Imperial Tour

Love Ancient Rome ?

Departure from our office in Via Ostilia 29, next to the Colosseo. Ride up and down the seven hills, where the Rome of the Ceasars  was born and then developed. Enjoy the views from the point where, according to the legend, Romulus and Remus decided on the foundation of Rome. From here you will also admire Circus Maximus and  Palatine Hill. Then up on Aventine Hill and in the Orange Tree Gardens. Mouth of truth and the beautiful Capitoline hill designed by Michelangelo. Then we will dive in between the Imperial Roman Forums and glide underneath her majesty the Colosseo.

Join us for the ultimate tour of the Eternal City.

Over three and a half hours, you’ll discover all the wonders of Imperial Rome, including the Roman Forums, Circus Maximus, the Palatine Hill, and the Colosseum. You’ll also be delighted by little-known treasures like the secret passageway on the Celio Hill, the mystery the Maltese Knights hid behind their green doors, and the tranquil serenity of Rome’s orange garden.

Our guides will entertain you with tales of life in ancient Rome. As you glide around the city, they will show you where to find the tastiest pizza or that perfect glass of wine. Our guides know the best places to get away from the crowds of Rome, so make sure to bring your camera; you’ll want to capture all the special moments.

Glide through the ancient heart of Rome and learn why all of our guests walk away with a Segway Smile.



You will have an IPOD touch Audio-Video player that will make your experience even more interesting, informative and fun!

  1. Hello Guys,

    I wanted to write to all of you there at Rome by Segway Tours, to
    personally thank you for such an enjoyable experience and the truly
    personal service you provided to us. My son Chris and I took the Imperial Rome tour with Marco Thursday July 08, 2010 and so thoroughly enjoyed it that we signed up for another (private tour) for Saturday.Your tours where very informative, yet relaxed in nature. The most amazing thing was how much of Rome we were able to see in the 3 hours aboard the Segways. It would have taken days of walking to see what we were able to see. That makes the cost of the Segway Tour truly good value for money, and the cheapest way of seeing the sights in a short time. Our private tour on Saturday (with “Hector”, I know that is not correct
    spelling, my apologies) was also excellent! Being able to see the back
    alleys, small streets and hidden piazzas of Rome was an experience that
    you could not get with any other mode of transportation. Marco, as I told you before I left Rome, I now was hooked. We enjoyed
    the Segway Personal Transport experience so much that I ordered one for our own personal use. We can now enjoy Segway riding EVERY DAY.
    All of you were very kind, helpful and friendly with us, I felt as if I
    had personal friends in Rome by the time we left. Your offer of help to
    locate my Son’s lost Sony PSP was very kind and much appreciated. Thank you all again for the truly wonderful experience. I will always
    recommend your services to anyone going to Italy….it is a MUST DO
    tour!
    Many thanks!!

    We wanted to thank you for our great tour.

    We really enjoyed the Segway Tour and it was a perfect way to
    introduce our children to Rome.
    I would say it was definitely a highlight of our trip!

    It was great to get an overview of the city and the kids had a blast.
    I must say I was a bit nervous at first around the crazy drivers and
    cars, but it was super safe!
    And the lunch recommendation Papagio’s was really great.
    Thanks again.

    Feel free to post our comments.
    Best,
    Traci and Doug Greenberg, Portland, Oregon USA

  3. Definitely do the tour your first day, you get to see a lot of the city and see somethings you probably wouldnt have seen otherwise.

    My wife and I have been on 8 segway tours, so we have experienced great ones and bad ones too. This was a very good one in our minds. We liked the IPOD we got so that you can see what the things you are looking at once looked like when they were in their heydey.

    Since we are experienced and the other couple was too, no turtle mode and we were full throttle most of the trip, which made it nice.

    I forget our tour guides name, but he was very informative and had a good personality. I wouldnt recommend the 90Euro one, the 75 is better and sufficient.

    YOU MUST GET THERE IN TIME or they’ll leave you. There was another couple scheduled on our tour and we left right when it started, not waiting even one minute.

    A+

    We had a wonderful time with our leader who not only safely led us near the ancient ruins of Rome (and we covered a lot of territory) but gave us information as well as local customs (like how to drink from a water fountain like an Italian). He also happily took pictures of us and helped me to take pictures of other sites. We are VERY happy that we took the tour and highly recommend the Rome Segway Tour to anyone visiting.

    I would like to say we traveled for a month and both my husband and I both agreed your Segway tour of Rome was the best. It was fun, informative and our guide made it very interesting. We had been to Rome back in 1993 and he showed us Rome again and some areas we would never normally have seen. We have recommended your tour to our friends and a couple of them are going on one of our tours in August.
    Segway is a fantastic way to travel around and we will definitely look out for these tours in the future.

  6. Thank you for a wonderful tour of Rome by Segway. It was one of our highlights on our trip to Italy. Getting to see some of the back streets and areas that we would not have strolled through was a treat. My husband is now interested in purchasing a Segway.
