Description

Golf Cart Tour is a unique experience. You’ll see classical monuments, town squares, and fountains the way they’re meant to be seen. We’ll introduce you to colourful side streets and more. We stop at each location so you can take in its beauty, walk in the buildings, and explore the area, instead of going through the main streets where there’s traffic, noise, fumes, and other tourists. We will drive on the quaint back streets to get to the main attractions.

The Column of Marcus Aurelius and Faustina which stands in Piazza Colonna in Rome is thought to have been erected by Commodus in memory of his father and mother sometime around 180 CE. The column carries representations carved in high relief of the emperor's successful military campaigns against the Quadi across the Danube between 172 and 175 CE.

10 min

Located between Via del Corso and Via dei Fori Imperiali, Piazza Venezia derives its shape from the remaking of the area, which took place at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, for the construction of the Monumento a Vittorio Emanuele II.

5 min

LONG BEFORE THE MODERN LIE detector and its harmlessly jittering graphs and wires were invented, the superstitious and untruthful faced a much more severe fate between the jaws of the Bocca della Verità, or Mouth of Truth, an ancient carving which is said to bite the hands off of liars.

Pass by

The Temple of Hercules is the only surviving sacred structure in ancient Rome that was made of Greek marble. Located in the Forum Boarium on the eastern bank of the Tiber, it is one of the oldest extant buildings in the city and is thought to be the work of the Greek architect Hermodoros of Salamina.

15 min

Piazza Navona is one of the most beautiful and famous squares in the centre of Rome. In 86 CE, emperor Domitian commissioned this square with its unique, elongated shape. This shape is the result of its original function as the stadium for athletics competitions (Circus Agonalis) with stands for 20,000 spectators. The Pantheon is one of the most majestic architectural and historical sites in the heart of Rome. Dated about the early second century AD, it is one of the best-preserved historic buildings and testifies Roman building techniques’ superiority. Its dome with its unique central hole, the “oculus,” is the greatest ever built in masonry. The Pantheon is one of Rome’s best attractions and is one of the Italian capital’s architectural masterpieces.
