The experience

Hands gripping the little steering bar, I felt like a kid again as our golf cart zipped out from the curb near Piazza Navona. Our guide, Marco, waved at a passing delivery guy and then pointed out how the cobblestones here are older than most countries. The air smelled faintly of coffee and exhaust, very Roman combo. We’d barely started when he detoured so we could toss coins in the Trevi Fountain before the crowds arrived. He said it’s good luck if you do it with your left hand over your right shoulder. I tried, missed the first time, and Marco just grinned. “Try again, Rome always gives second chances.”

We rolled past sleepy Campo de’ Fiori (still some flower petals on the stones), then stopped for a quick espresso at a tiny bar Marco swore was “the best in Trastevere.” He introduced us to the owner, I think her name was Lucia? She gave me a biscotto for free because I tried to order in Italian (badly). The Pantheon was next. Its dome somehow more impressive up close than in any photo. The sun cut through the oculus and landed right on Raphael’s tomb. It was quieter inside than I expected, almost soft: people whispering or just staring up.

At Piazza della Bocca della Verità, Marco dared us to stick our hands in the mouth (I hesitated longer than I’ll admit). There were school kids laughing nearby, their teacher trying to wrangle them for a group photo but giving up after a minute. By Circus Maximus you could smell grass and see joggers weaving between old stones. We didn’t walk much at all. That’s honestly what made this private golf cart tour of Rome so easy for my dad, who hates stairs.

The last bit took us up Janiculum Hill for this wide-open view of domes and rooftops: hazy but golden in late morning. Marco told us stories about Garibaldi that I half-remember now. What stuck with me is how proud he sounded talking about his city. When we got dropped off near Piazza del Popolo (our choice), I realized we’d seen half of Rome without ever feeling rushed or tired. Still think about that espresso sometimes.
