AMAZING!!!! If I could leave more stars I would!!!
This trip was definitely worth doing! We got picked up early in Florence in a little car and driven out to the base where the Vespas are parked. We had a test drive before we took off and then we followed our guide Alex all around the hills of Florence!!
I’m normally easily scared but I felt really safe on the Vespa. If you’re hoping to go for a speedy ride, this probably isn’t for you my friend! The bikes didnt go above 50kmph with two people on them which was just right. Plus Alex took us down all the winding back roads so it was incredibly scenic without much traffic.
He stopped at various spots for photos and explained to us a lot about the wine from the region and how it is made. He was an incredibly knowledgable guide. He also gave us a lot of tips for where else to visit in Florence.
We then went to a very pretty hub where our other guide (also Alex) had made us an amazing meal and we had some awesome local wine.
We then went further round Florence before saying goodbye to the Vespas and being taken back to Florence.
Absolutely loved it!!! I know it doesnt initially appear to be the cheapest thing to do in Florence, but Alex and the team he works with are well worth it. You MUST give it a go. So much fun!!

This was a really good time! We had a small group of 7 people, which was really nice. Gabriel was our guide, and he was great, knowledgeable, and friendly. The lunch was super delicious ( try the pesto pasta), the hike was a lot of climbing up, mostly steps, dusty and rocky so be ready! My husband wore hiking boots, and I wore hiking shoes that totally saved our feet. Definitely glad we went! We had approximately 45-1 hour to swim in the last town before we got on the boat or you can walk around the town. Once on the boat you go to the last town before you get on the train to leave, you can do more shopping there too.
Hello,
Gabriele will be so delighted to see that you had a really good time and that you enjoyed the hike!
Thanks a lot for your time.

We had the best time of our live, with Lucca, Luigi and Max. It's a must do in Florence. You will learn, but also be entertaint by Lucca. He is a terrific guy, with a lot of humor. Max on the other hand is very serious and will tell you all the secrets of Gelato making. Don't forget Luigi, who always there to help you.
Hello,
Wow! You really made our day with such an outstanding review. We feel so honoured to read that you had the best time of your live.
Thank you SO much from all our team.

I took this tour in September 2019 and I highly recommend it from Florence. The tour was well planned and along with the lunch and the villages and information give each site that was stopped. It was beautiful.
Hello,
Thank so much for taking the time to bring back your nice memories of our Tuscany tour.
Come and see us again as soon as you can :)
