In the very car you booked: the full nautical-canvas enclosure, with windows and soft doors, keeps the cabin dry. No swapping to another vehicle. If the weather turns genuinely bad, we move your date or refund everything.

Children are welcome

Our cars are road-homologated and fitted with seat belts, and child seats can be installed: we provide them on request. Just tell us the children's ages and how many when you book.

You choose the car

Frequently asked

Is the experience private?

Yes. The car is yours for the whole booking: no groups, nobody else on board, no convoy to follow.

Where do we meet?

On Via Labicana in Rome, next to Palazzo Manfredi, a few steps from the Colosseum. Check-in and briefing take about fifteen minutes.

Do I need an International Driving Permit?

If your licence was issued outside the European Union, yes: you need an International Driving Permit together with your original licence. Get it in your home country before you travel — it cannot be issued in Italy.

What happens if it rains?

You go anyway, in the very car you booked: the full nautical-canvas enclosure with windows keeps the cabin dry. In genuinely bad weather we move your date or refund you in full.

Can I bring children?

Yes. Our cars are road-homologated and fitted with seat belts, and child seats can be installed: we provide them on request, just tell us when you book.

What is the range and how far can I drive?

The car is handed over fully charged and the range covers the whole Castelli loop, there and back, with no charging stops. The suggested route is calibrated on the car's real range.

What happens if I damage the car?

A security hold is placed on your credit card at pick-up and released on return if the car is undamaged. In case of damage the excess stated in your booking confirmation applies.

Can I drive into Rome's ZTL?

The suggested route leaves from Via Labicana towards the Appian Way and the hills without crossing the city-centre ZTL. If you choose other roads, any gates and fines are the driver's responsibility.
