Did I miss it? Was there a link to the actual tour?

I've seen at least one other like this, or likely an earlier version, on YouTube, and it's truly amazing.

Of course, the next step would be to make it interactive: Buy food at a market or "fast food" shop, attend a play, races and games at the Hippodrome or Colosseum, attend the Senate, purchase a slave, or just the equivalent of a "pub crawl."

Then again, some folks will object to the realities of slaves and slavery, others (more sensibly) to the casual cruelty of the games, and some to the idea that such a removed age would actually seem not all that different from our own.

Still, I think it's where the tech will take us.
