    Such great tour!

    Yohana_J, Feb 2026
    I had so much fun and had such a great adventure, Angelo is awesome! Not only he knows how to entertain, he's very thoughtful through the short tour, he showed me highlight of Rome and more, I definitely would recommend his service over and over again!

    Just Book It

    My friend recommended this tour and I will be forever thankful to her for doing so. Angelo is just an absolute gem of a human, with an infectious energy that we all need more of. Being a Rome local gives him knowledge of the places and routes that you won’t find online, but he also knows the highlights you want to see too. Having walked around a few days in advance of my tour, I knew Rome’s traffic was something to reckon with but my risk averse nature was immediately at ease. If you’ve come to this activity, you’re obviously thinking about it and I can only tell you to stop thinking about it and book it. Not only will you not regret it, it probably will be the highlight of your trip like it was mine.

    This Vespa adventure was one of my favorite things to do, Angelo was a wealth of knowledge about the history of Rome and showed us all around Rome!

    Great Tour!!

    Angelo was an excellent tour guide. He made the experience feel special. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area and took us around to some very intimate places. His partner in driving was knowledgeable and friendly. The end of the tour was a very nice surprise for us. We were also allowed to stop and have a glass of prosecco. Angelo was very polite, fun and wanted to make sure we had a good time. If you do this tour, there is no need to pay for the Colosseum tour. You will have an opportunity to visit the Colosseum and other areas you may want to visit. Spanish steps, and the Trevi, Fountain were included in the tour. To be honest the best time will be had if you allow him to be free and create an experience for you. Five stars. It was exciting and fun for me. Something I am glad I had an opportunity to to experience.

    What an amazing tour, our best experience in Italy and I don’t think It can be beat. Angelo and his team are so friendly helpful and professional. The Vespas are beautiful and well maintained. Angelo took us to all the sights in Rome and more. Your trip to Rome isn’t complete without doing this tour. Thanks you Angelo

    The best experience in Rome!

    Louise, Aug 2024
    My preferred method of transportation is now Vespa! The tour guides were so friendly, and Angelo did a great job of explaining the history of different sites. We saw everything one could hope to see and more, including cute side streets and impressive viewpoints. Highly, highly recommend this tour. Grazie Mille!

    Fantastic Vespa ride!

    I am so glad I booked this trip for my family. We loved Angelo and his friends. They are what made the trip so enjoyable. We would come back to Rome just to ride Vespas with them again! He showed us several hidden gems in Rome and pointed out some of his favorite restaurants. Thank you Angelo!!!

    Fabulous tour

    Sergio and Angelo were fantastic with our small group of 5. I felt safe and well informed the entire trip. It was thrilling to ride with on the Vespa and cover so much of the city in one evening. These are are awesome!
