Let's see how many of your questions we are able to answer in one page!

A curated selection of questions that other Vespistis have asked so far.

  • Do I need a motorcyle driver license to ride a Vespa in Italy?
    NO. All Vespa we provide are 125cc which in Italy all they require is a valid car driver license. However, drivers must convert their license into a International Driver Permit (IDP) - which you can easily do over the internet in matter of minutes or a few days.
  • Do Vesping Around Trips Generally Include Multiple-Stops ?
    Generally speaking, we will design the trip to establish a 4-star Hotel as our camp base, one that we go back to after every ride. We designed this trip so that travelers get comfortable and settled in their rooms, get to know their surroundings, and the lovely hotel staff who LOVE vespas and vespisti as much as we do. Please check each trip information as details might change depending on region and event.

    Yes, IF: You rode before a 2-wheel vehicle You love meeting new people You are in for a little of an adventure You love to connect with nature - but still want 4-star treatment No, IF: You like visiting big cities and museums You are looking for the typical tourist attractions you prefer the comfort and safety of a 4-wheel vehicle

    Great question! It obviously depends on the day. Some day we won't go as far as 15 miles. Some others we will rid up to 60 miles. In one day-long outing, we do drive the longest ride logged at around 120 miles. rest assured though, we take plenty of stops, and the roads are lovely to ride and enjoy. Please check each trip information to confirm the exact itinerary.
  • I have dietary restrictions, is that going to be ok?
    Yes, we'll ask about it during the registration process. We can arrange for your specific needs as best as we can, considering that we are traveling to authentic sites in Italy. For example, restrictions to vegan diet might be very hard to implement but we will try our best for you! Every other restrictions should work out fine.
  • Do I have to attend every single activity of the itinerary?
    NO! Even though we designed this experiences with the intent to leave extra padding of free time to participant, some days might feel more physically or mentally taxing than others. Also, we do admit that the weather might not cooperate the entirety of the times, and some travelers might decide to stay safe back at the hotel.
  • What Kind of Vespa Am I Going to Ride?
    Most rides will be 125cc, automatic gears, red color, equipped with a top box (the trunk), and cell=phone holder. Helmet is also provided as part of the kit. Both single or double occupancy have 1 Vespa included and paid for. Some packages will include an optional upgrade to add an additional second Vespa to the Vespa, as well as adding a vintage, manual gear Vespa.
