Full Description
Experience the ancient streets of the Eternal City on a 21st-century vehicle! Effortlessly glide through the quaint cobblestone streets of Rome along with your private expert tour guide on this three hour Private Segway Tour. Our public tours are a great way to orient yourself to the city all while having tons of fun, and going private gives you the added exclusivity of keeping your tour guide’s undivided attention on the interests of your group.
After a short orientation session at our office where your guide will ensure you are comfortable with the Segway, we’ll hit the streets of Rome starting off with stunning views of the Vittoriano, where you’ll see how it got its popular nickname “The Wedding Cake”. Your guide will tell you fascinating and entertaining (not dull or monotonous) stories and facts about Rome as you enjoy the sights and sounds from your personal transporter.
Next, we’ll arrive to one of Italy’s most famous attractions: The Colosseum. Here we’ll hop off the Segways so you can take in the view of this massive amphitheatre dating back to around 70 AD. In its prime, the Colosseum could hold up to 80,000 cheering spectators witnessing gladiators and performances. You’ll get a peek of what it was truly like as a functioning arena thanks to virtual reality devices your guide will share with you.
Once we’ve had plenty of time to take photos at the Colosseum, we’ll continue on to other highlights of Rome including Capitoline Hill, Trajan’s Forum, the Imperial Forum, while easily gliding our way up Aventine Hill (while pedestrians huff and puff on foot!) to enjoy some of the best panoramic views over Rome. You’ll get a chance to take a look through the Knights of Malta Square keyhole for a very special surprise that is sure to be a highlight of your time in Rome.
In just a few hours, you’ll see more of Rome than you ever could on foot, all with the guidance of a local expert guide just for your small group!
