The tour was well-organized and informative. Our guide was punctual, knowledgeable about the history and culture of the area, and ensured everyone felt included. I appreciated their patience in answering questions and adapting the pace to the group’s needs. A very enjoyable experience overall.

Golf cart tour was outstanding! Great operator that was both a wonderful driver and tour guide . We’ve been to Rome many times and taken similar tours - this was the best!!

Overview

A golf cart tour of Rome might sound like a clash of eras, but think about it: It’s the perfect size for Rome’s narrow streets. With your driver at the wheel, you’ll get open-air access (and photos) of the city’s epic landmarks, covering far more ground than you would on foot. And since this is a private tour, you’ll call the shots, maximizing your day in the Eternal City.
  • See Rome's best sites in the open-air breeze—but not too fast for photos
  • Your English-speaking guide makes the day fun, jam-packed, and easy
  • Hassle-free pickup from your central Rome hotel
  • Limited to just your group, you'll get a more Rome personalized experience

    Our guide Sabrina was exceptional. She was friendly, professional and informative. Probably the best guide we ever had. She was very knowledgeable and provided insight you normally don’t receive on some shorter tours.

    Golf Cart Tour of Rome

    MaryAnne_W, Dec 2025
    Hadi our tour guide was superb. He had an incredible knowledge of Roman history , the geopolitical background of various parts of Rome and its buildings. He took us on routes that were shortcuts through neighborhoods we never would have seen and made it so much fun. We absolutely loved our afternoon with him. Very accommodating and adjusted the itinerary based on what we had already seen . So much better than a regular tour.

    Phenomenal

    Great first day overview. Gives you an overall perspective of what you want to do for the rest of your time. And great views.

    Wonderful Tour

    Gayle_G, Oct 2025
    Sahar loves Rome and goes out of her way to show you many highlights and history. She has a sweet and friendly personality, and treats you like a friend. We enjoyed it very much.

    Best way to see Rome.

    Hadi was great, very knowledgeable and kind, and packed a ton of great stuff into 3 hours. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to see Rome and learn about the history of it.

    Must do

    Extremely friendly, knowledgeable, easy going and fun. We would highly recommend Marco to our closest friends.

    Best way to see Rome with local guide!

    We cannot recommend this experience highly enough! Our family of six (including two teens and two grandparents) had an unforgettable time exploring Rome by golf cart with our amazing local guide and driver, Pietro. In fact, we loved the tour so much the first time, we booked him again for a second day! Pietro was incredibly knowledgeable about the city’s history, art, and architecture, but what really stood out was how engaging and easy to understand he was. He brought ancient Rome to life for all of us — from the Colosseum and the Roman Forum to the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Spanish Steps, and more — while tailoring the experience to fit our interests and pace. Traveling by golf cart was the perfect way to navigate the city’s narrow streets and cover a lot of ground without tiring out. Pietro made everything so smooth and enjoyable, and his fun, warm personality made us feel like we were sightseeing with a friend. This tour was the highlight of our trip, and Pietro truly made it special. If you're visiting Rome, do not miss this experience!

    Excellent guide, excellent tour

    Diane_C, Jul 2025
    This was exactly as advertised, the guide Ivana was excellent, kind, knowledgeable, funny and great company. The tour started and finished on time and we had plenty of time to see what we wanted

    Wonderful tour!!!

    Kimberly_S, Jul 2025
    Fantastic way to see all the sights and learn about the history of Rome. Highly recommend as a way to see Rome. Our guide Hadi, was so knowledgeable and even took us to one of the best places for Gelato. Our 10 year old loved it as well!

    Such a great way to see the sights of Rome. Our tour guide Marco was great! These tours are a must!!

    Great golf cart through Rome!

    SarahL_F, Jun 2025
    Our guide Sabrina was awesome! We had a great time. She offered to play music on her Bluetooth speaker and we had so much fun singing through Rome and enjoying the sights!

    Wonderful night experience.

    Julie_B, Jun 2025
    Matter was fantastic. He explained everything so clearly and in detail. It was a wonderful introduction to Rome

    The Best Way to Tour Rome!

    Michele_F, Jun 2025
    This is the BEST tour we have ever had of Rome. It is a great way to see a lot of Rome in one tour simply because the golf cart is able to travel through small local streets and skip the traffic. Our guide Gianluca was absolutely charming! With great humor and a treasure trove of information he led us on a comprehensive and enjoyable tour of a city he clearly loves. We have been to Rome several times, our friends were here the first time and we all agree that this is the best way to get an outstanding overview of Rome.

    Not very happy with this...

    Virginia_M, Jun 2025
    Not very happy with this tour and it was very pricy for what we got. The tour guide couldn't get to our hotel (not our fault) where we were supposed to be picked up and gave us an address to where we had to go to meet her. We practically ran on foot to try to find her last minute at the address where she sent us to and it was wrong. We were lost in a confusing city. She called us several times and we kept telling her the address where we were waiting and she couldn't find us. We talked several times by phone. After about an hour of back and fourth she finally called her supervisor and he called us. Made it sound like we were at fault. After us talking to her supervisor she finally found us. We waited and looked for her. As far as for the tour part, she flew by every where we were supposed to go and didn't even explain to us where we were even though I asked several times. The purpose of the tour for us was to learn the area and where every thing was. The tour was so rushed and short. Total blank. Very disappointed and feel it was a waste of our time and money.

    Love the golf cart!

    Michelle_H, May 2025
    On an end of life tour (stage 4 cancer) with my two daughters and my oldest daughter’s husband. Itinerary has included Venice, Florence, Rome, Catania, Sorrento, Naples. This tour was fantastic. I don’t have the best stamina-so the golf cart was fantastic. Driver(Sam I think?) was so great. Took us to see the city from high above. Took us to the Pantheon (and we got right in—no wait). Took us to beautiful fountains and buildings. Then went to Vatican—just to take a picture. Somehow we managed to go in through a back exit—and saw and heard The Pope giving his final prayers. I’m not Catholic or really even religious—but it was awe striking and humbling and quite the experience. Highly recommend. Great way to see city without having to walk miles and miles.

    Marcos the man!

    Cindy_B, May 2025
    Great for elderly or mobility issues. Our tour guide Marco, was truly the best. Very friendly, full of knowledge, and made our tour with elderly family members comfortable and accommodating. Definitely worth every penny.

    Upbeat, relaxing tour with gorgeous views!

    Genevieve_L, May 2025
    It was absolutely incredible. My family booked last second because we wanted to see the city but our feet were tired from a long day. What made the experience was the guide. He was kind, helpful, informative, and voluntarily took some great family photos! He even helped us find a taxi to our hotel which was far away within a few minutes, because he didn’t want to leave us waiting.

    We had the best time...

    Roy_G, May 2025
    We had the best time either Fransceo as our driver. He was very pleasant, knowledgable and provide us great recommendations for sightseeing and food. I highly recommend Viator and Fransceo!!! Thank you for such a memorable experience.

    Fiat Tour of Rome - Not your regular golf cart tour

    Tomm_M, Apr 2025
    The Fiat tour was a highlight of our trip. Our guide Francesco was incredible - so knowledgeable and offered just the right amount of information without overloading. He was enthusiastic and was happy to answer questions and offer deeper insights. The Fiat made the tour that much more fun - the small car allowed us to navigate the windy, narrow streets of Rome and the open top allowed us to see all the sites uninterrupted. Plus the yellow Fiat made for great photos!

    See a lot in a short time

    Kim_B, Nov 2024
    Our guide was wonderful. Very informative. Took us to spots we would never have reached on our own. Had great tips on how to get the best views and make the most of our time together.

    Fantastic experience!

    Allison_H, Nov 2024
    Claudio was first class. We loved our tour of Rome through this experience and would recommend to anyone who has limited time. We stopped at all the main locations and were given a robust history lesson throughout! What an experience!! So very grateful! Loved it!!!

    The Highlight of Our Time in Rome - Do It!

    Nicole_M, Nov 2024
    Francesco was our incredible guide. We opted for the Fiat 500 and everyone on the streets of Rome turned their heads when we zipped through the alleys and streets from place to place. My mother and I took this tour immediately upon our arrival from Washington DC, and it was the perfect introduction to the city to get our bearings and ensure we saw the many highlights in the limited 48 hours we had available. Francesco, knowing we were hungry from our flight, stopped at his local favorite shop and bought us all "suppli" for lunch which was an amazing treat. He recommended a great gelateria near the Spanish Steps as well which we sampled pistachio gelato and a cannolo. This was an experience to remember for life. Francesco is passionate about his hometown and an absolute gentleman, not to mention handsome! An unforgettable afternoon. Thank you Francesco!

    Marco is a fantastic guide!!

    Tami_A, Oct 2024
    Marco was our driver and guide. He was fantastic. Provided great communication on our agreed-upon pick-up location. His English was excellent, great sense of humor and tailored our tour to spots our group had not yet seen. That was very helpful. He also gave us suggestions on sites to see later that evening. Marco’s suggestions and itinerary were perfect. Our group enjoyed every minute.

    Could be good

    Bethany_B, Oct 2024
    While the convenience of driving to many sites was helpful, the tour did not stop at all the sites listed in the itinerary, and it was nearly impossible to hear the guide because there weren’t speakers or listening devices. Our guide’s English was very difficult to understand when we could hear him. If you can find a tour company that provides listening devices or a speaker on the golf cart, it is worth the price for the convenience, just know you may not stop at all the places expected. This was by far our worst tour in Rome.

    Good

    william_s, Oct 2024
    It was all interesting and good, however, though our guide was very knowledgeable and interactive, we could not understand him most of the time. This made our tour much less worth the price that we paid.

    Wonderfull!

    Robert_B, Oct 2024
    Wonderfully! Frances the co was a fountain of knowledge. The views of city were great. Francesco knew every back alley way to get around.
