Itinerary

10 min

Designed during the urban redevelopment undertaken after Rome was declared capital of Italy, the Piazza della Repubblica is one of the most important squares of the city, and extremely striking. The Piazza della Repubblica is made up of a large roundabout with an exquisite fountain, Fontana delle Naiadi, surrounded by imposing buildings on one side and a seemingly demolished temple on the other.

5 min

The Quirinal Palace (known in Italian as the Palazzo del Quirinale or simply Quirinale) is a historic building in Rome, Italy, one of the three current official residences of the President of the Italian Republic, together with Villa Rosebery in Naples and Tenuta di Castelporziano in Rome. It is located on the Quirinal Hill, the highest of the seven hills of Rome in an area colloquially called Monte Cavallo. It has housed thirty Popes, four Kings of Italy and twelve presidents of the Italian Republic.

Pass by

Inaugurated in 1911 to pay respect to Victor Emmanuel II, the Monumento Nazionale a Vittorio Emanuele II (Altare della Patria) is an imposing building located in Piazza Venezia. It provides some breath-taking views of Rome. The Monumento Nazionale a Vittorio Emanuele was inaugurated in 1911 as a tribute to Victor Emmanuel II, the first king of Italy after the country's unification. Inside the building is the Institute for the History of the Italian Risorgimento and the Central Museum of the Risorgimento. Since 1921, the Victor Emmanuel Monument holds the tomb of the unknown soldier, a place in which the eternal flame shines and which is always guarded by two soldiers.

Admission not included30 min

The Pantheon of Agrippa, also known as the Roman Pantheon, is one of the architectural masterpieces of the Italian capital. It is the best preserved building from ancient Rome. Completed in 126AD, was a Roman temple with a surprising oculus that is the building's main source of natural light.

30 min

Trevi Fountain is the most beautiful fountain in Rome. Measuring some 20 meters in width by 26 meters in height, Trevi Fountain is also the largest fountain in the city. The origins of the fountain go back to the year 19 B.C., in which period the fountain formed the end of the Aqua Virgo aqueduct. The first fountain was built during the Renaissance, under the direction of Pope Nicholas V. The final appearance of the Trevi Fountain dates from 1762, when after many years of works at the hand of Nicola Salvi, it was finalized by Giuseppe Pannini. Interestingly enough, the name of Trevi derives from Tre Vie (three ways), since the fountain was the meeting point of three streets.

Pass by

The Spanish Steps (Scalinata di Trinità dei Monti in Italian) were built at the beginning of the eighteenth century connecting Piazza di Spagna and the Church of Trinità dei Monti. It is one of the most famous parts of Rome. The staircase is a favourite spot among tourists to sit, relax and enjoy the views of Piazza di Spagna

5 min

The Piazza del Popolo (meaning The People’s Square) is located inside the northern gate of the city, which was once called Porta Flaminia. The square is situated at the beginning of Via Flaminia and was the main entrance to the city during the Roman Empire. Once on the main route to the north, Piazza del Popolo is still strategically located. Three important streets part from the square: to the left, Via del Babuino; to the right, Via di Ripetta and to the centre the Via del Corso, one of the main high streets of Rome.

Pass by

St Peter’s Square or Piazza San Pietro is probably one of the world’s most famous squares and one of the most breath-taking. It is located in Vatican City, at the feet of St. Peter's Basilica. Designed by Bernini during the seventeenth century, it houses over 300,000 people.

15 min

Janiculum Hill, considered by many as the eighth hill of Rome, is a peaceful and refreshing attraction close to the city center. It's situated just outside the ancient city and is a great place to visit to get away from the bustle of Rome. Not to mention that the panorama from the top of the hill is breath-taking. As you walk up its pathways, you'll enjoy superb views of the city. Janiculum became very popular due to the important historical role that it played in the defence of the city. Becoming the setting for the battle in which Garibaldi repelled an attack from French troops, its paths are full of sculptures of the heroes, including Giuseppe Garibaldi.

Pass by

Soak up the neighbourhood’s bohemian atmosphere and its numerous landmarks. You'll enjoy a drive through the authentic soul of Rome's alleys and typical trattorias, passing by the picturesque Jewish Ghetto.

Pass by

The Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore is an ancient Catholic basilica that is considered to be the largest of the churches dedicated to the Virgin Mary in Rome. It is one of the city’s four major basilicas.

Amazing Experience! It was top-notch, and there’s no possible way to see that much of Rome in such a short amount of time unless you are guided. Highly recommend. Lots of fun cruising Vespas through Rome. And the pizza stop was excellent. Lots of wonderful vistas to take photos as well.

The most fun in Rome that you can experience!

This was the highlight of our visit to Rome! It was the perfect way to experience the flavor of the city via many small neighborhoods and see the notable sites while illuminated at night. We felt like rock stars as people smiled, waved, and photographed us. Claudio our guide and his drivers were professional, safe, friendly, and so much fun to spend the evening with.

A TOUR NOT JUST FOR TOURISTS.

Simply a wonderful experience! For our anniversary, my boyfriend chose a truly special way to remind me how fascinating Rome is, even though we have lived here for over 25 years. In just three hours of the tour, we were able to admire some of the most beautiful monuments and views of the city, accompanied by Monica, a highly knowledgeable, cultured, and passionate guide who made us fall in love with Rome even more. A compliment also goes to the sidecar drivers: friendly, helpful, and always kind. The tour started at 7:00 PM from Piazza della Repubblica and took us to discover wonderful places. One of the stops was a characteristic artistic pizzeria, where we enjoyed an exceptional pizza accompanied by a glass of wine, all included in the price. Subsequently, we visited the Gianicolo, the Pincio, the Colosseum, and many other places that I prefer not to reveal, so as to leave you the pleasure of surprise! The organization was impeccable: we were offered bottles of water and, after 8:30 PM, also jackets for those who felt a bit chilly on the sidecar (me 😂). It is an experience that is absolutely worth every euro spent. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience Rome from a different, authentic, and fun perspective. And finally, a special thanks to Luca: you are a great boss!

A great first-night-in-Rome experience

Fun and fast-paced. Staff were super-friendly and our guide, Monica, was awesome and a real hoot, very knowledgeable about the historical buildings, churches, monuments, etc. You will ride on Rome's broad avenues and its narrow, curving streets and alleys on cobblestone, getting into places that feel secret and intimate as well as those that are crowded and famous. Pizza tasting was wonderful, restaurant was beautiful. This was a wonderful introduction to Rome. Highly recommend.

Memorable Experience of Rome

Our guide Barbara and our two Vespa drivers went above and beyond to create a memorable evening experience in Rome. Despite traffic, demonstrations, and road blocks, they safely navigated us to all the sites on our itinerary. The pizza restaurant exceeded our expectations for the food, service, and ambience. The tour was a highlight of our vacation.

The three-hour Vespa tour was absolutely amazing and one of the best experiences of our trip! It was not only so much fun, but also incredibly educational. We got to see so many beautiful places and learn so much along the way. Monica was an amazing tour guide friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience unforgettable. She made everyone feel comfortable and kept the tour exciting the entire time. Riding through the city on a Vespa was such a unique experience, and we enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting definitely a must-do!

Vespa Sidecar Tour is a MUST DO!!!

BY FAR this is the most exhilarating and interesting tour you can do while in Rome! Seeing the city and all the magnificent Roman sites and ruins lit up at night while riding in an iconic Vespa is magical. Our guide was smart, engaging and super informative and our driver was patient and very safety conscious. Our gourmet pizza was absolutely scrumptious. The delighted smiles and waves we received as we passed through narrow streets too small for cars are still imbedded in my memory. A stop at the Trevi Fountain with an unexpected "skip-the-line" ticket while a special projection light show played across the façade was a real treat. If you're on the fence about this tour don't hesitate. Do it!!! You won't regret it.
