Verona Arena Skip-the-line Tour

About this activity

Meet the local guide in Piazza Bra and start to visit, during this 45 minutes tour, the famous Arena: the great Roman amphitheatre of Verona.

Enter with your priority ticket and listen to the local expert telling you about Arena construction, its current and ancient use, and the historical legends behind it.

Walk under the old marble arcades and listen to stories of gladiators and of the ancient Roman games that used to take place here. Discover facts and anecdotes about the extraordinary history of this monument. Arena, which survived an earthquake in the 12th century, is still nowadays the city’s favorite open-air Opera hall, for its unique sound quality. Nowadays it’s famous for the Opera season that started in 1913 with the world-famous Aida.

During this tour don’t forget your camera: from the top of the Arena you can enjoy a 360° view on the beautiful Piazza Bra. After this express tour you’ll know everything about the most famous and beautiful Verona monument.
