About this activity

Historic Tour: (3 Hours)

Depart from the pedestrian zone of Castel Sant’Angelo after a short training session, and head to St.Peters Basilica, Rome’s iconic symbol of Christianity. Glide around the oldest quarters of Rome to Piazza Navona, built over the site of the Stadium of Domitian. Admire the columns of the imperial Pantheon, a former Greek temple built by Hadrian in 126 AD. Ride along the Roman Forum to the Colosseum, perhaps Rome’s most iconic building. Take a tour of Piazza Venezia, dominated by the wedding-cake Monument to Vittorio Emanuele II. Join part of the “Lovely Tour” route, Segway-ing past the Trevi Fountain and onto the romantic Spanish Steps. Then, glide across the vast Piazza del Popolo to see some of its legendary Renaissance fountains.

Lovely Tour: (2 Hours)

Combine classic sites of the old town with the romance of the Villa Borghese, departing from the pedestrian zone of Castel Sant’Angelo. After a short training session, head to the Spanish Steps. Pass through the city center, tossing a coin in the Trevi Fountain as you go. Next, dodge the shoppers on Via del Corso, Rome’s biggest shopping street, to arrive at Piazza del Popolo, where you will climb to the Terrace of Pincio for breathtaking views inside the gardens of the Villa Borghese.

Classic Tour: (2 Hours)

The Classic Tour is a shorter version of the “Historic Tour” and visits many of the same sites, but in only 2 hours. The route starts at the pedestrian zone of Castel Sant’Angelo, where you will be taught how to ride your Segway. Go to Piazza Navona to see stunning Renaissance architecture and the flamboyant fountains of Bernini. Admire the Imperial Pantheon, after a ride along the Roman Forum. And imagine the roar of the crowds at the mighty Colosseum. Pass through Piazza Venezia to reach the Spanish Steps, via the Trevi Fountain. Throw in a coin to ensure you one day return to Rome. And pop by Piazza del Popolo to see Romans and tourists gathered around the fountains and obelisk.

Night Tour: (3 Hours)

I often think night time is more lively and colourful than daytime.

The appointment is at our meeting point in the pedestrian area of Castel Sant'Angelo. We will teach you how to drive a Segway through the beautiful Hadrian Mole Gardens. After that we'll be ready to head to Piazza Navona and then Campo de' Fiori, crowded and bustling market in the day time and romans' gathering point at night time. We will admire the beauty of Ponte Sisto on the Tiber, then crossing Piazza Venezia we'll climb the Campidoglio to enjoy the breathtaking view of the monument which best represents Rome: the Coliseum. Then riding along the Fori Imperiali we'll get to the world's most famous fountain, Trevi fountain. From there we'll reach the Spanish Steps to then loop back to our starting point, Castel Sant'Angelo.

A really fun experience with our guide Santi: we have been to Rome many times and using a Segway and having Santi meant we learned a few new things and saved our tired feet!

The best fun we had in Rome and I couldn’t recommend it enough. From start to finish our guide was professional but fun, leading us, but at our own pace. It was our first experience of this type of Segway and definitely won’t be our last... if you get the opportunity to visit the park instead of the colosseum I would heartily suggest you do that because the views across Rome are spectacular. Save the colosseum for a bit of walking. Thank you so much Santi , we genuinely loved it! Sharon and Glyn x

This was a blast! We had our family of ten in the group and Ali was our guide. He was so accommodating to our wishes and showed us some off the beat path. Like the dome church without a dome. We even stopped for some gelato. It was a great time and fun on the Segways. They were easy to learn and everyone had a great time. Would definitely recommend this for anyone looking to see Rome from a different perspective.

We LOVED this activity in Rome. Our guide was Renaldo and his knowledge of this city was impressive. It was nice how he would safely guide us to each location, explain what we were seeing, and then give us 5-10 minutes to take photos and view these fantastic landmarks a little more closely. We covered so much in the 3 hours that we were with Renaldo. HIGHLY recommend !

I took my niece and nephew to Rome this summer. One of the high points of our all-too-brief stay there was a Segway tour of some of the top tourist attractions. Neither my niece nor my nephew had any Segway experience, but quickly caught on in a quiet park with no distractions. We zoomed out onto the Ponte St Angelo (a bit hair-raising) through to the Pza Navona, Spanish Steps, Pza del Populo, to name just a few, stopping for brief visits and a bit of history from our guide. It was safe, fun, and a welcome departure from standard walking tours. Susan U
