We had a blast going to this place. The instructor was strongly in character and really enriched…read morethe experience. We learned a lot and we had a fun time. It was a bit tricky to get to so I'd suggest to take a cab from Rome if you can. Bring bug spray and the mosquitoes are abundant in the area! This was truly a unique experience and one I will treasure with my wife for a long time coming. Yes it is more tailored to kids but as an adult, I still had a great time! If you are looking for a unique experience in Rome, this is definitely something you should consider! The organization does a great job replicating weapons and they really know their stuff! The passion shows immensely through their spirit and with the way they talk!

Yuri was our "Gladiator Trainer" and was fantastic. He was a wealth of information and kept the entire group engaged and entertained. The lesson before was very interesting and the hands-on training/battle was so fun! My 2 boys ages 6 and 7 1/2 LOVED this and thought is was absolutely the best thing ever. Thank you to Yuri and the rest of the staff. Note: you need to make a reservation prior. The experiences are every 2 hours starting at 9:00 am. It is a bit out of town...approx 20-25 minutes from central Rome but totally worth it. Take a taxi and on your way back you can either ask them to call you a taxi or order an Uber which was really very simple!!!
