A must for us!!

Brittney_B, Jun 2025

So much fun!!! Getting to see the countryside via Vespa was a must for us!! We got to see things we wouldn’t have otherwise been able to so it was well worth the day!!! Tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and helpful, making sure we got the best out of the experience!

Roman Holiday — La Dolce Vita with Massimo and Benjamino… Mille Grazie!

Jennie_B, May 2025

This was the most excellent tour ever! We had two outstanding guides, Massimo and Benjamino, who took us to the Castel Gandolfo on the backs of Vespa scooters. It was wonderful to be able to enjoy the sights of central Rome and the beautiful countryside thanks to our expert guides. Driving on the Appia Antica is beautiful — from the lush gardens and forests, to the ancient ruins, there’s no place like it in the world. We saw the pope’s former summer residence (it’s a museum now) and stopped in beautiful lakeside towns. Then we had one of the best meals I’ve ever had in my life lunch. I highly recommend a guided Vespa tour with this company if you have the chance to spend a day seeing the Roman country side. Thank you Massimo and Benjamino for the hospitality. It was a perfect day!

Unforgettable experience

David_D, Jul 2023

This tour was the highlight of our trip to Italy. It was amazing! My husband and my two children who are in their 20s had the most incredible time with Victorio and Benjamin. We felt very safe the entire time, and they showed us a view of the history of Rome and the beautiful Italian countryside that we would not have seen any other way. The lunch was incredible and the views were breathtaking. Highly worth the price per person if you are looking for a vespa tour look no further this is the one that you want.
