Helmet and insurance included; the driver handles all navigation.

Highlights

  • Ride pillion on classic Vespa through central Rome
  • Cover major sights in rapid succession from two wheels
  • Stop at scenic photo spots curated by experienced rider
  • Private transport with seasoned local driver
  • Insurance and helmet supplied

What to expect

You'll be a passenger on the back of an iconic Vespa, gripping the handholds as your driver navigates Rome's tight streets and piazzas. Expect a brisk pace—more sensation than leisurely sightseeing. The engine noise and wind make conversation difficult, so communication happens via hand signals and pauses at photo stops. Your driver knows which viewpoints reward a quick dismount and will position the bike for postcard-worthy shots. The whole run is 50 minutes to an hour; you're seeing Rome's highlights from a different angle, not studying them.

Good to know

Minimum age ten; weight limit 90kg per passenger. Not suitable if you have spinal issues, cardiovascular concerns, or limited mobility. Wear closed shoes. You're not driving—you're a passenger, so grip firmly and trust the rider. No pickup or drop-off included; arrange your own transport to the meeting point.
