Tour Description
Hooves pound the surface, thudding on the arid and trampled ground. Behind them soars a two-wheeled chariot, careering along the track to the roar of the onlooking crowd.
Can you picture it? Well, some 2,000 years ago in ancient Rome this scene would have been a reality played out in the Circus Maximus. And whilst we no longer rely on sturdy stallions to pull us along, Rome’s obsession with wheels of transport hasn’t dwindled. From the beloved vespas to the comical popemobile, we Romans have forever been searching for superior ways to traverse the Eternal City than using our legs.
So, forget the fatigue of walking all day and hop aboard your horseless steed for our Golf Cart tour of Rome! Let us whisk you around the city in comfort, showing you all the sites of Rome in half the time. Cool off in the breeze as we drive you through quiet streets, hidden corners, and straight to the doorstep of your chosen area. With your customized tour, Rome is your oyster.
Below are three of our favorite itineraries for your golf cart tour of Rome:
- The first takes you through the highlights of ancient Rome, visiting such sites as the Colosseum and Roman Forum.
- The second is our Secret Rome itinerary, which covers some of Rome’s most stunning off-the-beaten-track sites.
- The third is our La Dolce Vita squares and fountains stroll: a memorable adventure through central Rome’s most famous sites.
Explore Ancient Rome in your very own horseless chariot
Any Roman itinerary must include the Colosseum. But when the summer sun’s beating down on you or the heavens open and you have no cover, being herded around its vicinity can seem like more punishment than pleasure. With your very own private golf cart, however, there’s no need to worry. Sail past the crowds as they roam the streets and stand in line to enter one of Rome’s most visited monuments.
Skip the lines with our VIP access to the amphitheater and Colosseum Underground or Belvedere. Be driven straight over to the Roman Forum where we’ll walk in the footsteps of the Caesars along the Via Sacra. Explore the Forum’s highlights in the company of an expert, fluent English-speaking guide.
Discover Secret Rome by coming off the beaten path
Embark on one of our favorite itineraries by visiting the attractions most tourists overlook. Marvel at the scale of the Baths of Caracalla, still in a miraculous state of preservation after 1,800 years. Visit the 5th century Church of Quattro Coronati, whose monastery and two courtyards contain a sacred host of hidden treasures.
Ascend the Aventine Hill, passing by the ancient church of Santa Sabina, and cross the River Tiber to climb the Janiculum Hill. Pass through the historic districts of Testaccio and Trastevere as you orientate yourself around the ancient city and take advantage of the stunning views overlooking the capital.
Power through Rome’s piazzas on our Dolce Vita Tour
Live La Dolce Vita by cruising through the historic center, stopping off wherever you want to linger among Rome’s most famous and impressive monuments. This itinerary takes you to the unskippable Spanish Steps, still a meeting place for Romans of all ages when they want to mingle. You’ll visit the Trevi Fountain, a Baroque masterpiece, whose silver screen legacy lives on forever thanks to Fellini’s La Dolce Vita.
We’ll pass beneath the Pantheon: an ancient temple built in honor of all the gods and learn all about its history and the famous names who are interred within. And of course we’ll explore Piazza Navona, once the athletic circus of the emperor Domitian and now a bustling central square. Not just home to an ancient Egyptian obelisk, Piazza Navona contains two magnificent works by Bernini. The captivating Fountain of the Four Rivers is an essential stop on any tour of Rome.
Customize your Golf Cart Tour of Rome
This specific tour requires you to make a choice. As a base, your tour includes both an English-speaking driver and an expert guide to provide extra depth to the tour and any landmarks you wish to see. However, if you wish to strip back the tour and test your own Roman knowledge you can instead choose to just have an English-speaking driver only.
And remember that your golf cart tour of Rome can be fully customized. Just let us know which package you prefer and where you want to go and we’ll whizz you there no problem.
