# Rome Catacomb & Appian Way Small-Group Tour by Golf Cart

**Guidekin's take:** The golf cart that leaves the centre: out along the Appian Way to the catacombs, entry ticket included, then back past the top attractions, with headsets and water, rated 4.94 across 1066 reviews. Cart, catacombs entry and audio system are included at €99 per person, tips are not. Hotel pickup is not offered because Italian law forbids it.

In our comparison: #19 of 90 in Golf Cart Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Forget the fatigue of walking all day and hop aboard a golf cart for an exciting ride through Rome. Drive around the city in comfort, seeing all the top attractions and visiting the Catacombs of Rome.

Important Note : Each vehicle accommodates up to 7 passengers, and tours operate with a maximum of 2 vehicles, allowing for a total of 14 participants. The vehicles travel in tandem, similar to connected train carriages, and all participants listen to one tour leader through an audio guide system via earpieces. Please note that, on occasion, guests booking together may need to be seated in separate vehicles.

Each golf cart has two rear-facing seats. To ensure fairness and comfort, seating is rotated every hour, so no couple remains in the rear seats for the entire duration of the tour.
