Experience the best of Roman Pantheon

Experience the Pantheon in Rome with Dex

The Pantheon Rome Dex experience is an interactive self-guided tour available exclusively with selected Pantheon Rome admission tickets booked through Headout.

Put on your earphones and follow a story that unfolds from the portico into the rotunda, connecting the oculus and the coffered dome with the bronze doors, marble floor and tombs around the walls.

Historical and fictional characters lead you through stories of Hadrian rebuilding the temple after two earlier versions burned; the unreinforced concrete dome that is still the largest of its kind; the oculus and the rain that falls through it; the drainage holes in the floor; the building’s survival as a church; and the tombs of Raphael and the kings of Italy, accompanied by original music and immersive sound design.

How Dex guides you through the Pantheon

• Dex uses your phone’s location to guide you along a recommended route covering the portico and its granite columns, the bronze doors, the rotunda floor beneath the oculus, the side chapels, and the tombs of Raphael and Vittorio Emanuele II. As you reach each location, it automatically begins the story connected to what you are seeing.
  
• The route is only the starting point. When a column, a marble panel, or a tomb catches your attention, pause and ask your Dex guide a question. Photograph a supported architectural detail, inscription, or tomb to uncover more about it, open a related story, or return to the route when you are ready.
  
• Dex also points you towards recommended viewpoints, photo spots, and details of the portico and floor that are easy to walk over. You decide when to pause, where to go deeper, and when to continue.

How Dex differs from an audio guide and a group tour

An audio guide gives you a collection of prepared recordings. Dex builds those stories into a location-aware route, automatically connects them to what is around you, and lets you ask questions or investigate supported objects along the way.

A group tour gives you live interpretation from a human guide while following a scheduled departure, shared route, and group pace.

Dex offers a different experience: a structured tour that you can begin when you choose, pause whenever something interests you, and explore at your own pace. Choose Dex if you want the direction and storytelling of a guided visit with the freedom to explore the Pantheon independently.
