Rome at night is a different city: cooler, emptier and lit up. A Rome night tour is the easiest way to see it, and two very different ones share a 4.9 rating on Viator. An e-bike tour with dinner and wine covers the monuments in four hours, rated across 1,346 reviews, from about $68. A ghosts and legends walk from Campo de’ Fiori tells the city’s dark history in two hours, rated across 733 reviews, from about $30.

The verdict
The e-bike tour is our pick: 1,268 of 1,346 reviews are five stars, and it is the best way to see many lit-up monuments in one evening without walking for hours. Dinner and wine are included, with vegetarian and gluten-free options. Reviewers call it the highlight of their stay and say the e-bikes are easy to ride.
The ghost walk is shorter and cheaper, and it is more about stories than sights: legends, executions and haunted palaces around Campo de’ Fiori, with an interactive ghost-hunter kit. It suits travelers who want an evening of storytelling on foot.
Both offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
The e-bike tour rides on city streets and cobblestones, in the evening. You should be comfortable on a bicycle; the electric assist handles the hills, not the traffic. The ghost walk has no age or fitness demands, but its stories are macabre: think twice with young children.

How a night tour fits a stay in Rome
By day, the city’s big sights need tickets: see the Colosseum tour and the Vatican Museums tour. For more on two wheels, compare the three-day e-bike tour and the golf cart tour.
For evenings about food, see the Trastevere food tour and our best tours in Rome.
Want a darker evening? Compare the Rome ghost tour, with stories of executions and poisoners. True-crime fans should see the Rome crime tour, from Caesar’s assassination to modern cases. Our guide to ghost tours in Italy ranks the best-rated night walks.
