Itinerary

1. Circus Maximus
Starting from your hotel, head towards the Circus Maximus. As you ride along, a breathtaking view of the ancient chariot racing stadium will unfold, embraced by the majestic Palatine Hill, the residence of Roman emperors.
2. Giardino degli Aranci
Stop on the Aventine Hill, historically the residence of Roman consuls. Today, it is the only neighborhood with 19th-century villas. Visit the Orange Garden, where you'll stop to enjoy one of the city's most beautiful views. Pass by the ancient Church of Santa Sabina, built in the 1200s, in your golf cart and proceed to the Pyramid of Cestius, the only pyramid built during the Roman era that has survived more than 2,500 years.
Duration: 30 mins
3. Pyramid of Caius Cestius
The view of the pyramid from the golf cart will be truly astounding. With the 360-degree perspective that the golf cart offers, you'll feel as if you can almost reach out and touch history.
Duration: 25 mins
4. Baths of Caracalla
Stop at the ancient Baths of Caracalla. Built by Emperor Caracalla, what remains today are the massive ruins and the thermal baths within. Enjoy a stunning view of this enormous structure framed by Roman pines.
5. Appian Way (Via Appia Antica)
Finally, reach the start of the Ancient Appian Way. From the very beginning of the road, see the original paving still intact along much of the route, the tombs of Roman consuls buried along the way, and the Imperial Gate of San Sebastiano, which has remained untouched since the 3rd century AD—all this, experienced from your golf cart.
Duration: 20 mins
6. Catacombe di San Callisto
From the San Sebastiano Gate, it's about a 10-minute golf cart ride to the catacombs. Ride along the ancient Aurelian Walls, built by Emperor Aurelian, which still stand as a backdrop to the world's ancient capital. If the Catacombs of San Callisto is not available then we will take you to Catacomb of Sebastiano.
