A must-do gorgeous experience.

Stefanie_H, Sep 2023

What an incredible day! Book this tour! We got to see the beautiful Tuscan countryside, and we stopped at a winery for a “light” (i.e. incredibly filling) lunch and tasted 10 wines! Vincenzo was an amazing guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable and great to be around. If you aren’t sure about you Vespa skills you can also book a tuk tuk and be driven around. The other couple on our tour did that, and it seemed fun as well. I rode on the back of my husband’s Vespa and it was an awesome day. We were in awe of the gorgeous scenery and learned so much about wine too. Thank you! A must-do!

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Thank you for your wonderful review! It sounds like your experience was not only enjoyable but also educational, and we're glad that Vincenzo's knowledge added to your day. We appreciate your high recommendation, we look forward to welcoming you back on another must-do tour in the future.

Vincente is Fantastico!

Sean_C, Nov 2022

Vincente was fantastic as a tour guide. The Vespa tour was fun and the views were amazing. The vineyard/restaurant we visited was great as well. We ordered four bottles to be shipped to our home! Good luck in Med school Vincente!!

Enjoyable ride!

PeterJohn_H, Jul 2022

Enjoyed our vespa ride in the chianti countryside. I do wish there were more stops within san gimignano and for summer they should have it earlier in the morning or later in the afternoon. It was so hot! Viator should keep track of time bec we had to wait almost 1 hour for bus to pick us up after.

The worst experience...

Alicia_M, Jun 2022

The worst experience ever—Being told after we fell off the Vespas because my husband hit a ditch (and I was right behind him) that we were responsible for the costs of the repairs and that the tour company had no insurance. This was never disclosed. Moreover, it is unreasonable. Even though they claimed they had previously sent us liability forms, we only received them when we arrived at the tour, at which time, there was no opportunity to review anything.

Vespas and San Gimignano

Jaime_F, May 2022

We had such an amazing day with Emma, our guide this day trip was worth every penny. Is there anything better than traveling through the rolling hills of Tuscany near San Gimignano and ending with a fantastic and picturesque lunch and wine tasting? Emma was helpful and so knowledgeable about the area. We cannot recommend this enough.
