Review of Rome’s Vespa self-drive tour, with Colosseum views, Trastevere gelato, hilltop panoramas, practical rules, and honest value advice.

“This Vespa tour was hands down the best part of my trip to Rome! Riding through the city on a Vespa with our amazing guide Manuel was an unforgettable experience. He was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and took us to the most beautiful hidden spots that I never would’ve discovered on my own. From stunning viewpoints to charming backstreets, every moment felt magical. I had so much fun and felt like I was living in a movie. If you’re coming to Rome, don’t miss this tour—it’s an absolute must!”

Bardolino: Lake Garda self-guided Vespa tour

8.Bardolino: Lake Garda self-guided Vespa tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 16 reviews

Review of Bardolino’s self-guided Vespa tour around Lake Garda, with scenic roads, ferry crossing, lunch, costs, licenses, and practical tips.

“Basically the idea of a self-guided tour and then the surrounding area. Our scooter was great too. The only thing I would have wished for is that there were more options to choose from that you could look at. In the end you can decide for yourself whether you want to stop at a "station" anyway, but we would have liked more attractions. Limone, for example, wasn't a stop on the map, but we stopped on the recommendation of our friends and found that it was by far the nicest stop.”

Ride an electric Vespa through Chianti from Florence, visit Montefioralle and Greve, and enjoy a Tuscan lunch on this self-guided day tour.

“Heel leuke activiteit! Lekker eten ‘s middags en leuke regio om door te rijden. Tip: let goed op dat je Vespa aan het opladen is wanneer je deze onderweg zou opladen in het restaurant. In principe kan je de tour doen zonder opladen, maar wij hadden het wel nodig. We hadden blijkbaar niet juist opgeladen tijdens de lunch en zijn moeten stoppen tussendoor. Niet veel hulp gekregen over waar we vervolgens stroom konden vinden. Verder was de organisatie betrouwbaar en vriendelijk.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 9 reviews · 7 to 8 hours (approx.)

Ride a Vespa around Lake Garda from Salò, with ferries, mountain views, local food, Malcesine, and a GPS-guided route.

“While the staff was friendly, this was unfortunately a very disappointing experience and not what was advertised. We arrived ~30 minutes after the listed start time, but were told we would still have enough time for the full tour. From there, it was a disaster. The instruction on how to use the Vespa was extremely rushed, which already set the tone for the day. The first recommended stop came less than an hour in, after a short ferry ride. We weren’t ready to stop yet, but went along — only to find unfriendly service, where the server actually told us “no, you stay, don’t worry you won’t be late for…”
