Full description

Have fun riding a Vespa along the scenic and peaceful roads on the Tuscan hills. An alternative way to admire the sights of Chianti, wrapped in the sight of the Tuscan countryside and the sound of the working farms.

You can join the tour every day and enjoy this experience together with an escort who will be showing you around a small medieval village situated in the heart of Tuscany. Those who do not feel confident enough about riding on their own can opt to ride with one of the expert escorts. Think of the avenue of cypress trees immortalized in the typical postcard displayed outside any store in Tuscany. In just such an avenue, you will have the opportunity to stroll and take authentic photographs of the region. You will be guided to a winery for a tasting worthy of all expectations, accompanied by breathtaking scenery, in a peaceful and pleasant atmosphere.

The tour itself was nice and the streets used appropriate. The pick up service worked very good and was very friendly. The tour guide was endeavored to explain some facts about the stops but as I assume the guides are mostly students, I would have liked to get some more info about the places where the two stopps happened (do not get me wrong, I do not expect a lecture about the places to be visited). Also the time to look around (approx 15-20 min) was quite short (well the main aim is driving scooter). The visit of the winery was also nice and appropriate time wise. If the wine tasting would be combined with a small snack lunch (finger food) it would have been good). Summary, a nice trip with interesting stops and if a finger food lunch would have been included, the price value ratio would have been good. Now the trip for 2 on 1 Vespa for EUR 318 (both including pick-up and drop-off) was a bit on the high side.
