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!

Our guide Sevada was incredibly informative, and she clearly knew what she was doing when she explained St. Peter’s Basilica. The church itself is breathtaking full of history, art, and spiritual meaning. The kids really enjoyed her too, especially her fun little pop quiz. I would definitely recommend her.

Overview

Rome’s historic center sprawls across a large area, making it time-consuming to navigate on foot. Go where bigger vehicles can’t on this highlights tour by a maneuverable golf cart that offers wraparound views through its open sides. See highlights such as Vatican City, the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, and the Spanish Steps, while your driver immortalizes your experience with photos. Upgrade to add round-trip transfers from select central Rome hotels.
  • Enjoy panoramic views of Rome from the Pincio Gardens
  • There’s no need to bring the selfie stick—your driver captures photos
  • An electric golf cart is a cleaner, greener choice than gas-powered vehicles
  • Flexible itinerary adapts to the weather, season, and any access constraints

Dan, our golf-cart guide, made an effort to find locations that we had not seen yet. This was very much appreciated. He also provided interesting details about the monuments. We would recommend this tour (and guide) without reservation. Also, Viator was very responsive in booking us on a later tour when, despite having received confirmation, we learned that our booking had not been received by the local tour company. Two thumbs up for Viator!

Amazing guide

mguerrawalters, Sept 2026
Sam was an amazing guide. So knowledgeable and friendly showing all the important sights Would definitely recommend him.

Was overall good...

DeeAnn_T, Sept 2026
Was overall good experience but the tour guide needed to have a mic as we couldn’t hear what he said.

Alex was incredible!

Jody_K, Aug 2026
We had a short stay in Rome before heading out on a cruise. This tour was the best way to see everything we wanted with ease and in one day! Would recommend if you want to get a lot done in a short time. Alex was an amazing guide, very knowledgeable and went above and beyond for us!!!

What a hoot!

Thomas_M, Aug 2026
We had a free afternoon in Rome and were looking for a low-stress way to see the sites. This wonderful golf cart tour was perfect for us. Andy, our guide, was personable and a great driver through the chaos of Rome. Pacing and length of tour were just right. We saw the Spanish Steps, St. Peter's Square, the Colosseum, Pantheon, Trevi Fountail, etc all while zipping around town. There were stops made at each of the sites for some quick individual exploration. Super fun!

Great tour

debra_k, Aug 2026
Augusto was extremely knowledgeable throughout the tour. Had a great day and would highly recommend this

Jimmy knew all the back...

Andrea_T, Aug 2026
Jimmy knew all the back streets and parking places to get us up close to everywhere. Would have also appreciated a commentary on where we were along the way. We were able to walk around spots for 10 mins or so and google information but I had thought this would be part of the experience on the tour Good way to see places without all the walking on a hot day. Thanks

The cart was 10 min late at the pick up .Robero was nice,but hardly even talked to us. On his phone even while driving.j

Lynda_W, Aug 2026
When no one was showing up I kept trying to call Viatar. To many options and never the right one for us.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Dear Lynda, Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you found Roberto pleasant, although we regret that the level of interaction did not meet your expectations. A short delay can occasionally occur in central Rome due to traffic and road conditions. Regarding your attempts to make contact, your review specifically refers to difficulties reaching Viator through its telephone system, which is managed directly by the booking platform and is outside the operator's control. Your comments regarding the driver's communication during the experience have been noted and will be reviewed internally. Kind regards, Luxurbe Team

Great way to see the city

Karyn_H, Aug 2026
What a great way to see a lot of the city, especially on an hot day. Our guide, Dino, was fantastic. He was flexible in where he took us depending on where we wanted to go. He was very knowledgeable and personable. His English was very good. If you are ever in Rome, definitely take this tour.

Convenient pick up and...

Kim_S, Aug 2026
Convenient pick up and drop off. Accommodating to our preferences and needs! Driver was fun and friendly!

Amazing!

lisa_T, Aug 2026
Sa was amazingly interesting about local culture history and the people of Roma he took the time to explain the multiple sites we visited during our stay the golf cart was clean and the family with us had young children he took time to engage the tour with. I’d highly recommend this tour -we didn’t have much time in Rome to begin with and after a long flight this was much better way to see Rome than a blaring tour in 100degree weather

Golf cart tour

Martha_B, Aug 2026
It was a great way to see many sights around Rome! Our guide was very informative and friendly. We really enjoyed it!

The tour was excellent....

Eleonora_B, Aug 2026
The tour was excellent. The driver spoke English very well. He took us to places that are less touristy and we got to see places we never would alone.

Worth It for time pressed visitors

Edward_B, Aug 2026
Wonderful experience, got up close to many major Rome attractions and driver took photos of us, recommended for those with only 1 day to see Rome

Rome via Golf Cart

scott_j, Aug 2026
Great way to see all the sights in Rome! Traveled around and saw the major sites with ease. You can then return on subsequent days and explore in more detail.

Didn’t bother to turn up or contact us

Neil_I, Aug 2026
They didn’t show up waited for over an hour in the blistering sun. Rang the organiser and was told they would call us back, they didn’t and eventually after another 30 mins managed to contact them to be given a ridiculous story that the driver had an accident. We were at location when all the golf carts arrived stood with another 15-16 people and it was one of there own drivers who gave us the contact number and admitted this has happened before. Take my advice pay a bit extra and go with someone else who will not spoil your day in Rome.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely regret that unforeseen operational circumstances prevented your tour from taking place as planned. As you mention, you were informed that the driver had been involved in an accident. The safety of our guests, drivers, and all road users must always take priority over the continuation of a scheduled tour. We are also unable to verify the statements attributed to another individual regarding previous experiences, as these constitute second-hand information rather than facts directly experienced by you. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for the inconvenience caused. Kind regards, Luxurbe Team

Great day 1 activity

CATHERINE_P, Aug 2026
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.

Must tour with Jack

Amy_P, Aug 2026
Jack was a great travel guide and safe driver. We would definitely recommend him for anyone exploring Rome. He is very knowledgeable friendly.

First time in Rome

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.

Rome in 3 hours

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

Disappointing Experience – Drive-By Sightseeing with Zero Historical Depth

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.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

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. Kind regards, Luxurbe Team

Fun experience.

Kimberly_B, Jul 2026
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.

Matt was AWESOME! Must do tour!

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!

Rome Golf Cart Tour With Sara

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!

The only choice for a hot day!

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.

Best way to start your trip !

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 .

Good for jump starting your trip to Rome!

Jimmy is the best

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.

Andy is the BEST!!!

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!!!!

See Rome In A Day!

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.
