You are automatically covered for damage caused to third parties in the event of an accident with your Vespa. However, any damage you might have suffered yourself, does not fall under this insurance. This is usually covered by your own travel or medical insurance. Don’t have this? Then you can book a travel insurance through Travelbase. Feel free to ask!
Damage to your own Vespa is insured if you choose the omnium damage insurance.
A helmet and closed shoes (so no flip-flops or sandals) are always mandatory when riding a Vespa on our Vespa trips.
The rest is up to you: long pants, shorts, t-shirt, dress, a top… whatever you prefer. We recommend to also check the weather forecast to see if you’ll need a raincoat or poncho. You can store it under your seat and take it out when needed.
As we offer a fully organised trip, it is not possible to adjust the duration or itinerary. However, you are free to extend your trip independently by spending a few extra days on site afterwards, for example, or continuing your journey to another country.
Yes! It’s possible, but there is a supplement of €130 per single driver, because the Vespa Trip prices are calculated with the assumption that the Vespa is shared between 2 people.
No, dinner isn't included during your stay. The guides will propose some nice restaurants daily. They will also ask if you want to join them for dinner with the other Vespa trippers. You can join them or go on your own.
You are automatically insured for damage to third parties with your Vespa.
For damage to your own Vespa you have two choices. Either you choose the omnium insurance (€ 89 per Vespa in Amalfi, Puglia, Chianti, Veneto and Sardinia, €99 per Vespa in Tuscany), where the own risk is € 0.
If you don’t want this insurance, a deposit of € 500 is required for which you are liable.
In Amalfi, Puglia, Chianti, Veneto and Sardinia you'll receive your Vespa the morning after your arrival day and you bring it back on the last driving day in the evening.
If you want to receive the keys of the Vespa a bit earlier, or want to keep it a bit longer, you can choose for the ‘Early Pick-Up’ and/or ‘Late Drop-Off’. So the Vespa is yours from 2pm on your arrival day and/or you can return it at 2pm on your departure day. Per option chosen you pay a supplement of €50 per Vespa.
In Tuscany you have to pick up your Vespa at the Vespa rental on the morning of your first driving day and you bring it back in the evening of the last driving day. Unfortunately it is not possible to rent the Vespa earlier or keep it longer.
Our Vespas are 125cc in Tuscany, Amalfi, Puglia and Sardinia. To be able to drive them in Italy, you need a car driving license (B) or a motorbike driving license (A). The AM license is not sufficient.
You must have an European driving license. If you don’t have one, you are obliged to have an international driving license, which you can apply for in your country.
Residents of the UK do not need a European driver’s license. Their driver’s license is valid for driving our Vespas in Italy.
The choice is yours! You get a digital road book in the app with the stops and interesting facts listed. If you prefer to ride solo, you can book the GPS in which all routes are loaded. This way you’ll easily pass the most beautiful tracks and most interesting stops.
Do you prefer to follow the guide? Great! Follow the group and let them lead you along the routes while you enjoy the views along the way even more.
If you’ve never driven a Vespa or scooter before or if you are very inexperienced/unsure, we strongly recommend to book the Start-to-Vespa lesson.
Especially in Amalfi and Veneto, as the roads there are more challenging than in the other destinations.
On your arrival day you’ll get an initiation of Vespa driving from the guide and you will make a test ride together. So you’ll be ready to start your Vespa trip the next day! This lesson costs € 50 per person and you can keep the Vespa afterwards.
If you want to guide our groups in Italy, you can send us an email on info@thevespatrip.com
Our guides can usually assist you in English, Dutch, German and French. We try to have a multilingual duo at each destination, so you can communicate with them in different languages.
The guides are on standby 24/7 to answer your questions and assist you. They’ll drive the routes with those who want to ride as a group. One week before your trip, you’ll be added to a chat in the app, where you can stay in touch with them.
This trip is perfect for everyone that love the beauty of Italy and adventure. The average age of The Vespa Tripper in 2026 was 44 years, of which the majority were in their mid-twenties and mid-fifties. All Vespa Trippers, young or old, share the same love for Vespa riding and La Dolce Vita.
During the last edition, 34 nationalities were represented on our trips, with the majority of participants coming from Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and France.
Yes, children are welcome to join The Vespa Trip. Although this trip is not specifically aimed at children, a few children join us every year.
It should be taken into account that the trip is not specifically organised for children/families, and that the guides on site unfortunately do not have the time to deal with them in their schedule.
During the day you can just ride with the group, it’s easy and fun! In the evening, the guides always offer to go out for a meal and a drink with the group. Here, of course, you choose whether you want to join them or not.
Also remember that the distances can be quite long, that children will be sitting in the back all the time and that not all Vespa’s are equipped with an upper backrest/trunk to lean against.
Most important they need to be at least 1m25 to be able to reach the supports of the Vespa. Otherwise they cannot join the trip!
We're sorry, dogs are not allowed on The Vespa Trip due to the strict measures in the hotels. Sadly you will need your loyal friend at home.
