AN UNFORGETTABLE RIDE TO THE SEA
Tuscany is not only known for its rolling hills and breathtaking views, but also for its beautiful seaside spots characterized by sandy beaches and crystal-clear water. With our Vespa tour, we take you to one of the best destinations along the cost, where we’ll stop for a lunch of freshly fried seafood.
Andiamo!
An unforgettable ride to reach the coast
Starting from our office in La Rosa, a fantastic panoramic road leads to the coast and to the village of Vada. We will ride through the wonderful Valdera valley, full of vineyards and olive groves. We will pass the villages of Casanova, Casciana Terme, and Sant'Ermo. From Sant'Ermo we will ride down the valley to reach the coast. This is truly one of the best roads in the area, where we can stop to take wonderful pictures. Once in Vada, we will park our Vespas and take a walk on the beach, and possibly enjoy a swim :). Make sure to bring your swimsuit :).
Seafood based lunch
After a walk along the beach, we will stop for lunch at a local restaurant. The restaurant is located right on the beach, with a nice view of the sea. Lunch consists of mixed fried seafood, French fries, and coffee. A glass of white wine is included, of course (just one :)).
After lunch we will ride back to the office through the village of Castellina Marittima. This road is particularly appreciated in summer because it runs through the woods, offering plenty of shade, perfect during the Tuscan summer.

DURATION & LENGTH OF ROUTE:
This program takes 6 hours, from 10 am to 4 pm. Time for reaching the meeting point not included. The route as described in this activity covers approximately 90 kms.
AVAILABILITY:

LANGUAGE:

DIFFICULTY LEVEL:
Difficult - for experienced drivers only
VESPA RENTAL:
At the beginning of the tour the guide will help any rider to fulfill the documents necessary in order to rent vespa scooters from a local rental company. The scooters rented for this tour are modern vespa scooters with automatic transmission (no manual gear).
INSURANCE:
The insurance on the scooters is a basic civil liability policy as per legal requirements. This policy only covers damages to third parties and does not cover damages to the rider or the passenger, nor damages to the scooter itself. As a consequence, the rental agreement is valid only when filled in with valid credit card details of the rider, which might cover any damage in the event of an accident.
LICENSE REQUIRED:
Riders must have an international driving license and must be over 18 years of age.
EXPERIENCE ON SCOOTERS IS REQUIRED - THIS TOUR IS NOT FOR BEGINNERS:
Before booking this tour it is essential for you to understand that the tour is addressed to people who have previous experience in riding a scooter, a vespa or a motorbike. If you never rode a scooter it is impossible for you to be able to ride it along the routes that the guide selects. Every tour starts with a 15-20 minute practice that is necessary for the rider to get confident with the scooter, especially in order to understand how brakes and accelerator work. The time for the practice is absolutely not enough to learn how to ride a scooter, for which people might need long hours or even days. So we need to make sure that you are already familiar with riding a 2 wheel vehicle, and the tour will not be your first occasion to ride a scooter. This is a necessary prerequisite for safety reasons and for guaranteeing a pleasant tour to you and the other participants in your party.
If you are not able to ride the scooter properly on the day of the tour, the guide can refuse to give the tour and you are not entitled to a refund.
CHILD FRIENDLY:
Not ideal for children. Children under 10 years are not allowed on vespas.
