About this tour
See Rome from the seat of a Vespa sidecar, with a professional driver guiding you through the city’s storied streets. This 3-hour Rome Vespa Sidecar Tour with Pickup passes landmarks including Piazza Venezia, the Colosseum, the Baths of Caracalla, and the Pyramid of Cestius.
Continue up Aventine Hill to the peaceful Orange Tree Garden, explore lively Trastevere, and finish with sweeping views from Janiculum Hill. On the shared sidecar ride, one guest sits behind the driver while another rides in the sidecar; you’ll swap places at each stop so both can enjoy the views. Solo guests and odd-numbered groups are accommodated on a single Vespa without a sidecar. Coffee, gelato, a driver-guide, and helmet use are included. The 9:30 PM tour lasts 2 hours, and ponchos are provided if it rains.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.93 from 231 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 6% in Rome means it ranks in the top 6% of tours in Rome by this score.
