Itinerary

Your tour begins in Via dei Delfini

Meet your local guide near Piazza Venezia, for a hands-on orientation. You'll practice balancing on your electric Segway until you feel steady, then roll out into Rome's historic center.

Glide past the Colosseum and Arch of Constantine

Next, cruise toward the Colosseum, the mighty arena where gladiators once fought before roaring crowds. Roll by the Arch of Constantine, a towering triumphal monument, and admire these ancient giants from your saddle.

Take in the Roman Forum from Capitoline Hill

Then from Capitoline Hill, survey the sprawling Roman Forum, once the beating heart of the ancient empire. Then your guide explains how senators, temples, and markets shaped daily life among these weathered marble ruins.

Ride along the Via dei Fori Imperiali

Cruise the grand Via dei Fori Imperiali, the wide boulevard linking the Imperial Fora. You'll pass Trajan's Forum and its famous column, carved with battle scenes, while learning how emperors once expanded their capital.

Coast through the Circus Maximus

Glide into the vast Circus Maximus, the ancient chariot-racing track that once held 150,000 roaring spectators. Picture the thundering hooves and cheering crowds as you roll across this grassy arena below Palatine Hill.

Climb to Aventine Hill for a panoramic view

Ascend to the peaceful Aventine Hill, home to the Orange Garden and its sweeping view over Rome's rooftops. Peek through the Knights of Malta keyhole, where St. Peter's dome lines up perfectly at the end of a hedge.

Pause at the Mouth of Truth

Roll up to the Mouth of Truth, the ancient marble face outside Santa Maria in Cosmedin church. Legend says it bites the hand of any liar, so snap a photo with your fingers inside if you dare, then admire Teatro di Marcello.

Travel back in time with a virtual reality experience

To cap it off, slip on a virtual reality headset to watch ancient Rome rise around you. You'll see crumbling ruins transform into gleaming temples and bustling forums, bringing 2,000 years of history to life in minutes.

Your tour ends in Via dei Delfini

Your ride wraps up back where you started near Piazza Venezia. Hop off your Segway with a fresh feel for the Eternal City's ancient layout, and ask your guide for tips on the best spots for lunch.
