Rome · ROME NIGHT TOURS
The fountains are lit, the piazzas fill after nine and the ruins are floodlit from below. The 15 below compare the walking routes, the evening cart and Vespa rides and the ghost stories, with prices and start times.
Ride Rome’s red open-top double-decker bus for one 45-minute loop past Santa Maria Maggiore, St. John Lateran, the Colosseum, Spanish Steps, and Piazza Navona. Recorded commentary comes in eight languages, with headphones, WiFi, and a sightseeing app included. Bring a warm layer for the upper deck.
“It was nice to visit the city so quickly and no need to walk”

“Guide seemed very passionate about the history. She was overall very kind and provided good context”

Guides such as Laura, Adriano, Richard, and Bernard lead small groups in English, French, Italian, or Spanish, with snacks and drinks at sunset.
“A great tour even in the heat. I highly recommend doing bike tours as both kids and adults find it more fun than a walking tour. Electric bikes are so easy to use. Restaurant behind building is a great spot for authentic Italian lunch!”
Walk Rome’s grand center with a licensed English-speaking guide, in a group capped at 14. Monica, Eleonora, and other guides bring the monuments to life with history, legends, food tips, and lesser-known stops. The Pantheon is viewed from outside, and the tour ends at the Spanish Steps.
“Monica was wonderful! Fun and informative for the whole family.”
Join a professional English-speaking guide at 6:00 pm for a roughly three-hour walk through Rome after the heat fades. Expect illuminated fountains, ancient ruins, lively stories, and photo stops at the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Capitoline Hill, Piazza Venezia, Piazza Navona, and possibly the Colosseum exterior. Groups are capped at 15.
“Seeing the sights at night was beautiful except as the brochure stated, we were very disappointed not to see the Colosseum at night as that was one of our main objectives! Could not hear or understand our guide so did not know what we were looking at. Wish we would have had earbuds with amplifiers like many tours have.”
Meet your English-speaking guide at Giordano Bruno’s statue in Campo de’ Fiori for a two-hour walk through Rome’s darker past. You’ll hear stories of executions, murders, popes, artists, bones, and ghosts while visiting Piazza Farnese, Ponte Sisto, eerie churches, and Castel Sant’Angelo. Guides may include Maham, Dinara, Sarah, or Diletta.
“Maham has charisma, enthusiasm, knowledge and great story-telling skills. We all enjoyed the evening thoroughly!”
Spend three hours seeing Rome after sunset by electric golf cart. An English-speaking guide such as Paolo, Vito, Matt, or Alessandro takes you from Piazza di Spagna and Trevi Fountain to the Aventine Keyhole, Piazza Navona, and the Colosseum, with photo stops and optional hotel pickup.
“Robin was very knowledgable and helpful Lovely way to see the sites”
Ride a high-quality e-bike from near the Colosseum through Rome’s famous squares and monuments as daylight fades. Guides such as Iman, Stefano, Flavio, and Mattia lead safe, history-filled routes in English or Italian, with French or German on request. Add the pizza option for a casual meal afterward.
“It was great to get around to so many landmarks in such a short time - and all of the information Irene really helped fill in the gaps of the why and how, not just the what. She knew exactly where to take us to get the best shots and also got us the best nighttime shot of Rome.”
Pick a ruin, a ceiling or a table.
