Alkan and Adan, our guides, were absolutely amazing! The best we could’ve asked for. Made sure to give us the best time, and took some great pictures of us on the bikes! The tour was the perfect amount of time to see the hot spots in Rome, and also made everything easy and comfortable for us. We went with our 8 year old daughter and she loved it also!

    Jessica_L, Apr 2026
    So much fun!!! We were 4 adults and 4 kids ages 10, 10, 12, and 13. We felt safe the entire time and the kids absolutely had a blast! The guides were knowledgeable and shared the history of the city with each of us. Would highly recommend.

    Solo Trip to Rome

    tannypen, Apr 2026
    The tour guides were such kind, gentlemen. They made sure they put your safety first and that all were comfortable before showing us and educating the group on the historical sites. Not to mention all the attention that the cars got on the street. It’s like we were also a main attraction.

    Fun, quick way to get around Rome

    Angelica_L, Apr 2026
    Very friendly and attentive drivers (Hi Adam!) constantly made sure we were comfortable on the scooters. Kids had fun switching off from the back of the scooter to the side car. A fun way to do a quick tour of the city. Lots of people on the street took pictures of us as we drove by or at traffic lights, so we got a lot of attention! Would recommend as a novel way to see the city.

    Aybars and Munir were very friendly and informative. It was a spectacular day to take the tour and a unique experience. 1 hour was perfect to see the city.

    Great experience!

    Julie_B, Mar 2026
    So much fun! We got to see parts of Rome we would never have seen without a Vespa. The drivers were knowledgeable and careful. The kids loved riding in the sidecar. I do wish they provided a netting to cover my hair before putting the helmet on for sanitary reasons, but other than that, and excellent time.

    Top thing to do when you get to Rome

    Paola_T, Mar 2026
    What a wonderful first experience in Rome, recommend to anyone as their first thing to do in Rome. Yunus and Mumir were wonderful guides and made the whole experience better. Thank you to them for an incredible family experience.

    Must Do with family, especially tweens and teens

    LaDona_T, Mar 2026
    This was the BEST experience in Rome - a core memory for the rest of our lives. Arda and Alkan (our guides) were so genuine and friendly! They took lots of pictures and felt like new friends. 10/10. Must do.

    Must book for your trip to Rome! Family friendly!!

    The tour was amazing!!! I visited Rome on my own, so I booked the tour just by myself. My driver was Aybars and he was very nice and knew a lot about Rome and its history, so not only was it so fun but you also gain knowledge about Rome’s most iconic landmarks ( and also fun facts :) ) Highly recommend! PS. don’t let Aybars move to North Carolina!! :)

    Such a fun and...

    Ziyad_A, Jan 2026
    Such a fun and unforgettable Vespa sidecar experience. Everything was perfect - the ride, the views, and the energy. Special thanks to the driver ( Aybars ) for being professional, friendly, and making it a great memory.

    Enjoy

    WAIIN_T, Jan 2026
    It’s really cool to stay in side car and drive around Rome. The driver is very good and caring, also introducing the spots. If in night time is less traffic and smooth and cool, but just harder to take clear pictures. Also,You could upgrade to both ways pick ups,very recommend to explore! Even people on street will looks like so jealous and excited

    Best trip ever

    HaniM_S, Jan 2026
    This trip was one of the best I've had during my visit to Italy. Our College on the bikes were incredibly helpful and generous with their information. It was truly a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend it to everyone. Thanks Aybars and Alessandra.

    Excellent

    Marion_C, Dec 2025
    Aybars was our excellent guide, we thoroughly enjoyed it, sights we would have missed….he showed us many more highlights

    Soooo much fun!

    Kirsty_D, Nov 2025
    Perfect start to a trip to Rome. Drive past the major sites with very knowledgeable drivers. My daughter wanted a yellow sidecar and she got one! Soooo much fun 😊

    When in Rome…

    Gursewak_A, Sep 2025
    Best experience to have when in Rome. Gaye was amazing driver, she was professional, funny, helpful and courteous.

    Fun, whistle-stop of Rome

    Keith_M, Sep 2025
    We met Sam on time at the start location. Straight away he was engaging and fun. My wife went into the side car whilst I rode pillion. What followed was a breath-taking 60 mins tour around all 4 corners of Rome. It was fun, exhilarating and I would definitely do it again. If you have specific spots you want to see just tell Sam, otherwise hold-om and go with the flow. Excellent value and a great way to spend 60mins.

    Amazing!

    Wendy_W, Sep 2025
    Yunus was an amazing guide. This was a highlight of our trip!! So many sights to see and he has great knowledge of the history of the area. Roma by vesta is the best!

    So much fun

    Steven_P, Sep 2025
    Our driver was so much fun. He made our 1 hour feel like only 10 minutes! He was engaging making us laugh the entire time. So much fun

    Loved our Vespa Tour!

    Amy_N, Sep 2025
    This tour was so much fun! It was a great way to tour around Rome and Sam, Mustafa and Faik were fabulous tour guides! And the stop to take pictures was beautiful! One thing to note though is you cannot take them to the Major sites so you won't be seeing the usual tourist landmarks in Rome. Would highly recommend as a fun and different thing to do!

    Talk of the town

    Simon_R, Sep 2025
    Gaye was a fantastic host. We had such fun. One hour is all you need and this was such a great addition to our holiday. Grazie Gaye
