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!

Our guide, Alex was amazing! He took us to parts of the city we would have never thought to visit and gave us brief descriptions of each site. He also gave us wonderful restaurant recommendations and went out of the way to show us amazing city views. It was a great way to see Rome!

Great Experience

Ben_B, Mar 2026
Great personalised tour through Rome visiting the famous landmarks as well as several hidden gems. Angelina was a great guide, knowledgeable, and a sense of fun

Great first day activity!

Tatiana_R, Mar 2026
Our guide, Val, was so engaging and made it a great trip from my family. Perhaps because of his teaching background, but he made everything so much fun to learn. It’s a great first day experience when you are jet lagged and want someone else to take yhe reigns. Also left us at a great restaurant near our hotel for dinner. We did it the first night we were there. Highly recommend as a first day easy activity that makes you feel you got to take advantage of the day regardless of tiredness.

Great Tour!

Jacob_N, Mar 2026
Angelica was awesome, knowledgable, and enthusiastic. This was a great way to start our trip in Rome since we could scope out all of the spots and exude where we wanted to spend more time.

Best on wheels

Elsie_S, Mar 2026
Hilary was amazing. Best experience in Rome. She was knowledgeable and personalized our tour to our wants. We booked a : hour tour and only sorry we hadn’t booked the longer one. Absolutely a must in Rome.

Great family adventure

Melissa_M, Mar 2026
We had a great night with Angelica! She was perfect for our family and was knowledgeable about so many areas we visited. Highly recommend as a way to get to the know city at the beginning of your trip.

Fun way to see the city

Erica_R, Mar 2026
Our driver was very flexible about what to do - we saw three very busy sites (Trevi Fountain, Pantheon, Spanish steps). But the more interesting part of the tour was more obscure sites with sightseeing mixed with art history.

Great time!

Corie_L, Mar 2026
This was a great way to see the city! We did it on our first day and it helped us hit some highlights and know where we wanted to go back to the following days. Informative and friendly guide!

Only Golf Cart Tour you want! Forget the others!

JOSEPH_F, Mar 2026
We had an amazing experience with Julius from RollingRome during our golf cart tour in Rome. From the start, he was friendly, professional, and clearly very knowledgeable about the city. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and that energy made the whole tour even better. Julius took us to all the major landmarks, but what really stood out were the little hidden spots and local insights he shared along the way. It didn’t feel like a typical tourist tour at all. It felt more personal and relaxed, like being shown around by someone who truly knows and loves Rome. He was also very accommodating, making sure we were comfortable the entire time and adjusting the pace based on what we wanted to see. Traveling with family can sometimes be stressful, but this was honestly one of the easiest and most enjoyable parts of our trip. If you’re visiting Rome and want a fun, informative, and stress free way to see the city, I highly recommend booking a tour with Julius at RollingRome. It was 100% worth it.

Private Tour Through Rome

Jonathan_W, Mar 2026
I had a great time with Ilaria! She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. It was neat to see areas that one wouldn’t normally go to in Rome. I am very happy that she was part of my journey through Italy.

Great experience' Driver...

joseph_w, Mar 2026
Great experience' Driver was professional and was very knowledgeable of the history and local culture

Rome Golf Cart ALL day Tour with Guillo

Melanie_F, Mar 2026
Guillo our amazing tour guide took us on a beautiful journey through Roma. He navigated that golf cart with like a pro all while sharing his historical knowledge of this ancient city. He had a lovely sense of humor which made this a tour we would all highly recommend if you should want a full day of sights and sounds of Roma. The lunch at a local restaurant Enoteca Corsi was delicious which also insured a gluten free lunch for one member of our party. Thank you Guillo for a memorable day… wishing you all the best!

Fun, customizable way to see Rome!

Michael_B, Mar 2026
It’s a fun way to see Rome. It’s completely customizable to what you want to see. We had a couple things we wanted to see, and then our guide did a good job of recommending things based on wait times (he took us places that were historical and interesting that didn’t have long waits). It was a great way to see Rome!

Great for families! Gabriel was awesome!

Diana_S, Mar 2026
Gabriel was an amazing guide. He was so personable and knowledgeable. We were traveling with 3 small children and a grandmother. We were able to see all the major sights in one afternoon. It was thrilling to ride through the streets of Rome in a golf cart. We loved this tour.

Current Roman Chariot (golf cart tour)!

Joe_W, Mar 2026
This golf cart tour was an intimate way to experience the sites with historical information provided the entire time. It would have taken over a day to see everything we saw in 3.5 hours

Fun way to see Rome

Ellen_S, Mar 2026
Amazing tour around Rome with Julio who was so knowledgeable and funny. The best way to see Rome and get a sense of the history. Only down side was no speaker to hear guide when sitting at back making it hard to hear what’s being said.

Great experience to see...

Allison_S, Mar 2026
Great experience to see all the highlights. We booked this the same day we arrived and they were very accommodating to start later when we had delays. Highly recommend!!

Natasha_W, Mar 2026
Great tour and sites of the city! Alessandro was fantastic! Gave a little taste of everything in the Rome!

A nice excursion of you have the time

Andrew_A, Mar 2026
This is a terrific way to get a sense of the city. We did a night tour which was because it lined up with our timing. Our guide Beatrice was super knowledgeable and accommodating of our requests and questions.

Amazing guide!!

Kristofor_S, Mar 2026
Our guide, Alex was amazing! He took us to parts of the city we would have never thought to visit and gave us brief descriptions of each site. He also gave us wonderful restaurant recommendations and went out of the way to show us amazing city views. It was a great way to see Rome!

The driver was very good and tried to accommodate us with all the rain. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Loved the sites

Debby_A, Mar 2026
Only 4 of us were covered from the rain. Needs to have the option to put up the sides. But there was no back cover We did stay dry with an umbrella over our legs

Fun evening

jasonirvine8, Mar 2026
Great way to see the city our guide Julius was great. I would highly recommend the night tour. City is different in the dark.

Highly Recommend Nico!

Anthony_F, Mar 2026
We had the absolute pleasure of traveling Rome with Nico, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the moment we met, it was clear that Nico is not only incredibly knowledgeable about Rome’s history, art, and architecture, but also deeply passionate about sharing it in a way that brings the city to life. What made the experience truly exceptional was Nico’s ability to weave fascinating stories, historical context, and local insights into every stop along the way. He has a remarkable gift for explaining complex history in a way that is engaging, memorable, and often entertaining. Whether we were standing in front of ancient ruins, wandering through charming side streets, or discussing masterpieces of art, Nico made every moment feel meaningful. Beyond his expertise, Nico was warm, personable, and attentive to our interests. He tailored the tour perfectly, pacing it well and making sure we had time to appreciate each site without ever feeling rushed. His enthusiasm for Rome is contagious—you leave the tour not only better informed, but truly inspired by the city. If you’re looking for a guide who combines deep knowledge, professionalism, and genuine hospitality, Nico is simply outstanding. Touring Rome with him was one of the highlights of our trip, and we would recommend him without hesitation to anyone wanting an unforgettable experience in this extraordinary city.

Book this one

Elizabeth_G, Mar 2026
My husband and I always book at least one tour in a new city that uses some type of agile transportation (Segway, sedan, golf cart). Our guide Gabriel was wonderful. His English was great and super knowledgeable. He said it helped that we came having done some research into notable spots. He was able to pivot in the moment to find great lookout spots that are off the beaten path.

Beyond the landmarks

Paul_T, Mar 2026
A very detailed and informative tour with a surprisingly good lunch to boot. Time to stop and ge t close up to views etc and stretch your legs although the golf ca rt was remarkably comfortable

Excellent way to see Rome and its hidden gems.

Brenda_H, Mar 2026
Our tour guide picked us up at our hotel and gave us a memorable tour of places we would not have seen on our own. It made our trip to Rome a memorable experience seeing the hidden gems of the city. The knowledge of our guide and ease of understanding were appreciated. He accommodated the tour according to what we wanted to see. Highly recommend.

Great way to see Rome

Debbie_R, Mar 2026
The golf buggy tour in Rome was a fantastic way to explore the city. It was comfortable, fun, and perfect for seeing many famous sights without the long walks. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, sharing interesting stories about the history and culture of Rome along the way. The buggy made it easy to navigate the narrow streets and stop at beautiful viewpoints. Overall, it was a relaxing and memorable experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a unique way to discover Rome.

Rome!

Elizabeth_G, Mar 2026
My family took this tour in the evening! Our guide customized the tour, showing both what we expected and additional sites we didn’t know existed. Rome is beautiful at night.

Rome with Nico

Nancy_R, Mar 2026
Nico was knowledgeable, experienced and flexible! Despite the rain we saw many great sites and even stopped for a treat at a favorite bakery.

Great sites with a great guide !!!

Andrew_H, Mar 2026
Gabriel was a fantastic guide. Funny, spirited, and took us to spots in Rome tourists don’t know to go see. Would recommend to anyone.

Best Rome Overview

Susan_L, Mar 2026
This was the best Rome tour, especially for first-timers! Lorcan was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and kind. He took us to all of the main sites that we wanted to see and let us spend as much time as we wanted to. He also had fascinating stories and insights to share about Rome! We also very much appreciated his safety warning, especially about pick-pockets.
