So much fun for the whole family. They even involved the grandparents who had come to watch. It was hot but they offered lots of cold water and we laughed and learned the whole time.
Bring and use bug spray. We had a great time! I felt this gave some variety to learning about Roman history. We laughed a lot.
The whole experience was excellent, and I’m sure it will be the children’s standout memory of their trip to Italy. What super fun! Educational too. Our boys loved every second. Thank you so much.
This starts with some gladiator history in a "museum" then moves to "training" where you weave side to side under a rope, jump side to side over a rope, avoid side to side swinging bags, then do push ups. You do the run through twice. Then you learn basic fighting moves and practice with a partner. Lastly you move to the Arena and battle to the death. At the end you get a certificate for your freedom. It is hot but fun. Water ia provided. Went with 13 year old and 15 year old. Boy and girl.
Excellent, hot and good work. A fantastic 2 hrs learning alot about roman gladiators. Great replication of armour etc and time for photography
Ivan was an excellent teacher and we couldn’t have been any happier with this activity. Kids had a good time and were very entertained
I paid this experience for my 8 year old. At first, he complained as to why I had enrolled him and was hesitant to join the introductory explanation about gladiators. By the end of the “training”, he asked to come back the following day! The instructor gives a brief introduction to the different types of gladiators and their lifestyle. It was very helpful since the following day we went to the Colosseum and my son was able to relate what he had learned the day before.
Great time with the kids! History and fun and lots of running around. It is not near the coloseum which was my bad for not noticing
This was incredible. The teacher is hilarious. He is incredibly knowledgeable about gladiators. He trains you very well. You get water too. NOW! Getting there was a bit tricky. You have to walk all the way up to the end and you will see it. Its hidden in the back.
Amazing experience for both adults and children. Great learning and even better action! Fun for the whole family.
