Taxes and fees will be calculated at checkout
Overview
Enter the largest archaeological complex still being excavated in Rome and walk with a knowledgeable guide through the many rooms of Nero's palace that can be visited today. Delve into the tragic story of Emperor Nero, whose reign was marked by both lavish indulgence and growing unpopularity. Separate fact from fiction with your expert guide, debunking myths surrounding the infamous fire of 64 AD. Explore the sumptuous vaulted halls and hallways admiring spectacular frescoes that have been meticulously restored, some of them glittering with decorations that gave the palace the nickname of “Golden House”. Then put on the Oculus Rift offered during the visit and enjoy, in one of the inner halls of Nero's palace, the 3D virtual reconstruction experience of some of the halls, the great outside portico, and the splendid view the palace must have enjoyed. See with your own eyes what Nero's Palace must have looked like at its peak and compare it with what remains today.
