Chianti Vespa Adventure – Small Group from Florence
Description
Ride through Tuscany like a local on the back of an iconic Vespa! Start your day in Florence, where you can join our guides for an unforgettable adventure through the enchanting Chianti countryside. After a quick orientation session and a safety briefing, it's time to hop on your Vespa whether you're driving solo or sharing the ride with a friend and let your journey begin. Follow the picturesque backroads lined with vineyards and olive groves, where medieval villages await, inviting you to stop for photos along the way. Feel the refreshing breeze, listen to the Vespa's gentle hum, and discover why this is one of the most authentic ways to explore the beautiful region of Tuscany. Around midday, we’ll stop at a traditional Tuscan villa for a light lunch of local specialties: cold cuts, pecorino cheese, bruschetta, and a tasting of Chianti wines and extra virgin olive oil. In the afternoon, ride back to Florence with great memories.

The day was amazing. The guide was excellent and very informative. The attention and to detail and taking the time to make sure everyone was comfortable with riding. The lunch after the ride was also outstanding. I had a great time with 5 out of 5.

A total must-do if you truly want to embrace Tuscany with your whole heart (and maybe a little dramatic flair). There is simply nothing like cruising through the rolling Italian countryside on a Vespa — wind in your hair, sun on your face, vineyards blurring past like you’re starring in your own European film. Somehow the second you hop on, you’re no longer a tourist… you’re Italiano. 🇮🇹 You start gesturing with one hand (safely, of course), craving espresso at every turn, and contemplating which hilltop village will be your future summer home. It’s freedom, it’s romance, it’s a tiny engine carrying big main-character energy. Bellissima, bravissima, and absolutely unforgettable.

The ride was nice in the Chianti hills although they did not let us have lunch (reimbursed the amount of lunch). Let’s say that the tasting without having eaten anything then you pay 🤣. Beautiful experience but, in my opinion, really overpriced.

Sveva was our guide- gave great instruction for safety and guided us through 2 beautiful Towns in Chianti and a vineyard. It’s such a great way to get outside and see the beautiful scenery. We had a pick up location where a driver brought us to the Vespa location. It was about a 40 min drive- there was a little difficulty finding each other but the call center was very helpful.

Please check the pick-up point.. we were never told that we have to reach Siena at 9:30 am for a departure... The title says from Florence and they NEVER booked that for us, which should have been INCLUDED.. a Very bad experience, and we are hoping to get a refund because this was a scam. PLEASE CLEAR EVERYTHING OUT WITH VIATOR. We had to cancel this experience because of this company not making our booking clear.
It began with a failure to pass the Vespa driving test. A little unfair as, unless you have been on a motorbike recently, you most likely will fail! We wound up in a 1960’s vintage Fiat 500 following the pack of Vespas. Shhh! Don’t tell anyone but we got the best deal - no cold hands, no bugs in your teeth and free hands to take lots of photos! I do think it would be a good idea for the tour company to indicate that you would need to pass a driving test in order to participate.
Dear Customer, it is so nice to know that you enjoyed this journey with us . We wish to have you back to experience more tour together. P.S we will take in consideration your suggest Best Regards my tour in Italy
A nightmare. Our Vespa and Wine tour was supposed to be the highlight of our trip. I asked before booking what happens if it rains (the forecast said 90% chance) and they said a full refund would be permitted. Our tour was rained out and the company could not provide alternative because they didn’t have one for the large group. They refused to offer a full refund like they had promised. Also, just a warning that vespas are incredibly dangerous. (My party all signed waivers and knew and were happy to take the risk). In the morning, about 15 minutes into the tour and the couple in front of us got in a terrible accident with a local transport truck, it was traumatizing for every member in the group. I was right behind the accident and I will remember the horror of what I saw my entire life. We waited for ambulance for over nearly two hours and the company did nothing to comfort the rest of the group. Not even offered a bottle of water. Extraordinary circumstances do happen but this company failed at handling this experience. The rain poured heavily and made it unsafe to continue, they couldn’t provide an alternative and we were denied any kind of refund. Would never trust this company again, ever.
Terrible! After driving 40 mins we arrived at departure place at 920am was told they left at 930am but has already gone. Said no refund as well which we will argue. Please don’t book.
Dear Sophie We feel sorry to hear this. We are very strict about our schedules, we can wait 5 minutes max but we don’t start a tour before We remain at your disposal for further information Best Regards myTour in Italy
Great time and our guide gave us extra time to explore. Several stops and a good lunch. Exactly what you think of when you think of Tuscany.
