Tuscan Vespa Experience - What an experience. Dejan took us on a journey of a lifetime …. a vespa ride around the vineyards of Tuscany . His knowledge of the local area was appreciated, he kept us safe and he entertained us all day. If you are looking for a Vespa tour … this is the one ! I would recommend Tuscan cycle tour …. It was an unbelievable experience.

Vespa, Wine & Laughs - The Vespa tour through the Tuscany hills was a journey filled with laughter, learning, and leisure. Thanks to our remarkable guide, who made safety and enjoyment his top priorities, we were able to fully embrace the beauty and charm of Tuscany from the seat of a Vespa. It was an experience that will undoubtedly be cherished for years to come…don’t be afraid to try this experience! I cannot wait for our wine and EVOO to arrive! Grazie!

Everyone’s Lizzie McGuire dreams come true - It was truly so fun!! We drove up with Alexa who was so kind and after meeting the whole team we felt so comfortable and ready to go! They are super great at making sure you are ready or offer for you to ride with them which is just as great of a choice because you get to see the scenery while riding! 10/10 would recommend to any and everyone.

Bucket List fun! - A definite "must do" if coming to Florence. Our tour did not include lunch but did have wine tasting/snacks and winery tour. The winery was really quaint,..so much so that we purchased wine and olive oil and shipped it home. The ride was super fun and there is a stop for some great pictures too.
For those who have never ridden a vespa or even a moped, it is not as simple as it seems. You have chance to practice and the tour leader will determine if you are proficient enough to handle your own vespa. If not, those who don't pas the practice test will be on the back of another driver of the company. A long enough rode to enjoy the countryside and ending at the winery was perfect. The meeting place is a bit difficult to find so taking a taxi to it is best. On the way back after the winery, the driver stops at a lookout point with incredible views of Florence. Picture opportunity! I would definitely do it again as it was worth it.

Must do in Florence! - Such an amazing experience - highly recommended! Our guide Luca was outstanding! Very friendly and informative. The whole outing was even better than expected. The meeting place was close walking distance from the metro station, followed by a drive by van up to the hills of Tuscany. You arrive at a gorgeous winery in the hills where you are given a brief history of the location, followed by an overview of the Vespa and quick test ride to ensure you are comfortable and confident before hitting the road. The Vespa itself is really easy to operate and the drive was just the right distance. Luca had us stop at various spots throughout the ride to take some scenic pictures. Not only was he a great guide, but also an amazing photographer. The conclusion of the ride ended with a delicious lunch and wine tasting in a private dining area, which was equally as amazing. Overall this was a great experience and highly, highly recommended! 5-stars.

DO IT! You will NOT be sorry about this one!! An absolutely incredible experience that everyone loved! - Okay, in short this was probably the BEST experience of the entire trip. All 6 of us recommend whole heartedly. Go on this tour!!!
TLDR: The food, the views, the tour, the service, the people - all fantastic and top notch. Learned about wine, learned how to ride safely and tested everyone before going out, and ate a delicious lunch at the most beautiful winery!!!
FULL REVIEW: Alright, we were traveling as an adult family which can always be challenging when it comes to planning things to do. We had two 60 year olds, 2 in their 30s and 2 in their 20s and EVERYONE loved this experience!!
First, let me say that Dejan (the owner and operator) is FANTASTIC. We are all completely in love with him. He's basically a stand up comedian and SO entertaining but a very serious and successful business owner that we trusted implicitly.
So, we get up in the morning and walk over to the meeting spot which was so easy to find because there was a huge beautiful mural painted on the front of the building. Dejan checked us all in and gave us a quick overview of the day, and then we filed into the Mercedes Van (air conditioned and all forward facing seats) to ride over to the winery. The drive from downtown Firenze to the winery was about an hour and we were so happy to chill in the van with Dejan and listen to his HILARIOUS commentary. There was another couple on the tour with us and we all ended up becoming friends! We still keep in touch on social media ;)
When we arrived at the winery, the views were breathtaking. Quintessential Tuscan hills surrounding the historic winery. The tour began with us taking a walk around the grounds and learning from the one of the winery owners about the property and history and wine making process. We even got to see the underground storage which was SO cool.
Then Dejan got us all fitted with high quality helmets and took us to a small stretch of trail to learn and practice on the vespas. He did a thorough job explaining how to ride them and explaining the gas, steering, etc.
Personally I wasn't super comfortable driving so I ended up riding on the back of my husband's vespa. Ironically, my parents did the same thing - my dad drove and my mom rode on the back. The other couple with us did the same as well. Dejan did offer the opportunity for anyone to ride on the back of his vespa if needed.
Then after a few practice rounds, we were off!! We were in town during the beginning of September so it was HOT. Like 90+ degrees Fahrenheit every single day so this tour was the PERFECT way to cool off. The breeze while we were driving on the vespas was what we all needed!
Half way through the tour, we stopped for a photo op which was hilarious as well. Dejan became a photographer extraordinaire and took all of the pics we didn't even know we needed. He was hilarious, made us all laugh and that resulted in really authentic pictures.
Then we hopped back on the vespas, continued through the hills and eventually made it back to the winery. At one point, the couple in front of us sort of swerved and in an abundance of caution and safety, Dejan had us all pull over and split them up. The wife finished the tour on the back of Dejan's vespa which allowed the husband to finish the tour safely as well. We really appreciated his attention to detail!
Once we got back to the winery we were served wine from the winery, olive oil & bread (the olive oil is also produced on site! we bought and shipped tons of it home WOW so good) and then a beautiful pasta.
When all was said an done we were so sad to have to leave. Dejan drove us back and dropped us back in Firenze in perfect time to take a quick nap at the hotel and take our time getting ready for evening activities and dinner.
If you've made it this far, do not book with anyone else. This is the one you want, I guarantee it. You will not be sorry!!!

Great tour! - We had a fantastic time with Luca as our guide for our Vespa tour and wine tasting today. He was absolutely wonderful and personable and it made our experience that much more fun. Driving the Vespas took a second to get the hang of but then was very manageable with Luca explaining how he would warn us of upcoming turns and when to slow down. Afterwards we were able to taste multiple bottles (and by taste I do mean drink a bottle of several types) and had a full meal which was wonderful in presentation and flavor. Couldn’t have asked for more from this tour and absolutely would recommend!

Amazing experience - This tour was amazing! The pickup point was easy to find. The drive to the countryside was a great way to see so much of Tuscany, outside of Florence. I can't lie, the vespa "test" created a little bit of nerves, but as soon as we were out on the road, the ride was EASY....and absolutely beautiful. The lunch and wine tasting were both great, along with the tour of the residence. This is an absolute must do for anyone traveling to Florence/Tuscany.
Alexa is the best!
