How else should one see...

How else should one see the sights in Rome? Great experience & we had such a fun time. Not ideal if you want to visit inside of every location but this type of tour suited our travel style.

Vespa Tour or Rome

Gabe_A, Nov 2024
We kicked off our trip to Rome with this Vespa tour. We had Marco as our guide and he showed us the city while giving us plenty of photos opportunities. He explained and gave the history of the most important landmarks. This trip is NOT for the faint of heart as the traffic and maneuverability through small streets can be intimidating if you are not used to it. Definitely worth it if you have experience riding a Vespa or motorcycle. Marco rode slow to ensure we kept up and pulled over, as needed, to wait for us. It was a blast!

A Local’s Perspective on the Eternal City

warren_k, Oct 2023
Being our first time in Rome, this was the perfect way to take in the way local way of life and history of the city. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and had so much to say about every stop along the way. If you only have a few days here and want to experience the best of Rome with a personal tour guide this is it!

Fun experience to spice up your trip

Lena_V, Oct 2023
We had a great time and recommend this trip to all adults. It’s a fun way to experience Rome and Vittorio was very informative and engaging telling us all about the history of Rome!

Wo-wo-wo-wo-wo! Excellent!

We really enjoyed our tour with Victorio! He was an enthusiastic guide that showed us all the great sites of Rome! He had a great personality and even started saying “wo-wo-wo-wo-wo” when Debra said it while threading through Rome’s busy traffic. We loved it very much and will request him again when we get back to Rome! Ciao!!

Rome et son histoire en Vespa....

igor_v, Jun 2024
Une magnifique expérience, merci à Marc notre guide !!! Il nous a fait découvrir les sites iconiques ainsi que la saveur des petites ruelles et endroits plus meconnus, mais surtout, il nous a conduit à travers les epoques, les courants politiques et influences qui ont façonnés Rome telle que nous la connaissons aujourd'hui. Un guide passionnant et passionné. Merci Marc.

Tolle Tour für alle die das italienische Feeling wollen

Anne_M, Jun 2023
Wir hatten Glück und haben Alexander als Guide bekommen, der neben englisch auch deutsch sprach. Die Tour war kurzweilig und interessant. Wir hatten keine Lust auf stundenlange Begehungen diverser Gebäude sodass diese Tour genau das richtige für uns war. Erfahrung im Rollerfahren sollte bei dem römischen Verkehr aber vorhanden sein.

Die perfekte Vespa-Tour!

Stefan_Irene, Jul 2021
Wir hatten mit Alexander den perfekten Guide. Wir haben Rom schon gut gekannt, er zeigte uns ganz neue Ecken Roms u. hat sich ganz auf unsere Wünsche eingestellt. Der Spass stand im Vordergrund. 1.000 Grazie!!
