Rome changes after dark. The crowds thin, the heat fades and the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain and the dome of St Peter's are floodlit. The tours on this page include evening golf-cart rides, which cover a lot of ground with very little walking, and guided night walks through the centre and Trastevere.

Before you book

Golf-cart tours are usually small groups or private, with hotel pick-up on some. Check the route: the best include the Gianicolo or the Pincio for a view over the lit-up city. In winter, tours start earlier because sunset is around 4.45pm. Remember that the Trevi Fountain's €2 access only applies until 10pm.

Rome night and ghost tours: questions

Is Rome safe at night?

The centre is busy and generally safe in the evening, though pickpocketing is common in crowds. Use licensed white taxis late at night.

Can you go inside the Colosseum at night?

Only on special evening openings, which run in some summer periods. Most night tours see it from outside, lit up.

Are golf-cart tours good for older travellers?

Yes. They involve very little walking and reach several viewpoints that are hard to get to on foot in one evening.
