Trastevere tours

Booking this Vespa sidecar tour for our Rome trip was the best decision I made, creating wonderful memories with my daughter. Before the tour, the drivers disinfected the helmets with alcohol and provided each of us with a headscarf to wear before putting on the helmet. They were also very gentlemanly, ensuring our helmets were properly secured and helping us get off the sidecar. They even assisted with taking photos at designated spots. Our guide, Barbara, was incredibly knowledgeable, and we were so lucky to have her explain Rome's history and the stories behind its ancient sites. When we arrived at the Trevi Fountain, she thoughtfully provided coins for everyone to make a wish. The tour fee included breakfast, admission to the Trevi Fountain, and Pantheon tickets. We passed by all these locations during the tour, stopping at several points for explanations and photos. Our group happened to be small but everyone was very easygoing. Receiving envious glances and having other tourists take pictures of us along the way made this a truly worthwhile and highly recommended tour. I'll even help them out by including their QR code! 😆

Our two drivers this time were Gao, a tour guide who graduated from the Chinese Department of the Sapienza University of Rome, and the lovely Maximo. A Vespa scooter fits one passenger on the back and one in the sidecar. The three-hour tour includes breakfast (both the coffee and the cornetto were delicious!) and is a very unique experience that allows you to quickly get a grasp of downtown Rome and its major attractions. Rome has heavy traffic, but the driving was extremely safe, and they thoughtfully avoided many of Rome's cobblestone potholes. Along the way, they recommended authentic local restaurants and gelato :)

I would highly recommend this Vespa sidecart Tour to anyone wanting to experience Rome from a different perspective. It offers a wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in the local culture rather than simply seeing the sights. The restaurant selected were outstanding, showcasing some fantastic food, and our guide was exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the city. This tour is a definite must-do for anyone visiting Rome and looking for a more authentic and memorable experience.
