Rome: 2-Hour Gladiator School

Amazing morning out!! We were late due to taxis not turning up but I called the school and we were still able to attend! My son is 13, (autistic/adhd) and he thoroughly enjoyed it! Very informative even for adults, we both came away with lots of new knowledge and my son had the best time he didn’t want to leave! It was a lot more hands on than we expected and it was so fun even to watch! I didn’t participate but I still got a certificate! Excellent service & staff were very friendly and spoke better English than us English! Thank you so much for unforgettable memories!

Wow! I was definitely in the fence about booking this tour. I have two young teenage boys, and I was very afraid it would be too cheesy or “kiddie” for them. I should not have worried. This was two hours packed with fun, constant activity and (whether they realized it or not) learning. My kids have not stopped talking about and both say it’s the best part of our trip so far. My wife and I attended only as spectators, and even we found it highly entertaining. I was surprised that there was a lot of (safe, fun) gladiatorial fighting. I was expecting it to be 75% lecture and safety meeting. It was not. And our host/guide was super friendly and worked hard! He was constantly moving, engaging, encouraging, and he seemed to really enjoy his work. I could not recommend this activity more.
