The experience

A Vespa ride as a passenger through Florence’s streets, with a stop at a real wine window.

A Vespa tour ridden entirely as a passenger behind an experienced local driver, weaving through central Florence’s streets and up to viewpoints a coach or walking tour can’t easily reach, no scooter licence or riding experience required.

The route includes a stop at one of Florence’s historic buchette del vino, or wine windows — small openings once used to sell wine directly from a family’s cellar, and now serving small pours to passers-by once again.

Before you go

A few essentials for the day.

  • A minimum age or height may apply for the passenger seat; check at booking.
  • Dress for wind and, in cooler months, cold — an open scooter has no windshield for a passenger.
