What a golf cart tour includes

You get the ride, a driver who is also your guide, and stops for photos. Two tours add gelato.

Entry tickets are not included. You see the Colosseum, the Pantheon and the other sights from the outside.

Tips, food and drinks are extra on most tours. Hotel pickup is only on the three tours that offer it.

Short or long: 1.5 vs 3 hours

Pick the 1.5-hour express ride if you only want a quick look. Pick a 3-hour tour for more stops and more time at each one.

Most tours run 2 to 3 hours. That is enough for the main squares, but not to go inside anything.

Rather walk? Compare the best walking tours Rome has on our tours page.

Rome golf cart tour at night

The night tour shows the landmarks lit up after sunset. It lasts 3 hours, from €75, and hotel pickup is an option.

Expect quieter streets and views of the city at night.

Private golf cart tours in Rome

One of our picks sells a private option for up to 7 people. It starts at Villa Borghese.

On the shared tours, a group of two or more may be split across carts. Book private if you want to stay together.

Golf cart or tuk tuk?

None of our picks is a tuk tuk tour. The live list at the bottom of this page shows any current ones.

Tips before you book a golf cart tour

  1. Be on time

    Three tours allow only 10 minutes after the start time. If you are later, you count as a no-show and get no refund.

  2. Check the age and height limits

    Some tours are not for children under 3 or under 5, or under 110 cm (3 ft 6 in). Five list wheelchair users as not suitable, and one lists people with limited mobility.

  3. Leave big bags at the hotel

    Two listings do not allow luggage, large bags or baby strollers on board.

  4. Free cancellation

    All six picks have free cancellation. Read the cut-off time on the listing before you pay.
