Landmark
Where the audio-guide version lets visitors move independently, this tour keeps a guide on hand to explain details like how Roman engineers lightened the dome's concrete as it rises to reduce its weight, or how the building's near-perfect preservation owes as much to its conversion into a church as to Roman construction. Standing beneath the coffered dome and its central oculus remains the highlight regardless of format, but a live guide can answer questions an audio track can't anticipate. At the same one-hour length as the audio version but a step up in price, it suits visitors who prefer a human guide's context.
