About this tour
Rent a Vespa 125cc and navigate Rome's cobbled streets, piazzas, and neighbourhoods on your own schedule. This 3-hour to full-day rental pairs a well-maintained scooter with insider route guidance, leaving you free to chase whatever catches your eye—a quiet trattoria down an alley, a lesser-known fountain, or a spin through the city's beating heart. Staff brief you on the bike and road conditions before you roll out. Unlimited kilometres, helmet and lock included. Fuel costs extra.

What to expect
You'll meet the team at a central location, walk through the Vespa's controls, helmet fit, and navigation tips, then head into traffic. Rome's narrow lanes demand focus but reward with pockets of calm between major sights. Parking is tight; use the provided lock. Staff can suggest quieter routes or direct you to neighbourhood gems—trattorias, markets, churches tucked away from tourist flows. Expect cobbles, scooters everywhere, and the occasional impatient driver. The bike handles well but needs respect on wet streets.
