How can I see Rome from a gladiator's perspective?

Question

Gladiators and ancient Rome have always been a source of great interest for me. Are there any opportunities of visiting the Colosseum the way a gladiator would have?

Answer 1

Certainly, by joining an arena floor and third tier guided tour you can take in the Colosseum from a gladiator’s point of view. Other than the general public, these tours allow you to access the underground backstage where gladiators and animals were housed, and unique sceneries from the third tier. This offers a close up of the colossal size of the interior of Colosseum and a wide view of Rome.
