Fun Vespa Magic
Had such a fun day seeing the Tuscany region and experiencing delicious food with a touch of wine 😊 the Vespa tour with Octavia our guide was perfect. Thankyou so much !
Response from the operator: What a lovely review, Janelle! It sounds like you had a great day exploring the Tuscan countryside by Vespa, with good food and wine to top it off. Ottavio will be very happy to hear that he made the day so enjoyable for you. Thanks for spending the day with us!

Tuscany countryside
Amazing!! Alessandro lead us through amazing countryside!
Response from the operator: So nice to hear you enjoyed exploring the Tuscan countryside with Alessandro, Hailey! There’s so much beauty to discover in Italy, and we’d love to show you even more next time!

Best Vespa Ride
Alex took us on the BEST Vespa ride. We saw the entire countryside and went to the most beautiful winery after. Alex adapted quickly and easily to the impending rainstorm and made sure we still got in a super fun Vespa ride in despite the weather. Would recommend this tour to everyone and everyone!! Totally the highlight of our Florence visit
Response from the operator: It’s so nice to hear that Alessandro handled the weather so well and still made sure you had a great Vespa ride, Reagan! We’re really happy you enjoyed the Tuscan countryside and the winery afterwards. Knowing it was a highlight of your Florence trip means a lot to us. Thanks so much for the recommendation!

Highly Recommended Tour!
We had such a great time! Alex was an amazing guide and made the tour so much fun. He provided great information on the history of the Vespa and all of the towns and vineyards we visited. Alex was a big reason this trip was so much fun. Just an outstanding guide with a great local perspective on things. If you want to enjoy seeing the countryside at a slower pace and really enjoy the views, I can’t recommend this tour enough. We spent the perfect amount of time riding the Vespas and the tour was just the right length. The lunch at the winery was amazing and the wine tasting was great!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words about Alessandro and our Vespa Tour! It’s so nice to hear that the day turned out exactly as we hoped, fun and full of beautiful views. Alessandro will be very happy to know that his local stories and knowledge made such a difference. We’re also glad you enjoyed the winery and tasting. If Tuscany brings you back, maybe next time you can experience the countryside on horseback!

Great way to see Tuscany
Alex was an amazing tour guide, helps you get a hold of the vespas and lots of knowledge about all of the places we went. Beautiful scenery and vespas are very easy to use. Definitely a must do in anywhere in Tuscany.
Response from the operator: It’s great to hear you had such a good time exploring Tuscany by Vespa, Elijah! Alessandro will be happy to know that he helped you feel comfortable on the Vespas and added so much to the day with his local knowledge. Thanks so much for the recommendation, and we hope to see you again!

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
From Florence: Small-Group Tuscany Vespa Tour with Lunch & Wine: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does From Florence: Small-Group Tuscany Vespa Tour with Lunch & Wine cost?
+
Prices start at $142 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does From Florence: Small-Group Tuscany Vespa Tour with Lunch & Wine take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.
Is From Florence: Small-Group Tuscany Vespa Tour with Lunch & Wine worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 153 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule From Florence: Small-Group Tuscany Vespa Tour with Lunch & Wine?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is From Florence: Small-Group Tuscany Vespa Tour with Lunch & Wine suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book From Florence: Small-Group Tuscany Vespa Tour with Lunch & Wine?
+
Around 54 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does From Florence: Small-Group Tuscany Vespa Tour with Lunch & Wine start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Florence?
+
On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici Tales - guided by a STORYTELLER, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class & Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Florence?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Florence?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
