It was a very informative and fun tour - time flew by and Stefano was very entertaining. Enjoyed seeing sights with a different perspective. Especially enjoyed the Trastavere stop as it was off the beaten path. The tour had taken extra precautions to ensure participant safety. Will do this tour again!

Awesome tour and I’m very glad we booked it! The guide was great and stopped at many places we would not have been able to access ourselves, riding the Vespas was really fun and the drivers were great and drove safe. My only suggestion would be for the company to ensure all the Vespas have a seat at the back or more stability to hold onto when riding behind the driver (sidecar was completely fine!). Some of the Vespas had an additional back support/seat to rest on, a better footrest or a handle that you can also grab on the side car while others had nothing except the two side handles and those definitely were less stable. I felt fine but my mother unfortunately did not feel safe riding behind the driver so she stayed in the sidecar the whole time. Regardless, still a great tour but assess one’s comfortability and risk tolerance before deciding where to sit!

We highly recommend this tour. Our driver Stefan is also our guide. He is amazing. Funny knowledgeable and kept us safe driving through the beautiful streets of Rome! It is an unique experience to explore Rome on a Vespa. Me and my boyfriend really enjoy the journey with him.
