Amazing Views! - What a great experience!! The Vespas are pretty easy to operate buy if you're going tandem, my wife had a little trouble getting going with me on the back (I'm pretty dense at 5'9" & 210 lbs while she is 5'1" & 130 lbs) so I let her take it by herself and go around the block, pick me back up and I took us from there. They have a built in map for their tour but if you make the wrong turn, it will not help you get back on track so I suggest just plugging in each POI into Google Maps and following Google Maps. I also recommend following the guide and POI suggestions as it takes you to some absolutely beautiful views of Florence. I will say my wife is pretty strong and am avid weightlifter so if the weight difference between you and your partner is large and you want to split time driving, just get 2 Vespas.

Seeing. Italy. - We rented these vespa while traveling and spending some time in Italy. The women at the shop couldn’t be nicer and more helpful. We did a self guided to work which was nice and PS directions were a little confusing, but other than that the experience was wonderful.

Fun ride through the Tuscany hills - It was fun and Nadia was very nice and helpful. The only thing we had a problem with was the meeting point. I was only given a street name and not a number. We had a hard time finding the exact location of the meet. The ride was easy and the views were beautiful. The last stop at B station was great and everything was delicious. I would recommend E-Dway for Vespa tours

Great way to see the outskirts of Florence. - The manager was extremely helpful. Be careful because the gos route guide may run down phone battery before getting back. Multiple drivers should use one phone at a time

Great time! - Great quality time spent with my two sons, such a special and unique way to experience all that Florence has to offer. Nice way to end inside the Roman gate with charcuterie and wine at “B Station”.

Vespa fun in the hills - We did this tour and loved every minute. It was a joint tour with the Fiat 500’s, 2 couples in them & just us on the Vespa. Our guides, Alessio, Matteo & Luca were all wonderful, engaging & knowledgeable. Great personalities and good humour. We were given clear instructions on how to ride, had a little test run & off we went.
My partner rode the bike with me on the back. The views were sensational and the ride was easy. We stopped on occasions to take some amazing pictures and were told about the area. Loved being in the open air, riding in the breeze through beautiful countryside.
I cannot thank the boys enough for the enjoyment I got out of today. Grazie

Give it a go - We had a good time on this eVespa self drive tour and saw some wonderful views despite the rain.
Sadly, we were unable to download the tour onto our phones but Ovidiu took the time to help us put in the various locations onto Google maps and even gave us his direct number in case we needed any help.
We didn't take part in any food tasting as I didn't recieve any information regarding location or reservation timings from the restaurant where this takes place. This was a disappointment as we had paid for it as part of the experience.
Despite the issue with the restaurant we had an enjoyable time and would recommed this experience. Ovidiu was great to speak to and was very professional.
If you book this experience and you haven't heard from the restaurant it would be a good idea to get in touch with them ahead of your scheduled tour.

Super Fun! - We had such a fun time! There are a few complaints that I have: First off, we arrived when we were supposed to and after waiting our turn and getting set up, a whole hour had passed. It was frustrating, because we were rushed with our tour, and we did not have time to do the whole thing. They offered for us to buy another hour, but I feel like that is something that should have been offered for free. So word to the wise, GO EARLY! Another issue was that we did not know that we needed cell service for this tour, I wish that would have been made more clear to us. The only thing it said on the tour requirements was "smartphone needed." I could tell that the tour operator was very frustrated with us, but we did not know that was a requirement! So, make sure you have an international phone plan to do this tour! Overall, we had such a fun time, but there were definitely some hiccups.
