We had the opportunity to have Matt as our tour guide. He was very hospitable and knowledgeable of the history of Rome. Explained things very well and was able to interact well with our group on a personal level. Highly recommend the golf city tour!

The guide (Jimmy) was excellent and showed us all the key sights with interesting comments about the history. A good day 1 activity to get your bearings and in 35 degree heat it was the best way to do it.

Jack was a great travel guide and safe driver. We would definitely recommend him for anyone exploring Rome. He is very knowledgeable friendly.
Vernessa_T, Jul 2026
Our tour was great and our guide was very knowledgeable. This was our first trip to Rome and this was the best experience to see so many sites in the comfort of a golf cart.
Alain_M, Jul 2026
great way to see the main site in Rome in 3 hours in a comfortable golf cart.
Sam did a great job. we would recommend him
Rachel_L, Jul 2026
We booked this golf cart tour hoping for an insightful and efficient way to explore the city's major historical sites, but it fell short of expectations.
While the route technically took us past all the key landmarks on the itinerary, it was mainly a drive-by experience (which we kind of expected). It felt rushed and disconnected from the places we were visiting.
To make matters worse, the guide provided almost no real commentary. Whenever we asked basic, fundamental questions about the history of the landmarks, we were repeatedly met with a simple "I don't know." If you're paying for a guided tour, you expect the guide to have a basic grasp of the site's history. The one “fact” that was told to us was actually false and not true at all when fact checked on Gemini.

Dear Guest,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We are sorry that the experience did not fully meet your expectations.
Our City Highlights Golf Cart Tour is designed as a panoramic introduction to Rome's most iconic landmarks. The commentary provided by each guide may naturally vary depending on traffic conditions, operational requirements, and the interactive nature of the tour.
We also note that information obtained from third-party AI applications may not always be accurate or authoritative and should not be considered conclusive evidence when evaluating the quality or accuracy of a guided tour.
We appreciate your comments, as they help us continue improving our services.

We saw a lot of the Rome highlights without having to deal with a big bus and lots of people.
Our guide was Augusta and he was fabulous. He taught us a lot and was very entertaining.
Cheryl_Z, Jul 2026
Our driver, Matt, was awesome! This is a must do! He was exceptional in every way! He even made us a dinner reservation!
Nalaika_I, Jul 2026
We had the wonderful knowledgeable Sara who showed us so much of the city of Rome. My family and I have photos that we will never forget.
We wish we had a little more time than 10 minutes to see each thing. It took us almost ten minutes to walk to what we were supposed to be seeing, but we saw it all and it was a wonderful experience!! Thank you so very much Sarah! We loved your energy!
Natalie_F, Jul 2026
It was 100 degrees on the day we took the golf cart tour and it was excellent. We saw all the most popular sites in 3 hours with a knowledgeable and courteous driver - Simon. He arrived on time, gave plenty of time at each stop and made good recommendations for how to spend the 10 minutes or so at each site and for other events and places to eat and shop in Rome. Highly recommend.
Minerva_G, Jul 2026
Enoch was great ! He was very knowledgeable! Was a lot of fun ! The stop for gelato was the best . It was so good and so refreshing .
Hollienoel_H, Jul 2026
Jimmy took us to lots of well known and hidden spots- he recommended a great gelato spot and our dinner restaurant. This was an excellent way to start our trip- we were tired from traveling so the riding around was a perfect way to get our bearings and an overview without fatiguing ourselves. My teenagers enjoyed it too!
Charles_R, Jul 2026
Jimmy was an excellent driver. He took us to the Rome sites along very efficient routes. Got us there and allowed us time to visit and take lots of photo memories.
Chaunda_M, Jul 2026
Andy is amazing!!!! He is very knowledgeable of the city’s history and the significance of each tour site!!! Thoughtful, enthusiastic and helpful! Andy is the BEST!!!!
Sierra_C, Jul 2026
Paulo was such a fun tour guide and took great care in showing us all around Rome! Being in the golf cart made the heat of the day much more bearable. We were traveling from Naples, it was not a hard walk from the train station to the Piazza for pick up! We were with one other couple, the small group allowed us to truly go at our own pace, even stopping to grab a drink when we wanted. The tour was perfect to ‘See Rome in A Day’ … but it also made us wish we were staying in the gorgeous city longer to be able to see even more of the amazing sights Paulo took us too.
ronald_b, Jul 2026
excellent tour but I could not hear the driver very well , I kept asking him to speak up otherwise the tour was fantastic.
Nicholas_K, Jun 2026
Great way to start out our 1st visit to Rome. Guide was great and provided great insight into parts of the city that we went back and explored.
Genny_R, Jun 2026
We were excited for this tour, but it turned into a frustrating, expensive mess.
A music festival was happening right at the pickup spot, which the vendor never mentioned. That created traffic we had no way to anticipate for what should’ve been a short trip. We messaged through the app as soon as we realized we’d be late, but got no response.
When we were 5 minutes out, the vendor called us directly. We explained the situation and they said it was fine. We
arrived right at that mark, and my son ran ahead to flag down a golf cart that was pulling away. He gave our family name to the driver, who told us to wait — then drove off anyway. We waited 20 more minutes with no contact. I tried calling back on the same number that had just called us, and couldn’t get through.
When we followed up afterward, the vendor was unapologetic and refused a refund — despite us doing everything we could to communicate in real time.
If you’re going to run pickups near a major event, tell customers to plan for extra time, and actually answer your phone or app messages when people are trying to reach you. We missed the tour through no fault of our own and were still charged in full.

Dear Guest,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
We are sorry that you were unable to join the tour.
As stated in our booking conditions, guests are requested to arrive at the meeting point in advance, as Rome's traffic conditions and public events can significantly affect travel times. Our tours operate on a fixed schedule out of respect for all participants, and drivers are unable to delay departures beyond the designated waiting time.
We appreciate that you attempted to contact us, and we regret that you were not able to participate in the experience.
Kind regards,
Luxurbe Team

David was a great guide and very informative seeing the city this way was good instead of having to walk everywhere
Todd_J, Jun 2026
Great way to get a view of all big sites in Rome! Would recommend for first days in the city to get your bearings and a quick peak at everything. Great tour guide (Agosto) who provided just the right amount of information about what we were seeing. Would certainly recommend!
Wendy_B, Jun 2026
Best way to see Rome for first time visitors. Our guide was amazing and took us all over the city. He was very informative and took us to some extra special local spots that were off the tour too. Couldn’t have asked for a better tour to start off our trip to Rome.
Theresa_S, Jun 2026
There were several issues with this tour.
First booking a pick up location was difficult and communication with the company was terrible. I ended up asking for the address to meet the tour at and the company gave me an address but the guide was not there. As a result the tour started 1/2 hour late.
It did not go to all the locations on the itinerary. We did not go to any of the optional stops or two of the listed stops including not going to the pantheon.
The speakers were not working so if ypu are in the back of the cart you can't hear what the driver is saying.
Finally if ypu are mobility challenged and are looking for a tour that gets close to the stops so ypu don't have to walk far this is not the tour for you. The guide stopped several blocks away from the stops he did make and you have to walk to the location.

Dear Guest,
Thank you for your feedback.
We are sorry that certain aspects of the experience did not meet your expectations.
However, we would like to clarify that panoramic tours in Rome operate within a complex urban environment where traffic conditions, pedestrian zones, security restrictions, road closures, and access limitations may affect stop locations and routing.
Regarding accessibility, golf cart tours can reduce walking distances compared to traditional walking tours, but they cannot always stop directly adjacent to every monument due to local regulations and vehicle access restrictions.
We also note that your review acknowledges that the tour took place and that multiple locations were visited. The concerns raised primarily relate to route expectations, audio equipment, and personal accessibility preferences rather than a failure to provide the tour itself.
Kind regards,
Luxurbe Team

I was nervous to start walking around Rome so I booked this to get a chance to see Rome. Our driver, August, was great at explaining the history of locations. I took the option to get picked up at the hotel only because I had just arrived.
The ride can be bumpy is areas for those who are sensitive to bumpy rides.

Robin was a knowledgeable & friendly guide for our 3 generation group we all enjoyed the sights & having someone to take group photos safely
Robin_B, Jun 2026
Robin was amazing. His knowledge of history and Rome was so inspiring and informative. He made you want to see more of Rome. Very very enjoyable!
Tammy_F, Jun 2026
Unfortunately, I would not recommend this tour. The driver did not wear his headset even after being ask if he would so that everyone could hear. Driver not well versed in history. I felt like we drove in circles for about 2.5 hours.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Dear Guest,
Thank you for your feedback.
We are sorry that the experience did not meet your expectations.
However, we would like to note that assessments regarding a guide's historical knowledge are inherently subjective and may vary from guest to guest. Panoramic tours are designed to combine sightseeing, transportation, and commentary, with the guide also required to focus on navigation and safety throughout the experience.
The statement that the tour "drove in circles for about 2.5 hours" is likewise a personal characterization rather than an objective description of the route. Rome's historic center contains numerous traffic restrictions, one-way streets, pedestrian areas, and route limitations that may affect how the city is navigated.
While we respect your opinion, the review reflects personal expectations rather than verifiable deficiencies in the service provided.
Kind regards,
Luxurbe Team
