About this tour
Tear through Messina's hillside roads and coastal vistas on a guided scooter tour spanning five hours. You'll weave past the iconic Duomo bell tower, climb to military lookouts overlooking the strait, cut through forested backroads to reach the Dinnammare Sanctuary, and wrap up sampling Messina's best local foods. Each scooter seats two; petrol and safety kit included.

What to expect
Expect a mix of urban navigation through Messina's streets followed by twisting mountain passes through quiet woodlands. The pace is guided—your leader sets it—so you're not racing but covering ground steadily. Key stops offer breathing room: the Duomo square for photos, the military sanctuary for views across water, and the final sanctuary perch before descending. The ride ends with a food stop where you'll taste house specialities: expect cheeses, cured meats, perhaps local sweets. You'll be sitting pillion or driving, so rider experience helps but isn't essential.
Good to know
Two riders share one scooter unless you arrange otherwise in advance. Not suitable if you have spinal problems, are pregnant, or have cardiovascular concerns. Wear long sleeves and sturdy shoes. Petrol is covered; damage to the scooter is not. Bring a camera for the panoramas. Lunch itself isn't included, only the tasting portion.
