About this tour
See Rome from the back of a Vespa, with a local driver guiding you through the city’s remarkable open-air landscape. This 150-minute Rome Vespa Highlights Tour pairs the freedom of a scooter ride with stories, history, and local anecdotes along the way.
Settle in as your driver takes you around Rome, revealing celebrated sights and places that can be harder to reach on your own. Central hotel pickup is included, or meet near Largo Argentina, a short walk from Piazza Venezia, the Pantheon, Campo de' Fiori, and Piazza Navona. The experience is designed for passengers; it is not a self-drive tour.
A Vespa ride offers a lively way to take in the city while your guide shares the context behind its streets and landmarks. If you are an experienced motorcycle driver and want to drive yourself, contact the provider separately about rental requirements and fees. Choose the Rome Vespa Highlights Tour for a memorable, locally guided view of the Eternal City.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 44 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.6. Top 7% in Rome means it ranks in the top 7% of tours in Rome by this score.
