About this tour

Ride through nearly 3,000 years of history on a Rome Vespa self-drive tour, weaving along historic streets and beneath the city’s ancient arches. With a local guide leading the way, discover striking views, intimate squares, and fountains on a route described as known to the “Romani de Roma.”

The tour includes an automatic Vespa for two people, helmets, and civil liability insurance. Pause along the way for a coffee or gelato break, then continue exploring Rome from the seat of a scooter. The experience lasts 3–4 hours and starts at the shop on Via dei Mille 8, near Termini station. Drivers need experience riding two-wheel vehicles and a valid driving license; drivers from outside the EU also need an International Driving Permit. The tour is not recommended for pregnant travelers. Jubilee-related restoration work may affect monuments or lead to route diversions.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 1 review. 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 7.1. Top 48% in Rome means it ranks in the top 48% of tours in Rome by this score.
