    Valentina was a magnificent tour guide. Her knowledge of Roman history was impressive and delivered in a highly engaging way! One of the best tours our family has been on - we highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!! This is a must! If you have one day on Rome this is the best way to acquaint yourself with the rich culture and history of Rome. Thank you Valentina - Mirelle Paul Tom and Harry from Australia

    If you are considering a Segway tour I highly recommend Fat Tire. To start my wife and I were a little nervous, Arvin was a great instructor and tour guide. He was able to put our worries at easy. The amount of knowledge Arvin has about the city and it’s history is amazing. We got to see a lot of things in a short time! It really helped us plan our next day on what we might go back to explore some more. Thanks Fat Tire and thank you Arvin!

    Marco was an excellent tour guide. He was attentive ans made certain that we remained safe. He spent a lot of time discussing Rome's history. We learned a great deal from him. I definitely recommend the tour.

    We had the most fabulous Segway tour with Arvin whilst we were in Rome for a few days. The four of us had a fun filled tour of the city with Arvin and his knowledge of this wonderful place. Totally recommend. Oh we mustn’t forget his singing!!!

    Thanks Lorena! What a fun way to see the sights of Rome. You were incredibly knowledgeable and patient with all of us learning the Segway for the first time!! It's not scary at all, for all of you who are daunted. You will pick it up in no time. Would definitely recommend!

    Our group made a GREAT discovery by engaging Rome Segway Tours/Fat Tire Tours. Our guide, Christian, provided us a fantastic tour of the city. I highly recommend that you take the tour soon after you arrive so that you can see and appreciate areas that you would like to visit in depth. Christian was a caring and articulate guide who led us to places that we would never see otherwise. This is a Rome MUST DO.

  • 5/5 Jordan M. 5 months ago on Google
    Amazing! Couldn’t ask for a better guide in Lorena. She gave us the best tour of all the sights in Rome. Great if you want to see evrything in a short time. Segways are also brilliant fun.

  • 5/5 Sarah M. 8 months ago on Google
    Would definitely recommend!! A great way to see so much of the city! Our guide Mat was so lovely and funny. He gave us lots of information and was able to answer all our questions. I was nervous when starting but Mat made us all feel very comfortable and confident!

  • 5/5 Mary G. 7 months ago on Google
    What an amazing tour! The perfect way to see all the sites of Ancient Rome! Arvin, our terrific tour guide and fearless leader, made the tour so much fun and kept us all laughing as he shared incredible history with us. Thank you for taking our picture everywhere we stopped, and for giving us such a memorable day!!! p.s. You have a great voice, Arvin!

  • 5/5 Ashley R. 6 months ago on Google
    We have taken several Fat Tire tours, and our food tour in Rome was the best one yet! Arvin was an energetic guide who knew much about the city as well as the best stops for food. We enjoyed the usage of radios as well as e-bikes for this tour. We would recommend Fat Tire to anyone!

  • 5/5 Tara G. 10 months ago on Google
    Lorena was a fabulous tour guide. She was knowledgeable about the history and culture of Rome. Along with answering questions along the tour she provided us with deeper details and took us to amazing locations for beautiful pictures. Lorena spoke English and added humor to our tour. Book with Lorena for a great tour.

  • 5/5 Alyssa H. 10 months ago on Google
    Possibly the best thing you can do in Rome! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and charismatic. I enjoyed every moment and did not want it to end. I plan to take these tours wherever they are offered because of my experience here.

  • 5/5 Gill R. 9 months ago on Google
    An absolutely fabulous 3 hour tour with Matt guiding us through the wonderful city streets. His knowledge and enthusiasm was contagious! A fun and terrific way to ‘get your bearings’ of the city and learn about the incredible history. Matt was superb!

  • 5/5 Rob M. 10 months ago on Google
    Had a fantastic tour with Arvin, great guy, very knowledgable, great sense of humour. He made sure both my wife and myself were confident on the Segway before we went out and made sure we were both safe throughout the tour. I couldn’t recommend this enough.

  • 5/5 Fletcher 11 months ago on Google
    Our private Rome Segway tour with Matt and Marcello was the highlight of our Italy trip! They were really fun, knowledgeable, and great tour guides! Would recommend 10/10

  • 5/5 jagruti k. 8 months ago on Google
    Matt was a brilliant, fun, patient and knowledgable tour leader. Our first Segway experience and he made sure we were comfortable before the tour. He had a broad breadth of knowledge that he shared in just the right amount of detail. Grazie Matt…. No hesitation recommending this excursion while let in Rome.

  • 5/5 Laura D. 1 year ago on Google
    We had 3 segways and an electric bike. Everyone had a lot of fun. Very interesting information and our guide Marcello was entertaining and we felt safe despite the traffic. He even had virtual reality goggles to show us what many of the sites used to look like. Highly recommend

  • 5/5 Mari S. 1 year ago on Google
    We had the best time!!! Our guide was amazing!!! We had headsets so we never missed a word. Thanks to Fat Tire Tours, we did not have to go into the Colosseum madhouse! We learned so much without having to go in. Fat Tire Tours has always been good. We loved it!

  • 5/5 Σπύρος �. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been also to same business in Berlin and they have we were very satisfied with our tour!! the bikes are good and easy to ride they offer ear equipment to hear the guide during bicycling. We enjoy our tour guide (Lucila if we remember correct) that was speaking very nice English, was funny and help us a lot to understand a big part of the history of Rome. We totally recommend the tour especially if is your first time in rome!!! big thanks guys for your nice tour!!

  • 5/5 Katherine H. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect activity for your first day in Rome to get your bearings and see the landmarks. Valentina was amazing - knowledgeable, engaging, and friendly. We asked her after the tour for recommendations of neighbourhoods to visit and each one ended up being the highlights of our stay in Rome.

  • 5/5 Martin J. 1 year ago on Google
    My family and I really enjoyed the tour through the historic city Centre of Rome. Marcello was a very knowledgeable guide, telling a lot about historic and contemporary Rome. The bike tour was exactly the right length for us, with plenty of stops for foto’s and some peeks inside churches and around squares.

  • 5/5 Renée Van L. 1 year ago on Google
    The staff is very friendly and our tour guide was amazing! She shares her knowledge of the city in an interesting way. Also, in the end it wasn’t that scary to ride a bike in Rome. Definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 Jamie G. 2 years ago on Google
    What an amazing way to see some of the beautiful sights Rome has to offer. Myself and Kim loved everything about this tour. We had been in Rome for a few days before the tour and saw a lot of the sights already but wanted to find out the history behind all these wonderful things and we were not disappointed. The guide gave an amazing, informative tour and every question we asked was answered. I'd recommend fat tire tours to anyone looking for a fun and cool way of seeing the city and wanting to know the history of the beautiful place.

  • 5/5 Michelle C. 1 year ago on Google
    Our family of 4 completed this tour with Rogelio. He was outstanding! Our 15 and 13 year old teens really enjoyed the 3 hour Rome bike tour. He made navigating the roads and people as easy as possible. I thought maybe our 13 year old would struggle a little with the cobblestones or traffic, but she was totally fine. Totally worth it!

  • 5/5 Ran A. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a great time 💥 For us it was a great way to get to know the city and its monuments on our second day here. Lori is a great bike-tour-guide, super knowledgeable and fun 🤩

  • 5/5 Mike C. 1 year ago on Google
    Took this day tour yesterday with Valencia as our guide. She was great and knew everything. She’s got a masters in art so we got a lot of information. Tour hits all the inner city highlights and well worth it as you bike between sites and don’t waste time walkIng. Bikes are step through and helmets are provided if you want one. Bring a water bottle as it was hot. Good tour and worth it.

  • 5/5 Robert R. 1 year ago on Google
    If you are new to Rome, please head over to Fat Tire Bike Tours before attempting your own walking tour. I can’t begin to tell you how good this outfit is and can’t say enough good things about our tour guide Valentina. She majored in architecture while in college and breaks down Roman / Italian history into 3 seasons. Each season is 400 years and covers 1,200 years of city history. She utilized headsets, speaks slowly and loudly enough to understand. I finally, understand the history of the fall of Rome and subsequent renaissance period in simple economic and cultural terms. Valentina took us to all the top rated places including the Jewish Ghetto, the market place, the Pantheon, Wedding Cake monument, Trevi Fountain etc. (you can cover a lot by bike). She also pointed out great restaurants and places to have a cocktails with a great rooftop view. She did not go across the river to the Vatican (which would be too much). At the end of the tour, you will have enough information to visit those locations independently and in more detail. Trust me on this folks, and go on the bike tour to get a great overview and meaningful history of Rome. You won’t be disappointed.

    Excellent tour with Fat Tire Tour company especially with our guide Lorena. She is really knowledgeable and provided many insights into all the stops. Company is well organized and and ran smoothly. Only con was the routes taken that can sometime be full of cars and pedestrians. Overall it was an amazing tour experience.

  • 5/5 David F. 10 months ago on Google
    Fantastic tour! This was the first time in Rome for our four teenagers, and the three-hour tour was the perfect way to get acquainted with the city. Our tour guide, Marco, was knowledgeable, witty, and patient, and the tour had just the right pacing and blend of information. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Be K. 7 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Bellissimo tour! We had a segway tour around Rome with Lorena and it was excellent - fun and informative! Rome is beautiful city with so much history and this tour is a great way to see the sites. Lorena is a wonderful tour guide and she made the whole experience so enjoyable. You have a earphone so you can hear the tour guide at all times. Also the virtual reality goggles at various sites are epic, you get to see how it looked hundreds of years ago. Our tour started at 09:30 and lasted 3 hours, finishing in time for wine o'clock! We would highly recommend this tour, you won't be disappointed. Grazie mille Lorena! 😊 From Cerys and Sadie x

    Today we had this lovely bicycle tour with Valentina. She is a very accomplished guide, friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining. We really enjoyed the trip through Rom and would recommend it to others. Thank you Valentina.

    Me and my husband had the pleasure of going on a Segway tour through Rome with Marco as our guide, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. Marco's knowledge and passion for history were truly remarkable. He went into great detail about the historical sites we visited, making me understand and appreciate the rich history of Italy in a way I never knew before. But what really set Marco apart was his innovative use of technology. He provided us with VR headsets that allowed us to see the buildings in their original glory before they were demolished or altered over time. It was like stepping back in time and getting a glimpse of Rome's magnificent past. This added a whole new dimension to the tour and made it even more immersive and engaging. Marco's enthusiasm and storytelling skills made the tour not only educational but also entertaining. He had a knack for bringing history to life and making it relatable. I was captivated by his anecdotes and insights throughout the tour. I highly recommend Marco as a tourist guide in Rome. Whether you're a history buff or simply curious about the city's rich heritage, Marco will ensure that you have a memorable and enlightening experience.Thank you, Marco, for making our visit to Rome truly unforgettable!

    Buongiorno! The luxury of exploring the world is something that is profoundly eye opening. When one stumbles upon oppourtunities to discover insight and history upon their travels, it should be siezed as if it were gold. If you are in Rome, you'd be foolish not to immediately head on a bike tour around the city with this group. I was fortunate enough to book a tour with Marco, who guided me safely around a city he was quite clearly in love with. With a smile and welcoming embrace, he begun the tour by establishing a unique and modern perspective before embarking on an extremely engaging journey through the stories within some of Rome's spectacular landmarks. With Marco's depth of knowledge, it is as if he lifted a veil from Rome, somehow making a beautiful city even more divine. In his mission to host the most intimate tour possible, Marco succeeds. Ive learned that in Rome I stand amongst thousands of years of history - a place rich with culture and stories. The team at fat tire tours deserve to be the first people anyone goes to see in Rome. Im now ready to re-visit each stop and spend more time appreciating every corner. Arrividerci è grazie mille, Giacomo Carbone

    A great experience. Introduction to Segway and safety was good. As a first timer this help my confidence and enjoyment of the trip itself. The journey around the sites was fun and Arvine’s insights were very informative. Many thanks for a great introduction to Ancient Rome.

😠 Awful expirience at the bus stop. We’ve been waiting an hour for it to arrive. Haven’t seen the full bus yet, but even if it was a private luxury bus, it wouldnt be worth this long of a wait. And if the other reviews are anything to go off of, it sure isn’t.
