Vespa-Tour durch die Toskana

We just went on the Tuscany Vespa tour and enjoyed every minute of our experience. After an easy check in, we took a van to the winery. We had 11 people in our family and another family also attended our time slot too! At the winery you take turns trying out the Vespa and seeing if you will be a good enough driver for the Vespa tour..this was important since you are going to be driving on roads and hills in the region. (You do go up and down a steep area on actual roads with cars) Alexa and Dejan did a great job of figuring out who was able to drive themselves and who should be passengers. I'm sure some of our group stressed them out but they were very patient and made it work so we had enough drivers and passengers for our day. There were 15 people who thought they would be drivers, and when we actually toured there was 8 drivers and the rest were passengers. This literally was the safest for everyone involved. We didn't get the GoPro package but it worked out since we had so many passengers. I do suggest the package if you do not have a passenger, the experience is very unique and as your driving, you dont get to really check out the scenery as much as a passenger would but I loved every minute of it! During the Vespa driving tour we did stop once to get off and take pictures. The area is beautiful!! At the winery, Lucca took us on a tour of the winery and then provided us with charcuterie, pasta and wine. The food and wine was delicious and we purchased olive oil for souvenirs. Not enough room for the wine! On the way back, they asked if we wanted to be brought back to the original location or dropped off at a look out point with a beautiful rose garden. We option that and it was only a 10 minute walk back to the heart of Florence. This was one of our favorite things we did in Florence and for sure a top 3 of our whole European 17 day trip. I highly recommend this tour, it was worth every penny!! Thank you again to Dejan, Alexa and Lucca for the wonderful day!!!

Lived the dream! The tour through the countryside was beautiful. We had such fun and friendly guides in Dejan and Alexa, they made the experience so memorable. Bonus points for them driving us home past Piazzale Michelangelo to catch the Florentine sunset! The sommelier at the Fattoria San Pancrazio winery was really pleasant as well. We appreciated all the detail he went into while explaining the history of the farm and the process of creating different flavors. Olive oil to die for, I brought some back with us! Note that it helps if you already have a little knowledge of riding a Vespa or something similar, because you get a couple test tries, but they only have so much time before they decide if you can be safe on the road or not (I get it, I wouldn’t want to spend all day in the parking lot either if it cuts into the actual tour).

Such a fun and memorable experience! We rode Vespas through the Tuscan countryside, took in the most beautiful views, and ended with a delicious lunch at a winery—complete with fresh pesto. Highly recommend if you’re in Florence!
