Things to do in Florence, Tuscany: The Best Vespa, Scooter & Moped Tours

October 17, 2021 Almeta Stockton

Florence is an art historian’s dream. The Galleria dell'Accademia bursts with works by Michelangelo, who is entombed within the frescoed walls of the Basilica di Santa Croce. Budding photographers can snap pics of the Ponte Vecchio bridge, and serious shoppers can spend a blissful afternoon wandering the shops of Piazza Santo Spirito. Tuscan cuisine pays homage to the region’s bounty. Swipe a hunk of crusty bread across a pool of local olive oil and you’ll be instantly transported to your happiest place.

Sadly due to recent times it was just the two of us on this tour, however did we get lucky! Our tour guide Marti ensured that we felt confident driving our little green beauty before we set off in to the Tuscan hills. Marti is an absolute credit to this tour, with her vast knowledge of the region and her experience as a sommelier. The tour is not only fun but informative as well. It gets you out of the city, you see the beautiful countryside with plenty of pit stops for photo opportunities and then end up in a stunning location for a light lunch and wine tasting down in the cellar. If you do one day trip whilst in Florence THIS IS THE ONE!

The tour itself was not very well organized. The segways were fairly beat up, which was reflected in their poor maneuverability. The tour guide seemed to know the city but his ability to translate to English was not great. This was further exacerbated by the electronic communicators that were provided, which lacked the range to go beyond the first segway, so most of us couldn’t hear the tour guide.

Escape from the crowded streets of the city to see life as a local as you zip around the stunning Tuscan countryside on a REAL Vespa (with automatic gears)! The tour is perfect for all levels as we always begin with a lesson so that beginners may get the hang of driving. After the lesson, the real fun begins. We will zip through the winding country roads and stop for pictures along the way. You won't want to forget your camera on this trip - the sights are incredible and you will be in the heart of the Chianti region! After our picture break we will continue driving until we return to a private Tuscan winery to learn a little bit about how local wine and olive oil is created. With this tour you won't feel like just another tourist, you will get to explore Chianti like a real local!
