About this tour
Ride a vintage Vespa through the rolling hills south of Sorrento, visiting hilltop villages and stopping at viewpoints overlooking the Bay of Naples and Capri. This four-hour tour pairs the thrill of two-wheeled exploring with local stops—a pastry break at a family-run bakery and sweeping vistas from Monte San Costanzo. Your English-speaking guide handles navigation while you soak in the winding roads and quiet countryside that locals prefer over the crowded coast.
Highlights
- Pilot your own 125cc Vespa through mountain switchbacks
- Sunrise views across Naples bay from San Costanzo peak
- Bite into warm sfogliatella at a village bakery
- Thread past stone farmhouses and lemon groves
- Ride through S. Agata sui due Golfi village lanes
- Fuel included; just bring confidence on the bike
What to expect
You'll collect your helmet and Vespa in central Sorrento, then your guide leads a small group into the hinterland on quiet mountain roads. Expect curves, but nothing technical—pace is leisurely, with photo stops built in. The air cools as you climb; villages appear suddenly around bends. At Colli di Fontanelle, you'll stretch legs and eat a still-warm pastry. The ride back descends toward the coast, views expanding with each hairpin. Total saddle time is roughly two hours; the rest is stops, chat, and standing still to admire the panorama.
Good to know
Arrive in comfortable clothes and closed shoes; the seat can be firm over four hours. Not suitable if you have spinal issues or are pregnant. Basic bike confidence helps, though speeds stay low. Helmets mandatory. Petrol is covered; water bottle provided. Nearby bus stops offer an alternative if Vespa riding feels daunting.
