Amazing Roman architecture, they were setting up a concert hall when I went to visit. They provide you a mobile tour guide in different languages and there is a nice souvenir shop on the way out.

The amphitheater is a beautiful and historic Roman arena that will inspire any intrepid traveller with an interest in Roman history.

There is an audioguide available for anyone interested in learning more about the history of the arena and is a worthwhile addition when looking around the amphitheater.

At the exit of the arena there is a shop where people can buy souvenirs.

There is a combination ticket available to buy that also includes access to the Maison Carrée and the Tour Magne, I’d recommend buying it if you’re interested in site seeing Nîmes.

I’d definitely recommend visiting the Amphitheater of Nîmes.

It’s definitely worth buying the combo ticket to visit the Maison Carrée” and the museum, though we didn’t have time to visit the latter. The arena is very well preserved and a pleasure to visit. It’s still hosting many types of events. A must see in the region, definitely recommended.

The Nîmes Amphitheatre is an incredible testament to Roman engineering and architecture. This well-preserved arena is not only an important historical site but also a venue for concerts and events today. Walking through its corridors and seating areas transports you back in time, evoking the grandeur of ancient gladiatorial contests. The scale and preservation of this amphitheater are truly awe-inspiring, making it a must-visit attraction in Nîmes. Whether you're interested in history, architecture, or simply want to immerse yourself in the past, the Nîmes Amphitheatre delivers a memorable experience.

One of the most preserved roman amphitheatres / arenas I have ever seen. The tickets are also affordable and you get an audio guide with it by default. There is also a good souvenir shop at the exit of the arena. Definitely recommended place to visit.

A well curated tour that really does give you a full experience of the beautiful amphitheatre. The audio tour was detailed without being too long. A must when visiting Nimes to get a grasp of the history and great views of the city too.

No other words than amazing. It's said to be the best preserved Roman amphitheater and after visiting a few I have to agree. If you are in the area I highly recommend visiting. On my visit the amphitheater was set for a concert and I'm still happy to have seen its beautiful. I visited on a saturday and it was not busy

Really great trip to the best preserved Roman arena. You can spend a good hour here exploring and taking in the incredible building work.

How cool is this place! The history! The violence! The speed! The momentum!

It's hard for me to dock anything a star that's 2,000 years old.

The prices were fair, there was a free audio tour, bathrooms, a gift shop. What else could one want in a 2k yr old arena!?

One of the best preserved amphitheaters in the world. We took the train from marseille, for a day trip and was a great day. Bought a ticket that included the amphitheater and museum (not to be missed)

This is a fun flashback to Roman times. There is a lot of refurbishment going on but the venue is very accessible and easy to navigate. Be prepared to do a lot of steps though

It is one of the best preserved Roman amphitheatres in the world. A must-see during your stay in Nîmes.

Nimes amphitheatre is another beautiful example of Roman architecture. It was built around 100 AD and is well-preserved today. It was once used for gladiator fights and still hosts various events such as bullfights, concerts and other events. While smaller than the Colosseum in Rome, I was still amazed by the size and design of the arena. I highly recommend going all the way to the top level to enjoy great views of Nimes and the amphitheatre itself.

A piece of history in Nimes.. I wish I had more time to roam around. There is an audio guide for the entire experience.

Beautiful and amazon Arena, dated s. I D.C. so almost 2000 years and still splendurous and astonishing. Now under big renovation but still can visit this historical monument. Specially recommended to take photos during sunset time but also night time.

The Amphitheatre of Nîmes is a sight to behold. Standing at an impressive 21 metres tall, the intact colleseum immerses you into ancient Nîmes.

The restoration projects that have been ongoing for some 10 years have made a lot of significant and beautiful refurbishments that only enhance the Amphitheatre. While I appreciate the remaining half in the authentic, as it was, way.

The "City of the Gods" show was spectacular and a pleasure for all, too.

Make sure you book tickets in advance to avoid disappointment.

This is the best preserved piece of Roman history I have ever been too, it helps to maintain its life, by still being in occasional usage today. Do the audio tour, climb high. Even I with a fear of heights managed to do 3/4 of this stadium. Allow a good 2 hours to go right through the park. Maybe avoid it in the heat of the summer day however due to all the stone being so hot.
