Leo did a great time guiding us and showing us the countryside! Very good for inexperienced riders. I would recommend this to anyone unsure about their abilities.

Best experience ever! From the time we arrived at the garage, Ado and Leo were so detailed on explaining the whole process, what to expect, how to thorough use and operate the Vespa and a training course so you knew how to operate it. We split into 2 groups and Ado was our guide. He was so informative about all the history, grapes wine making, the difference between the olives. Finished with a some delicious pasta and charcuterie tray and a glass of Chianti. If you can request a guide Ado and Leo will not disappoint! 5 + stars

Ado and Leo were incredible! They made sure everyone was safe and comfortable before taking the group on the most scenic, fun drive through the Florentino countryside. Views were incredible and the meal at the end was wonderful. 10/10 recommend if you are in the area!

This tour was soooo much fun!!! The vespas were delightful, and for people who didn’t feel comfortable they had to tiny electric fiat cars for people to drive that fit 2 people! Very accommodating staff all around. Do be prepared for an all afternoon experience, it takes a little while to get everyone situated with vehicles/vespas, but there are places to sit while you wait. Experienced drivers (motorcycle or Vespa experienced) got to go first and so we didn’t wait too long. A quick driving test was all that was required. No international license required, just your regular drivers license is fine. Gabriel was a fantastic guide, making sure we were all safe and having fun. He was very knowledgeable about the area and allowed plenty of time to get pictures and experience the stops along the way. The food for dinner was extremely yummy and plentiful…meats cheeses and a wonderful fresh tomato and basil pasta. Be aware that if you are a driver your serving of wine is very small for good reason. We went on this tour in October, and it did get chilly on the ride back, so wear layers. You can store a sweatshirt or jacket in the seat trunk for when needed. All of the staff for this tour were wonderful and kind….Im sorry I forgot to write the other names in my notes. 5 stars!!

We had a wonderful time on this experience for our honeymoon. Leo and Gabriele were awesome tour guides! I’m glad that I read the other reviews before this excursion because they do test you on your confidence for driving a Vespa or a manual Fiat. We ended up not driving the Vespa, I was not comfortable, and we drove the Fiat Topolino. This was just as fun in my opinion and gave my husband and I the opportunity to really take in the beauty of the Tuscan countryside. Leo was very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful. The sights were beautiful and lunch was fantastic! Pepe our bus driver was also extremely nice. 10/10 recommend this tour!

Chris was our tour guide and he did an awesome job. It was a fun ride on the Vespa and into the country. Those who were leery of riding had the opportunity to drive an electric car instead so all got to enjoy the experience. Beautiful ride!!

We absolutely loved the Vespa tour! The guides were so helpful in getting us comfortable with the bikes. Our main guide, Leo, was fun, informative, and worked hard to keep everyone safe, even in heavy traffic areas. The meal included was delicious and a perfect way to end the ride. Highly recommend this experience!

A fantastic day in the Tuscan hills around Florence. 4 staff looked after us and ensured our group had a most memorable day.

Wonderful experience. Easy to understand, met at a place in the city and walked to a bus together, then travelled about 25 min to the countryside where the garage is. Spend about 2 hours total from check in time to actual riding time. They will then show you how to drive the Vespa and ensure that you know how to operate it safely. If you don’t pass the “test” they will have a mini electric fiat that you can drive. The vespas are not very easy to drive and the roads that you travel are somewhat challenging. Nice pasta lunch at their property (they also have cooking classes). Overall wonderful experience, would definitely recommend. If you are somewhat uncomfortable on the Vespa, do the car. I would have enjoyed more in the car.
