About this tour
Step into the Circus Maximus and take your place in a virtual chariot race at the heart of ancient Rome. This interactive experience pairs a lively game with an animated, certified 3D reconstruction that brings the history of the city’s largest ancient venue for public spectacles to life.
Discover how Rome grew from its beginnings to its height, then become the star of the races yourself. With a VR headset, race for the grand prize: 1 million sesterces and a laurel crown, all under the emperor’s watchful eye. An English- and Italian-speaking VR assistant and an integrated audio guide help bring the experience into focus. The activity lasts 120 minutes; arrive 15 minutes early and meet staff at the corner of Via di San Gregorio and Via dei Cerchi.
Choose this Rome Circus Maximus Virtual Reality Game for a playful, immersive way to connect with the stories of ancient Rome. Book your session and see if you can claim the crown.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.52 from 25 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.4.
