This was a great experience. A quick way to see highlights. Tickets to see the Trevi Fountain. Views of the Spanish Steps, the Pantheon. A walkthrough of Piazza Navona. Our guide pointed out places to shop, eat along the way. Angelica was excellent.

Giulio Foccardi was absolutely awesome. He picked us up at our hotel. He even recommended a place to eat and made reservations for us. Dropped us off there as we were the only ones on excursion. His knowledge and history of the sites we saw and more was great. He tailored to us. You won't be disappointed.

Only way to start a trip to Rome

Lyn_k, Oct 2026
Really got a feel for the entire city of Rome and helped us make decisions on what we wanted to see more of

The best way to see Rome

Jennifer_B, Oct 2026
This was my third trip to Rome and my mum's first. I wanted her to see as much as possible as we were only spending 2 whole days there and I saw this as an option. I cannot recommend this tour enough. We covered so much ground and saw so much! Our guide, Lorcan, was super friendly and so knowledgeable. He picked out the good things and also the things that might not be noticed by the standard tourist guide. My mum loved it and felt like she saw everything she wanted to. He negotiated busy, narrow roads like a pro, also navigating around local protests. Thank you Lorcan!

Must do in Rome

Michael_A, Oct 2026
This was a great way to tour Rome at your pace. We went to all the major places and wanted a different experience. Our guide was awesome and was so knowledgeable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and highly recommend it. Wish it was longer cause we had such a great time.

My husband and I were...

Sandra_D, Oct 2026
My husband and I were whisked around Rome in a sturdy golf cart; our charming driver parked in unusual spots. Every single one was a short walk to a major Rome landmark; we viewed them from above, from the side. The views were fantastic; our guide gave us a short talk on its significance. It was a pleasant and efficient 3-hour tour. I highly recomment this tour!

Good English speaking guide

LUCAS_L, Oct 2026
Guide studied History and knows a lot about the history of every spot. We learned more than we expected. Worth every single penny, if you are lucky to get this guide.

Great Experience

Alexander_P, Oct 2026
Our family really enjoyed the golf car tour, Francesca was very accommodating and informative, had great knowledgeable of all the sites in Rome. My family and I highly recommend the tour and Francesca.

Nico’s Expert Tour of Rome

Anonymous, Oct 2026
Nico was outstanding! He arrived on time, he took 5 minutes and he had a unique tour set up for us because we had done so many things already. We were able to see more on the outskirts of the city and then he dropped us right in front of our next adventure for the evening! Nico was informative and great fun! Very easy to talk to, and he gave great information! Outstanding!

Jeff_G, Oct 2026
Unfortunately there were protests in Rome on the night of our tour. We were nervous about going out. Beatrice met us at our hotel and told us that she wanted us to feel safe and comfortable. She said we could call the company to discuss canceling and a possible refund if we wanted since this was an unusual situation. We decided to proceed with the tour with an agreement that we would go to safe areas and return home if we ever felt unsafe. The tour turned out to be great. She brought us to some wonderful areas of the city. It was beautiful, and we got to learn interesting facts and ask more questions. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. I really wish we could have her show us around for a full day, but I don’t think that was within our budget even if it is an option. So much nicer to have a guide just for us than in a big group, and we never would have gone to most of these parts of the city if we didn’t take this tour. The only downside at all were the protests. Most people probably won’t encounter that I figure, so I recommend this. If you get Beatrice as a guide I think you’ll enjoy it.

Very friendly and...

Very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. The experience was amazing. Even on a 3 hour tour, received a very good overview of Rome.

A Highlight of our Trip to Rome!

Janet_B, Oct 2026
Lena picked us up at our hotel for a wonderful custom excursion. I had made a screenshot of all the sights on the long tour. Knowing that the evening tour was shorter, I put a star by those most important to us. She quickly planned a route to see those that were open or well-lit. The electric golf cart quietly but quickly brought us to a bridge near the Colosseum, for fantastic pictures. Off we went to The Wedding Cake, Basilica of St. Agnes, the Turtle Fountain, Circus Maximus, the Spanish Steps, and the Jewish quarter. Lena provided history, culture, and information about everyday life. She was an expert driver in the traffic and shared that the night tours covered so much more than the crowded daytime streets. We went down tiny alleys and into areas for a broad scenic overview that was jaw-dropping. We thoroughly enjoyed Lena, the city of Rome, and the chance to customize this private tour.

The Best Way to Experience Rome with an Exceptional Guide

LauraLee_E, Oct 2026
Our golf cart tour of Rome with Luca was one of the highlights of our visit. It was a fun, comfortable, and unique way to experience the city, especially while covering a variety of sites in a relatively short amount of time. What made the tour truly special was Luca's ability to tailor the experience to our interests while also sharing his own recommendations. His knowledge of Rome, its history, and its culture was exceptional, and he brought each stop to life with fascinating stories and insights. To top it all off, Luca arranged lunch for us at a family-owned restaurant where we enjoyed delicious homemade pasta and authentic Italian hospitality. It was the perfect ending to an outstanding day. If you're looking for a personalized introduction to Rome with a guide who is passionate, knowledgeable, and eager to create a memorable experience, we highly recommend Luca's tour. Chef's kiss! 👌✨

Queenie_P, Oct 2026
Our guide Nico was very pleasant. He arrived on time, very friendly, knowledgeable and patient with me and my family including a 7 and 10 year old. We were so impressed with so many places that he could fit in within 3hrs. Definitely couldn’t do it without Nico’s help. Highly recommended.

Beatrice was excellent. She drove us around to key sites and explained so much of the history. At the end she even recommended a place to eat dinner and brought us into the restaurant.

Perfect for everyone!

StaceyVictoria_M, Oct 2026
Perfect for a quick overview of Rome and the incredible sights, especially if you’re travelling with kids, older adults, and people with chronic illness/disability. It was an absolute hit!

Less strenuous method of seeing the Roman landmarks. Gets you up close. Very interesting to learn so much history.

Debra_V, Oct 2026
Francesca was an amazing tour guide! Her passion for the architecture and art showed in her face as she delivered her knowledge about the history of Rome with great enthusiasm. She was very flexible with the schedule and made sure we got to see what we wanted to. We loved our tour!
