Discover Florence
Florence - Firenze - is many things; the heart of Tuscany, a Renaissance jewel, a true city of art. It's home to the Uffizi, one of the oldest museums in the world, and the Accademia, home to one of the most famous statues in the world - David. The incredible Cathedral - Duomo dominates the skyline, with Brunelleschi's fabulous dome - cupola, and Giotto's mighty clock-tower - campanile.

Rome,
Domus Aurea.
Official guided tours.
An offical guided tour of the ongoing restoration works of Nero's 'Golden House', the Domus Aurea of Ancient Rome.
“Very interesting site and our guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The 3D reconstruction was amazing we really enjoyed your tour thank you!”

“One of the best tours available in Rome! Thrilling to be able to enter an archeological site and then to see the VR of the Domus. The video at the entrance is new and worth the stop to see the history of the site.”

A fully guided tour to view ongoing restoration at the Domus Aurea. Explore Nero's 'Golden Palace' and step back into Ancient Rome.
The tour lasts approximately 75 minutes and is available in English, Italian or Spanish on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Group sizes are restricted to 23 visitors, and you'll be accompanied at all times by an official guide. The only way to discover this wonder of opulent Ancient Rome is as part of a guided tour.
Part of the tour offers a unique immersion in the day to day (though far from ordinary!) life of this incredible space via a series of virtual-reality and multimedia interludes. The exhibition begins towards the end of your visit and then continues in another space, one you'll be directed to at the end of the Domus tour. The exhibition can only be explored on the same day as your visit.
Back to Domus Aurea
Overview
The tour includes multimedia presentations and 3D immersive technology that will give you the most amazing insights into the history of, and day to day happenings in, the Domus Aurea.
Please note that the 3D Oculus Rift headsets that are used as part of the virtual-reality time machine are not intended for prolonged use by children under the ages of 13, nor for anyone suffering from epilepsy or any serious eye conditions. Any and all multimedia commentaries are, for now, in English and Italian only.
The tour also includes a downloadable ebook guide in PDF, mobi and epub formats.

1st Jul 2023A wonderful experience! Our guide did a great job of giving us important general background information as well as useful details about the space itself. The projections and virtual reality experience were also great features (I'd visited another time years ago and can vouch for how much these elements help)! The Domus Aurea is so fascinating that I definitely could have stood a slightly longer tour, but 75-minutes was still plenty of time to get a good orientation to the site.5 starsDK, Netherlands
