Guided by your dedicated Englishspeaking Private Guide, you’ll travel smoothly through Rome’s historic streets, enjoying its most celebrated squares, fountains, viewpoints, and ancient sites!

From world-famous icons like Castel Sant’Angelo, the Pantheon, the Colosseum, and the ancient grounds of the Circus Maximus, to beloved highlights such as Piazza Navona, the iconic Trevi Fountain, and the breathtaking viewpoint of the Magic Keyhole, this route brings together all the must-see locations that visitors dream of experiencing during their stay in Rome.

*Important for your safety:
  1. Only confident, experienced scooter drivers can take part in this tour. “Experienced” means having ridden a scooter or motorcycle multiple times recently (at least 10 times). E-bikes and kick scooters do not count. Your safety — and your enjoyment — come first.
  2. Children can join the tour, but only if they are able to safely reach the foot pegs while sitting as passengers on the Vespa. As a reference, this typically requires an inside leg measurement of approximately 55 cm. Children who cannot comfortably reach the foot pegs will not be able to participate for safety reasons.

tour highlights
Here’s a preview of what you will see
the colosseum

Gaze up at the Colosseum and imagine the roar of the crowd echoing through time. Gladiators once fought here, but rarely to the death — they were too valuable, admired like today’s most celebrated athletes.

the pantheon

Did you know that on Pentecost Sunday, thousands of rose petals fall through its oculus, filling the air with color and ancient Roman magic?

trevi fountain

Admire the dazzling Trevi Fountain, born at the meeting of three aqueducts — the “trivium.” Its waters once brought life to Rome. Toss a coin, make a wish, and carry a little Roman magic with you.

the roman forum

Look across the Roman Forum and imagine its bustling past — senators debating, merchants shouting, citizens gossiping. Once forgotten beneath the ground for centuries, it was rediscovered in the 19th century, revealing ancient Rome’s beating heart.
