Overview

Ready to ride through the stunning Tuscan hills on a guided Vespa tour? Hop on a 50cc Piaggio Vespa and cruise the scenic country roads on this 6-hour adventure from Florence.

You will be picked up from the center of the city by a comfortable air-conditioned minivan. On arrival at our base, your guide will deliver a safety briefing. Master the basics of riding a Vespa, and check you’re familiar with the motorcycle’s controls.

Inhale the pristine air of the beautiful Tuscan countryside. Pass sprawling vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see. The smell of the earth and the wind on your face allow you to fully immerse yourself in the magic of Tuscany. Admire vineyards, olive groves, and medieval churches and visit the town of Greve in Chianti for a taste of local treats.

Your guide will fill you in on Tuscany’s rich history and culture along the way. You'll also visit a local Chianti winery for a tour of the cellars. Enjoy a guided tour and check out the cool cellars and rows of oak barrels where the wine slowly matures. Learn how wine is made and aged, then savor a traditional Tuscan meal with wine and olive oil tastings.

Enjoy a traditional Tuscan lunch or dinner (depending on your chosen departure time), served with a wine and olive oil tasting.

Please reach meeting point 15 minutes prior to the departure. Latecomers or no show will not be refunded.

Rain Policy:

Provided that we will do our best to proceed with the tours, avoiding the rain and thus possibly carrying out the tour with our minivan

until and if the rain should stop and street conditions will guarantee a safe ride.

If it does not stop raining, the entire tour will be conducted in the safety and comfort of the minivan.

Since we are aware that the experience running today, might not be the one you had wished for, we are hereby giving you the following

choices, to be IMMEDIATELY communicated to our Front Office Staff DURING THE CHECK-IN PROCEDURE:

1. Proceed with the tour hoping for clearing weather – PARTIAL RIDE or NO RIDE due to heavy RAIN Customers can decide to proceed with the tour hoping for clearing weather with the understanding that if scooters are not ridden at all due to rain, or if the Vespa tour is dramatically abbreviated due to rain, customers will NOT be granted any refund or discount.

We will do our best to get you on a scooter, weather permitting.

2. Reschedule the tour for another day, subject to availability.

If no suitable date / time is available for the reschedule, you will be able to choose any other experience available, with an equal or less value, or eventually an experience with a higher value, paying only the difference.

Please note that clients' safety and comfort are of utmost priority, and proper rain gear is mandatory for guests choosing to "ride in the rain".

We ask clients to be at the meeting point 15 minutes before the tour departure, to check the weather conditions and choose accordingly. No-shows will not be refunded.
