The best tour ever!! - Fantastic experience - We loved every minute!!
Lorena was a fabulous tour guide, explained everything in great detail including VR experience and showed us fantastic spots, especially for memorable photos!
She was patient with each of us and a group in general when instructing about the Segways and made sure we were all comfortable before embarking on the trip.
The Segways themselves were extremely comfortable, sturdy and safe to use - Because of this tour we will now always choose a Segway tour, with no hesitation as it was so much fun!
Don't hesitate, book it now - You will not regret it!!

Viewing Rome with Segways and VR - We chose to do the Private Segway tour through Rome with Marco as our guide. We could not have made a better choice in picking this company. Marco is so kind and genuinely cares about not only making sure you are enjoying yourself but about showing you Rome in a way that you can relate to and understand. He has an absolutely AMAZING VR headset that transports you back in time to show you the streets of the Roman Forum and the Colosseum. It is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. We chose this tour on a whim and we are so so so so glad that we did. We loved it so much that we will be bringing the rest of the family back to take them!

Unforgettable Segway Tour with Matt in Rome - Matt's Segway tour through Rome's oldest quarter was an absolute delight. From the Colosseum to the Pantheon, Matt expertly guided us through the city's iconic sites with informative yet light-hearted commentary. His attention to detail and care for his guests made for a memorable experience. I highly recommend joining Matt for an enriching adventure through Rome's ancient wonders.

Excellent Segway tour of Rome - We had a 9:30 am Segway tour with Marica and were overjoyed to find only two of us on the tour. The weather was perfect and while Rome is getting quite busy this second week in May, Marica confidently guided us thru crowded piazzas and across busy roads with no issues. We also traversed quiet laneways past beautiful rose gardens and a sojourn in an orange grove overlooking Rome.
We started the tour with a little practice to ensure we were comfortable and competent. The route took in the Coliseum, Circus Maximus, Roman Forum, Capitoline, Palatine & Aventine hills, with stops for taking photos and seeing sites along the way. We wore an earphone so we could hear Marica telling us about the history of Rome and details of sites along the way. An unexpected bonus was virtual reality views of some of the sites - Coloseum, Circus Maximus and Roman Forum through a viewer. This enabled us to see in 3D recreated vision of what the sites would have looked like in ancient times. It was very enlightening. Marica was an excellent guide. We recommend the company Fat Tire Tours, the Segway tour content and Marica herself for an exceptional experience in Rome. It was fantastic.
