Super friendly and helpful guide. Everything worked fine. The graphics are certainly no longer up-to-date. And yet after a few minutes you were completely immersed in the world. Interesting that there was once a huge fountain in front of the Colosseum. We didn't know until now. It would be great if there would also be VR from the Palatine and Roman Forum. Here in particular it would be extremely interesting to move in the world of yesteryear.

Very nice to do, especially with children. If you then stand in the Colosseum, you have a better idea. Great supervisors!
