The Treasure hunt
A booklet of games is issued free of charge to each child at the entrance to the “Arènes”, enticing them into an exciting treasure hunt.
The audioguide is an essential medium for discovering the “Arènes”, as it provides details of the history of the buildings, and brings the ancient stones back to life… the visitor, in fact, hears all the lively sounds of the era, such as trumpets and conversations etc. Thanks to the audioguide, the entertainment continues to live on.
The audioguide is interactive and can be controlled at different levels, making it possible to visit the site in complete independence at one’s own pace, whatever the visitor’s time of arrival, nationality or focus of interest.
The system is available in eight languages (French, English, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Japanese and Chinese), and is very flexible, light, easy to handle and takes up very little space. It is currently the best system available for personalising the tour. All visitors are consequently provided with the services of a personal guide, proposing a fascinating commentary on the architecture of the “Arènes” and the captivating history of the entertainment through from ancient Rome to the current day.
