and demonstrated clothing, weapons and fighting strategies used by the Gladiators and Roman Soldiers. The students were moved outside and were taught fighting moves and Ancient Latin commands. They walked across the property again and into a mini-arena to put the weapons and fighting techniques to the test. Everyone was given a personalized souvenir scroll at the end of the class. / The information was extremely interesting and the experience made for some laughs and certainly good stories to tell. On the downside, it was a bit frustrating to share the experience with the 6-year olds because the instructor had to stop and explain everything frequently in a way children could understand.

Really fun experience for kids and adults alike. Our instructor for the day was great with the kids taking part. My son is a bit shy but he loved it and got involved with everything, he really made it interesting and engaging for him. The museum bit was really informative and kids get to have a play around with some of the helmets and shields. Really good fun and would highly recommend!
