Wow - Great time. Lots of fun’s riding the Vespa. Great tasting food. Had to deal with some rain. But Mother Nature should not be questioned. The couple I came with couldn’t ride the Vespa. They accommodated them with vintage car.

Great experience on a classic Vespa - Chris and Stefano were super great getting us on the Vespas. It was a highlight of the trip for us as it gets you out of the city and into the countryside.

This tour is a cannot miss! - This is by far the highlight of our time in Florence! There is a great focus on safety with explaining how the Vespa works and doing practice rides prior to the tour. The drive is amazing and the views unbelievable! You get to stop a few times along the way for beautiful views of Tuscany along with hearing the history of Florence/Tuscany. Highly highly recommend!

Awesome Vespa Experience - This was one of the highlights of our trip to Florence. After walking for two days in a row, it was so nice to relax and get out of the busy city. This tour was so fun! The instructors were friendly and walked us through use of a Vespa. I chose to ride along with my husband so I did not drive the Vespa but my husband did very well despite limited experience! We were able to see amazing views, learn more history and the lunch provided was authentic and relaxing! Definitely recommend!!

Tuscany Tailgate - Be prepared for a fun day of cruising through the beautiful Tuscany countryside on a guided Vespa tour. You will load onto a bus in Florence where they will drive you about 20 minutes to the “Vespa Barn”. Your professional guide will make sure you are comfortable riding on a Vespa before the group heads out. You’ll have about 10 Vespa’s in your tour and you will follow the guide (ours was Teiro, who did a great job!). You will wind around curvy country roads and stop along the way to enjoy the beauty. You’ll be on the Vespa’s for about 3 hours which includes a couple stops and a wonderful lunch/wine at a private residence that has a panoramic view. I would not recommend this for young children (they can ride on the back). Time to create a memory 🩷
