Rome Highlights by Golf Cart Private Tour

See Rome's landmarks from a golf cart instead of walking between them.

You choose between a 3-hour highlights tour, a 90-minute quick version, a 2-hour evening route, a 5-hour tour with lunch, or a food-focused option. Groups of 6 to 10 people ride on two or three carts depending on size.

The experience

You start at your hotel in Rome's historical center and spend three hours (or less, depending on the option you pick) moving between the city's most recognizable monuments without the fatigue of walking. The golf cart keeps you comfortable while your guide explains what you're seeing: the Pantheon's 2,000-year history, the legends behind Trevi Fountain, the marble relief of Trajan's Column, the ruins of Circus Maximus where chariot races once ran. You'll stop at Piazza Navona long enough to take in Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers and the two churches there, then move through the Roman Forum, past Palatine Hill, and around the Colosseum. The route also includes the Theater of Marcellus, Forum Boarium's two Roman temples, Castel Sant'Angelo, and the Mouth of Truth: the legendary stone face in Piazza della Bocca della Verità.

Entry to Trevi Fountain is included, so you don't buy a ticket separately. Gelato and bottled water come with the tour. If you're traveling with infants or small children, specialized seats and strollers are available. Just let the operator know beforehand. The tour is private to your group, and you're dropped back at your hotel when it's done. If your group is 6 to 8 people, you'll ride on two carts. Groups of 9 to 10 use two or three.

The five options let you shape the day around what matters to you. The 3-hour Best of Rome tour hits all the main sights. The 90-minute quick discovery cuts the stops but keeps the essentials. The 2-hour evening tour follows a shorter route. If you want to eat, the 5-hour tour with lunch gives you time at a restaurant, or the food tour option focuses on traditional Roman specialties instead of monuments. Your guide speaks English, Spanish or Italian depending on which you choose at checkout.

Is this one for you?Choose the 3-hour tour if you want to see all the main sights with time to absorb each one. Pick the 90-minute version if you're short on time but don't want to skip Rome's iconic landmarks. The 5-hour option with lunch suits a slower pace and a meal break, while the evening tour works if you'd rather explore after the daytime crowds thin out.

Top questions

What languages is the guide in?

Live guide in English, Spanish and Italian.

What is the Mouth of Truth, and why do people stop there?

The Mouth of Truth is a legendary stone face in Piazza della Bocca della Verità. According to Roman legend, if you put your hand in its mouth and tell a lie, it will bite off your hand, so the stop is as much about the story as the sculpture itself.

Does the tour include entry to the Colosseum or the Roman Forum?

No. The tour is sightseeing only. Entry to museums and archaeological sites like the Colosseum and Roman Forum is not included. You see them from outside and hear about them from your guide, but you don't go inside.

Can I book a pickup from Rome airport or a cruise port?

No. Pickup is only available at hotel addresses in Rome's historical center, within the ZIP codes 00184, 00186 and 00187. Airport and cruise port pickups are not available.

What's the difference between the 3-hour tour and the 90-minute quick discovery?

The 3-hour Best of Rome tour covers all the main highlights with longer stops at each site. The 90-minute quick discovery hits the same landmarks but with shorter time at each one, so you see more in less time.

Is the tour accessible for people with mobility issues?

Yes. The tour is wheelchair accessible, and the golf cart itself is a comfortable, seated way to move around the city without walking long distances between stops.

What do I need to bring or know before the tour starts?

Bring comfortable clothes and sunscreen. If you're traveling with infants or small children, let the operator know in advance so they can have specialized seats or stroller space ready. Gelato and bottled water are provided.
