“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.”

An English-speaking driver-guide provides commentary, helmets are supplied, and the small-group tour includes time for photos but no monument entrances.

“We booked 5 rides- two adults, two teens, and a senior citizen. We were very pleased with the tour and the Vespa rides. Our guides were knowledgeable about the city and fun to converse with. The only drawback was that we had ordered 5 sidecars and only one of the vespas had a side car. (The rest of us sat on the back of the Vespa seat with the drivers.) Also, it was hard to get in touch with the guides before the experience. We waited for a while but our guide did not see us at first and we didn't know who to look for.”
