Really great experience, we trusted the guide’s judgement but could also tailor the tour as we liked. Julius was fantastic, he had studied Ancient Roman history so had a wealth of knowledge which appealed to my son studying classics. They chatted a lot! Really fun tour, more than your average tourist tour. Would highly recommend. We felt well looked after and learnt so much!

This is the best tour! Private, customizable, flexible. You can hit all the main highlights and some of the lesser known gems of the huge city of Rome. Eugene was the absolute best! He was so friendly, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He made this tour an experience my family will never forget. Both of our kids keep saying this was the best tour! Just book it!

Wonderful Experience

Myrna_F, May 2026
Awesome! We did this the exact day we arrived in Rome after a very long day of traveling, and it was absolutely perfect. It was the best way to unwind and kick off our vacation. We wished it had been a little bit longer! Highly recommended

Fabulous way to explore Rome

NICOLA_G, May 2026
Great 3 hours discovering Rome! We already had trips booked to the Colosseum and the Vatican so Gabriel did a great tour of all the sights we wouldn’t have easily found otherwise from ancient churches and ruins to amazing views. Gabriel was a great host and we had a great time! Thank you.

Joe_K, May 2026
Amazing way to see Rome. This was our first time visiting the city and this is a great way to view many places in a short time. Val was awesome, his tour was entertaining and educational. Highly recommend.

A wonderful tour with Lorcan!

Holly_T, May 2026
We booked a private golf cart tour as we were short on time. Lorcan, was very knowledgeable and provided us with insight to all of Rome’s attractions and tailored the tour to meet our interests. It was very informative, explaining what we were seeing and even went the extra mile in showing us what I may have looked like ‘back in the day’. He was full of information and even knew about the hidden gems of Rome. This was a wonderful experience and we would highly recommend it to others!

John_K, May 2026
Great way to see Rome. Did a walking tour last time so thought might see a little more with a golf cart and truly did. Even when we saw something we had seen we saw it from a different vantage point. Saw the Spanish steps from the top! And saw church in town that we had never seen before also. Highly recommend tour and guide lorcan.

Loved it!

Evelyn_S, May 2026
We had heard taking a golf cart tour was the way to see Rome if you are short on time. It was so much more than a tour. We had a wonderful time! Our tour guide, Val, was so accommodating that we hated to say goodbye. I would definitely recommend his tour and tour guide: No scary driving, lol.

Great way to see Rome.

Jerry_O, May 2026
Best way to experience ALOT of Rome without all the walking. Our guide Angelica was awesome, so much knowledge of Ancient Rome and present Rome. Took us to a great local restaurant and a great coffee stop. We booked a 7 hour trip and were so glad for the extra time to make many mores stops.

Unforgettable Day in Roma!

Laura_H, May 2026
We had a fantastic golf cart tour of Rome with our guide, Hilaria! She was lovely, incredibly knowledgeable, and clearly knew the city inside and out. We specifically asked to see some of her favorite hidden gems around Rome, and she absolutely delivered while making the experience fun and engaging the entire time. One of the highlights was when she took us to her favorite gelato spot — and it definitely did not disappoint! Hilaria was kind, informative, and made us feel like we were exploring the city with a local friend. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a unique and memorable way to experience Rome.

Angelica was fantastic!...

Diane_D, May 2026
Angelica was fantastic! She took us by all our desired locations and more! We learned so much more about Rome and discovered some hidden gems. A great way to see so much more of Rome in a short period time, with easy transportation. 1000% recommended!

Golf cart tour Rome

Michael_C, May 2026
This was a very enjoyable and informative tour of the city of Rome. Our tour Guy was very not eligible and provided us with a great day. He took us to places we never would’ve thought of and was patient with us with all our questions. I would recommend this tour to anybody out there and give it a five star rating.

Best guide ever

Anna_V, May 2026
We had so much fun on the golf cart tour with Julio! He was a wealth of knowledge and such a fun guy. The golf cart tour was surprisingly fast and a bit of a roller coaster, going up and down on the hills of Rome. We saw the sunset over the best views of the city. This tour exceeded our expectations, and I would recommend it to anybody.

Mary_L, May 2026
Excellent tour that can be personalized to your preferences. Nico was very knowledgeable and shared his passion for art.

Rita_F, May 2026
Excellent tour for your first day in Rome. Our guide, Oscar, was terrific! He spoke perfect English and being a former teacher, his knowledge was amazing but he wasn’t pedantic. He’s a delightful young man. And the included lunch was delicious.

Book this!

Susan_R, May 2026
Excellent! Book this asap! The tour guide was super flexible and adjusted the tour based on what we had already seen and wanted to focus on. Lots of history and plenty of stops to get off and enjoy the Beautiful sights!

Great guide Francesca

John_B, May 2026
Great way to get an overview of Rome and see the main sights in a short time period. Our guide Francesca was amazing., knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. Golf cart is a little bumpy on some of the old streets but not too bad.
