Vespa Sidecar Tour By Night with Pickup

1.Vespa Sidecar Tour By Night with Pickup

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,803 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $146Our pick

Ride through Rome after dark on a vintage Vespa with a professional driver and guide. You’ll see Piazza Venezia, the Colosseum, Baths of Caracalla, Aventine Hill, Trastevere, and Janiculum Hill, then stop for gelato and coffee. Guides such as Manuel, Roberto, Andrea, and Simone are praised for lively stories and thoughtful service.

“Could not have been more fun and our drivers and guide were great! We stopped at sites with great reviews of history and structures, stopped for gelato at a place/ piazza identified as great by Stanley Tucci in his food search TV program (the red wine gelato is very good!) I expected something quick and cursory. This tour is not that! Loved it. And they are very accommodating for those with mobility issues, even to the point of positioning the side cars for maximum views and listening to the guide speaking.”

He is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Rome’s history and culture. At every stop, he explained the historical background in a very clear and engaging way, making the stories come alive rather than just listing facts. You could tell he genuinely enjoys sharing Rome with others. Aybars was also very friendly, professional, and attentive, making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. He…”
