Welcome Travelers!

Sicily, Italy - June 13-22, 2026

What is the Volcano Tour?

This tour is part of a broader initiative to bridge American and Italian scooter culture celebrating the scooter lifestyle not just as a means of travel, but as a vehicle for connection. The idea is the result of 2 passionate Vespa lovers, Mauro and Giovanni, coming together wanting to showcase Italy's many hidden gems outside the most common tourist spots. Each itinerary is carefully curated to explore local traditions, cuisine, and people while creating opportunities to meet and ride with passionate Vespa clubs across Italy. A new region will be spotlighted each year, offering participants a deeper cultural immersion and a unique way to experience Italy—from the saddle of a classic scooter.

 

Embark on an unforgettable 10-day ride through the heart of Sicily, designed in collaboration with historic local Vespa Clubs which will be meeting the group along the way. This itinerant adventure begins and ends in Taormina, weaving through iconic landscapes and historic towns like Bronte, Enna, Caltagirone, Modica, Noto, Siracusa, and Catania. Along the way, riders will experience the raw beauty of Mount Etna’s slopes, the baroque splendor of southeast Sicily, and the warm hospitality of local Vespa clubs joining for scenic rides, meet-ups, and shared dinners.

 

Each day is crafted to blend cultural immersion with the joy of riding. Highlights include a boat tour of Isola Bella, pistachio tastings in Bronte, a ceramic workshop in Caltagirone, a hands-on ricotta-making experience near Ragusa, and a chocolate tour in Modica. The tour also features select culinary stops, coastal detours, and charming village visits—all culminating in a coastal ride back to Taormina. With a perfect balance of adventure, tradition, and local connection, this journey captures the spirit of Sicily one winding road at a time.

 

These routes include narrow mountain roads, switchbacks, steeper climbs, and busier traffic zones—often with fast-moving cars and assertive local drivers. You must be able to confidently share the road with multiple forms of transport and respond quickly to changing conditions.Ideal for riders who are agile, alert, and used to adapting to dynamic environments.
