Bardolino: Lake Garda self-guided Vespa tour

14.Bardolino: Lake Garda self-guided Vespa tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 16 reviews

You’ll spend eight hours riding a modern 125cc Vespa from Bardolino around Lake Garda with the DGtalguide app. Follow a planned route over quieter roads, cross the lake by ferry, stop at Strada della Forra, enjoy a reserved family lunch, and pause for mountain produce and ice cream in Tremosine. Riding experience and the right license are required.

“Basically the idea of a self-guided tour and then the surrounding area. Our scooter was great too. The only thing I would have wished for is that there were more options to choose from that you could look at. In the end you can decide for yourself whether you want to stop at a "station" anyway, but we would have liked more attractions. Limone, for example, wasn't a stop on the map, but we stopped on the recommendation of our friends and found that it was by far the nicest stop.”
