An amazing experience and great way to explore rome instyle on a vespa! Gianni and Adam were fantastic and took us to spots in rome we did not even know exist giving us information regarding the city. We thank you gianni and adam for an amazing time and adventure during our stay in rome. Highly recommend to all
What an experience! Myself and my 11 yr old son got to see places we would have never seen. Carlo took us to the highest point in Rome for 12pm and my son got to see the canon being fired. He asked us where we wanted to go and what we hadn't seen yet. Was totally worth the money - spent so much more in taxi to see half the places. Our driver/tour guide was amazing took photos etc couldnt ask for more! Thank you
Anil was our guide and Mounir, Claudio and Giovanni were our drivers. We had an amazing night, so much fun and visited lots of sites. Highly recommended
It was simply brilliant. The team were very polite and fun. The whole family thought it was the most exhilarating experience.
Extremely disappointing experience not worth the money. I booked a Vespa tour in Rome for 6 people and paid a significant amount extra specifically to make sure that each person would have their own separate Vespa with sidecar. Unfortunately, when we arrived at the meeting point, the tour operator had made a mistake and did not bring enough Vespas for our group. We had planned our entire day around this experience, so it was incredibly frustrating to find out that we could not do the tour as booked. We had also paid for an Uber to get to the meeting point, only to have to pay for another Uber afterward because the tour could not go ahead. This completely disrupted our plans and ruined what was supposed to be one of the highlights of our day in Rome. They rescheduled us for the following day. While the young man who took us out was a nice person, unfortunately, he was a very poor tour guide. The guides seemed to have very limited knowledge about the places we were visiting, and we learned very little about Rome or its history. It felt more like being driven around than actually experiencing a guided tour. To make matters worse, one of the Vespas broke down during the tour, and we ended up having to ride back as passengers on the back of the other Vespas. After everything that had already gone wrong, this was the final disappointment. For the amount of money we paid, I expected a well-organized, professional experience. Instead, there were multiple logistical problems, poor communication, and a tour that did not come close to what we paid for. I would not recommend this company, especially if you are planning your day around the tour or paying extra for a specific experience. Rome is amazing, but unfortunately, this tour was a major disappointment.
Anil, Adam, Asim and Carlo was our drivers, we had an amazing time with them riding through Rome in style! Would love to do it again!
We had an amazing time whizzing around Rome in individual sidecars. Our drivers were extremely polite, friendly, knowledgable and looked after us really well. There was time to take some photos at the Colosseum, a fountain and with a panoramic view of Rome from Gianicolo hill. Would highly recommend! Superb and fun experience! Thank you to Carlo and co!
It was a wonderful experience for us. Especially our Rider Carlo and his colleagues explained everything about the history of the view points and they were very Kind and Friendly. Also they took a lot of wonderful pictures of us. I would recommend everyone should try this experience
We had an absolutely amazing time! Anil was a fantastic guide — knowledgeable, friendly, and always making sure we had everything we needed. A huge thank you as well to our drivers, Carlo, Claudio, and Giovanni, who got us everywhere safely and were great company along the way. The whole experience was so much fun from start to finish, and this team made it truly memorable. Highly recommend!
Very good time, nice for discovering the city in an atypical way. Our guides were very nice.
