About this tour
Roll through Rome's backstreets and grand piazzas in a restored Fiat 500 convertible, complete with driver and guide. This two-hour tour stitches together Janiculum Hill's sweeping vistas, St. Peter's Basilica, and the Colosseum into a single run. You'll sip drinks whilst your guide unpacks the history behind each stop, all from a car that feels like it stepped out of a 1960s film. Light on walking, heavy on atmosphere.
Highlights
- Cruise Rome's winding streets in a classic convertible
- Janiculum Hill panoramas over the entire city
- St. Peter's Basilica and Colosseum drive-past views
- Local guide commentary on Rome's layered history

What to expect
You'll settle into the passenger seat of an authentic vintage Fiat 500—no steering wheel in your hands. The driver navigates Rome's tight medieval lanes whilst your guide points out landmarks and shares backstories. Expect stops for photos at scenic overlooks and major monuments, with time to hop out and take in views. The open-air design means you're genuinely part of the street scene, though weather matters: light rain brings ponchos; heavier downpour swaps you into a roofed Fiat 500 or 600 instead.
Good to know
Weight limit 110kg per person. No seatbelts or airbags in the vintage models. Infants must sit on an adult's lap. Prams fold down if needed. Service animals welcome. The car itself is the experience—expect narrow streets and a bumpy ride as trade-offs for charm.
