This was a fanatic trip and worth every penny. To ride around time in an authentic Vespa really is amazing. You get to see some amazing sights. Great photo opportunity. We did this with our 10year old son and never stopped smiling. Carlo and Arsam were some friendly and they threw in some historic information.

This experience was amazing! My kids loved it! Sitting in the side car they were able to take pictures and video of the sites. Our guide was friendly and stopped and let us out a couple of times for pictures and brought us to a scenic park with breathtaking views! I highly suggest a dusk ride ours was at 7pm in the summer and it was perfect.

    Anil and Carlo were our drivers. Fantastic 1 hour tour of the main sights and a couple more we would have never found on our own. Family with 9 and 12 year old. Perfect on a hot Rome day. Can’t thank them enough.

    Rome via Vespa

    Simon_F, Aug 2026
    Such a fun interesting way to view the highlights of Rome. Carlo our Vespa chauffeur was very informative and pointed out all of the interesting sites and answered all of our questions. We got to see Rome from all of the interesting little back streets and from the top of Rome with a view of the whole city. We highly recommend this tour

    Disappointing experience – safety issues and no commentar

    Karla_M, Aug 2026
    Disappointing experience – safety issues and no commentary. We booked a 1-hour Vespa sidecar tour in Rome through Viator, and unfortunately, it fell far short of our expectations for the price. First, the ride was extremely bumpy, and my helmet wouldn’t stay secured properly—I had to hold onto it with my hands for most of the trip, which felt unsafe. Second, there was virtually no narration. Our driver remained silent almost the entire time unless we explicitly asked what specific buildings were. The listing should have made it clear that this wasn't a guided or narrated tour. To make matters worse, when we stopped and asked to take a quick photo of ourselves in the sidecar, our driver refused and said there was "no time." Meanwhile, the driver for the other group right next to us allowed them plenty of time to pose and take pictures in their cart. We wish we had known what to expect beforehand, as this felt more like a rushed ride than a proper tour.

    Fun for the kids!

    Jessica_R, Aug 2026
    I would definitely recommend this tour if you are traveling with kids and want a quick experience. There is not a lot of commentary so don’t expect that, but the kids enjoyed anyways.

    Highlight of Rome Trip!

    Jajaida_G, Jul 2026
    Our tour guides Arda, Fabri and Carlo were great fun! The tour was a great highlight and I especially loved that it was a late night tour— the weather was more pleasant. I highly recommend the tour! If you have teens! They would love it!

    Fun and safe

    roberta_l, Jul 2026
    I had a great time while on the Vespa tour with my guide. I was a solo traveler and no one else booked that day. It was a nice drive around town to get to know where everything was. Driver was safe and looked like they were having fun too. I would say that I could only speak and hear him when we were stopped as it was too loud for everything else, as a result it was mostly, this is this and that is that when we got to a spot and even then just a drive by. Fun though!

    We had a great time! Riding around Rome on the back of a Vespa or in the sidecar is hard to beat. This tour didn't have a lot of commentary, but the experience was incredible. Highly recommended!
