Castel Sant'Angelo is one of Rome's most iconic fortresses, built as the mausoleum of Emperor Hadrian and later transformed into a papal residence. It dominates the Tiber with its imposing circular silhouette, connected to the Vatican by the famous Passetto.
St. Peter's Square is the spiritual heart of the Catholic world, embraced by Bernini's majestic colonnade. Before you stands St. Peter's Basilica, masterpiece of Michelangelo and destination for pilgrims from all over the world.
(OPTIONAL) The Janiculum Fountain is one of Rome's most evocative viewpoints, immortalized in the opening scene of "The Great Beauty". From here your gaze embraces the entire Eternal City in a breathtaking view.
In the heart of Trastevere, the Peroni Store celebrates the historic Italian beer founded in 1846. A space where tradition and design meet — perfect for a short stop between shopping and discovering the story of a brand that symbolises Italian craftsmanship.
The Mouth of Truth is one of Rome's most famous legends, carved in the marble of the church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin. Made famous by the film "Roman Holiday", it continues to fascinate visitors from all over the world.
(OPZIONALE) Il Buco della Serratura dell'Aventino è uno dei segreti più affascinanti di Roma: dalla serratura del portone dei Cavalieri di Malta si intravede la cupola di San Pietro perfettamente incorniciata. Una vista magica e sorprendente.
The Colosseum is the eternal symbol of Rome and the largest amphitheater ever built, capable of holding over 50,000 spectators. Next to it, the Arch of Constantine celebrates the victory of 312 AD and marks the passage to Christian Rome.
The beating heart of the capital, Piazza Venezia is dominated by the imposing Altar of the Fatherland, symbol of Italian national unity. A crossroads where ancient, Risorgimento, and contemporary history meet in a single glance.
The Pantheon is one of the best-preserved monuments of ancient Rome, famous for its grand dome. A timeless place that captivates with harmony and perfection, perfect for a break in the heart of the city.
The Trevi Fountain is the most famous Baroque fountain in the world, a masterpiece by Nicola Salvi. According to legend, anyone who tosses a coin into the water over their left shoulder is destined to return to the Eternal City.
Piazza Navona, a renowned square in Rome, captivates with its Baroque elegance. Home to Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi and vibrant cafes, it's a cultural hub adorned with art and fountains. The lively atmosphere and historic charm make Piazza Navona a must-visit destination, where visitors can immerse themselves in the city's rich history and architectural splendor.
The Trinità dei Monti staircase is one of the most elegant symbols of Rome, seen from the top of the Pincio in a unique perspective. From here the view opens onto one of the most evocative panoramas of the city.
Villa Borghese is Rome's largest and most beloved urban park, a green oasis of gardens, fountains, and tree-lined avenues. A corner of tranquility offering a relaxing conclusion immersed in the nature of the Eternal City.
The Circus Maximus was the largest arena for chariot races in ancient Rome, with capacity for up to 250,000 spectators. Today a vast green valley that evokes the spectacle and passion of the original Ben Hur.

Our tour guide Andy was great! Very friendly, knowledgeable and eager to share the history of Rome. The description on Viator of the itinerary did not exactly match what we saw. Only major disappointment was having to ride backwards which caused a little car sickness due to the speed and turns, and was a little disorienting for sightseeing while riding. But our guide did a great job ensuring we enjoyed our trip!!
Our golf cart tour of Rome was absolutely awesome! It was one of the highlights of our trip. Julie was fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience both fun and memorable. The golf cart was the perfect way to see so much of Rome without all the walking, and we got to experience many incredible sights while learning about the history and culture of the city. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome. It was a great experience from start to finish and definitely something we will remember!
The BEST tour we took in Rome! Honestly, I wish I would have booked a whole day instead of 3 hours. Jack was our guide and he was wonderful. He told us all about the sites we visited and certainly knew how to get around the craziness that is Rome. He really made us feel that we were able to take our time and answered all our questions. If you're trying to figure out just one tour to take in Rome, this is the one!
Our tour guide did not speak very good English. He was late picking us up from our hotel. He asked 3 times what we wanted to see and each time I told him I wanted to see what was listed on the itinerary. He was frustrated by that but took us anyway. At a few stops he’d drop us off several blocks away and give us walking directions and tell us to meet back at the golf cart in 15 minutes. He went the wrong way down a one way street and got into a very aggressive argument with another driver. Then towards the end of the tour, we were walking and I had my phone in my hand. He asked if I’d complete a review then he reached over, took hold of my phone to capture the barcode from his phone and quickly selected 5 stars and filled in his name in the comment box. Fortunately I didn’t complete and submit that review. I think his name was Daniel. Unfortunately you can’t choose who you get with Viator. All of our other tour thru Viator have been very good. We just got a lazy and disrespectful guide in this one. If you get a good guide, this is a great way to get acclimated to the city and see some key places.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry that certain aspects of your experience did not meet your expectations. Our Golf Cart Tours are designed to allow guests to enjoy Rome's historic center safely while complying with local traffic regulations, pedestrian zones, and access restrictions. For this reason, some landmarks may require a short walk from the nearest authorized stopping point. Regarding your comments about the guide, we take professionalism very seriously. However, we are unable to verify the personal interactions described in your review, including the circumstances surrounding the review request. We appreciate your feedback and are pleased to note that you consider this type of tour to be a great way to discover the city. Kind regards,
We travel frequently and have booked dozens of excursions through Viator. This was our first negative experience. * Missed our Tour Due to Poor Communication * Provider Was Impossible to Reach (stated they don’t use WhatsApp ) * We Never Found Our Guide * Worst Viator Experience We’ve Had Google Maps repeatedly directed you to different locations. * The provider could not be reached by WhatsApp. * We messaged through Viator immediately. * They asked for your exact location instead of calling or meeting you. * The tour departed without making a reasonable effort to find us * The provider then refused a refund, and was extremely rude. Unprofessional. We hope that Viator no longer works with this vendor.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry that you were unable to join the tour. Our team makes every effort to assist guests in reaching the meeting point and to maintain communication prior to departure. However, shared tours must depart on schedule out of respect for all participants, and drivers cannot indefinitely delay the experience. As your review indicates, the tour did not take place for you. Consequently, your comments do not relate to the quality of the guide, the itinerary, or the experience itself, but rather to communication before the activity. Kind regards, Luxurbe Team
Great tour. Thanks Dino. he took us around the entire perimeter of the city, including all of the major sites and we enjoyed them.
We had a great time with Ernesto touring around Rome! We had a limited time to enjoy the city, so this tour was perfect for 2 couples, especially in the extreme heat! Every site had great opportunities for pictures and learning about Rome’s history, and also places to get refreshments to beat the heat. The golf carts were very comfortable and we felt very safe even in the Rome traffic. Thanks Ernesto!
Andy was great It eas a good tour
Augusto was professional and great . And a very nice tour in 1 hour and half
This was a a great way to see these amazing sights. Luca, our guide, was super knowledgeable and on top of all the facts he shared with us, he also spoke with us about other topics. We highly recommend checking out the sights with this team.
