Visit the city as you’ve never done before. An alternative path to knowledge, rethought in a multi-sensorial key, which aims to understand the beauty of one of the most famous cities in the world. A journey enriched by tactile-workshop experiences to make the discovery fun, exciting and educational. We propose workshop activities as daily tours or spread in 4-5 days. Discover the traditional boats and try to row! Thanks to our partnerships with several associations – which are fighting to preserve the heritage of local traditions – we are able to offer a breathtaking experience: after a historical and technical overview on traditional rowing boats (totally accessible as they are high and dry) participants will be invited to take a sit in a boat for an exciting excursion along the canals of Venice. For those who are more athletic, there will be the opportunity to experiment the traditional, and also charming, Venetian rowing technique, i.e. with a single rower, standing on the stern of the boat.

The Anfiteatro Campano is an ancient Roman amphitheater located in the town of Santa Maria Capua Vetere, in the Campania region of Italy. It is one of the largest amphitheaters in the world, with a seating capacity of around 60,000 spectators. The amphitheater was built in the 1st century AD and was used for gladiatorial contests and other public spectacles. It is believed that it was built on the site of an earlier Greek amphitheater, which was used for similar purposes. The amphitheater is elliptical in shape and measures 170 meters by 140 meters. It is made of brick and tuff stone and has four levels of seating. The lower levels were reserved for the wealthy and the upper levels were for the general public. The arena itself was surrounded by a high wall, which protected the spectators from the animals and gladiators. Over the years, the Anfiteatro Campano fell into disrepair and was used as a quarry for building materials. However, in the 19th century, it was rediscovered and partially restored. Today, visitors can explore the remains of the amphitheater and imagine what it was like to watch gladiatorial contests and other public spectacles in ancient Rome.
