Ready, Set, Roll: What to Expect

Classic Rome Sights—Segway Style
Jumping on a Segway is the modern way to do Rome’s grand tour. Without tiring your legs, you’ll zip between the city’s legendary sites:
- Colosseum: Begin or roll by one of the world’s most iconic ancient structures, where the gladiators once fought and Roman crowds roared.
- Roman Forum & Palatine Hill: Glide through the sprawling ruins where emperors ruled, and city life buzzed thousands of years ago.
- Circus Maximus: See the site of ancient chariot races—a sweeping field that offers striking city views.
- Piazza Venezia & the Vittoriano (Wedding Cake): Marvel at this dramatic white marble monument, a favorite backdrop for photos and history buffs alike.
- Pantheon, Piazza Navona, and Campo de’ Fiori: Experience Rome’s living piazzas, with their baroque fountains, artists, and bustling market vibes.
Hidden Corners & Secret Sights
While the headline attractions are thrilling, Segway tours excel at weaving in Rome’s lesser-known charms:
- Knights of Malta Square (Piazza dei Cavalieri di Malta): A mysterious Aventine Hill spot famed for its keyhole view of St. Peter’s Dome—few tourists make it here, but Segway groups do.
- Aventine Hill & Orange Garden: Panoramic city views amid fragrant blooms—a peaceful retreat above the city’s clamor.
- Santa Maria in Cosmedin & the Mouth of Truth: Test your bravery (and your hand!) at this legendary marble mask near the Tiber.
- Charming Backstreets: Guides take detours to less-visited alleys, hidden churches, and bustling local neighborhoods that most visitors miss.
