Great scooter tour

I took a scooter tour with Ciro and I had a great time. The tour allowed me to see various viewpoints of Naples, including Corso Vittorio Emanuele, Vomero, Posillipo, Castel Sant’Elmo, Mergellina… Ciro was very helpful, patient, and attentive. I am not an experienced driver, but he helped me during the journey and explained everything clearly and calmly. It is a very beautiful and practical way to see Naples, thank you again!

We took a complete tour of Naples with Ciro and his uncle. It was fantastic. They stopped at the various important spots in the city, with the most beautiful views. It is clear that they know the city by heart. They answered our many questions and played the role of photographers. We thank them. We recommend this tour. Moreover, they are experienced and professional drivers. Thank you once again to them. Our view of the city would not have been as complete without this tour. Thank you very much 🫶🏼

The best Vespa tour in Naples: a panoramic and historical journey through the sea, culture and breathtaking views!

An unforgettable experience to discover the real Naples! The panoramic and historic Vespa tour in Naples was undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and authentic experiences I have ever lived. As soon as you get on the saddle, you immediately feel the magic of the city: the noise of the engines that mixes with the lively voices of the streets, the scent of the sea coming from the Caracciolo seafront and the unmistakable energy of the Neapolitans who greet smiling at the passage of the Vespas. Driving or being accompanied by Vespa through the alleys and hills of Naples allows you to experience the city in a completely different way. It is not a simple sightseeing tour, but a real trip through time and Neapolitan culture. We start by crossing the historic neighborhoods such as the Centro Antico, Spaccanapoli and the Decumani, where history speaks through every stone, every church, every artisan shop. You then continue towards Piazza del Plebiscito, Castel dell’Ovo and the Lungomare di Mergellina, iconic places that, seen from the saddle of a Vespa, take on a whole new charm. The most exciting moment was definitely the panoramic route that goes up towards Posillipo and Vomero, from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the entire Gulf of Naples, with Vesuvius dominating the horizon and Capri seeming almost within reach. Stopping for a few photos with the wind in your hair and the city at your feet is something that remains imprinted forever. The guides were exceptional: nice, prepared and passionate. They tell anecdotes, curiosities and legends with a typical Neapolitan warmth, transforming each stage into a moment of discovery and fun. You can breathe the true soul of the city, made of history, tradition, music and spontaneity. In addition, the tour is organized in detail: comfortable and sanitized helmets, Vespas in perfect condition, safe and well-designed itinerary to avoid the most chaotic traffic and enjoy the city in total relaxation. Perfect both for those who visit Naples for the first time, and for those who live there and want to rediscover it from a completely different perspective. This Vespa tour is not only a tourist experience, but a 360-degree emotion: it’s freedom, it’s beauty, it’s pure Naples. It makes you feel part of an Italian movie of other times, with the sun, the sea and the story running before your eyes. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to live a romantic, fun and charming adventure. In a few hours you can enclose everything that Naples represents: art, culture, landscape and that wonderful madness that makes it unique in the world. A five-star experience, absolutely to be remade and recommended to anyone who wants to get to know the real Naples riding a Vespa!
