YOUR VESPA

Throughout your trip in Sardinia, you’ll have your own 125cc Vespa at your disposal. You’ll receive it the morning after your arrival, and return it on the last evening. The Vespa is yours for the whole trip, even during the evenings.

If you want to receive your Vespa earlier, or want to keep it a bit longer, you can choose the Early Pick-Up and/or the Late Drop-Off. With those options, the Vespa is yours from 2pm on your arrival day and/or you can return it at 2pm on your departure day (€ 50 per option).

Can I drive the Vespa solo?

The prices are calculated with the assumption that the Vespa is shared between 2 people. If you would like to drive solo, there is a supplement of € 130 per single driver.

DRIVING LICENSE

In order to drive our Vespas in Italy, you must have a driving license (B) or a motorbike license (A) and be 18+. The license (AM) is not valid. The passenger sitting in the back does not need to be 18 nor have a driving license. You have a European driving license? That’s perfect!

Your license isn’t for Europe? Then you’ll need to apply for an international driving license.

START-TO-VESPA

Never driven a Vespa or scooter before? Then we strongly recommend you to take the Start-to-Vespa class. On your arrival day, the guide will give you all the information and an initiation to get the hang of Vespa driving and to be able to drive safely in Sardinia in the Italian traffic. After this lesson, you’ll be ready to start your Vespa Trip. This class costs €50 per person.

The designed routes for your trip in Sardinia are uploaded on a GPS, which you can easily attach to the steering wheel of your Vespa. With this GPS (+ €30) you’ll come by the most beautiful roads and arrive at the most stunning stops.

VESPA INSURANCE

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 all-in insurance (€89 per Vespa), where the own risk is €0. If you don’t want this insurance, a deposit of €500 is required, for which you are liable.

A month before your holiday in Sardinia, you’ll receive an email where you can select one of these two options.
