You Won’t Regret This Tour - If you’re on the fence booking— DO IT. This tour is such an highlight, you will not regret it. The Vespas were easy to ride, even with two people. Our guide Alessandro was amazing. He was sweet, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. I appreciated his passion and love for the Vespa engineering itself. You can tell he really loves what he does. The day was filled with laughter, sunshine, good food and amazing wine. Thank you Italy on a Budget Tours!!

Vespa tour with lunch in Chianti - We had a wonderful vespa tour with our guide Alessandro. After a quick safety instruction and test if we could handle the vespa, we started our tour. We enjoyed riding through the hilly Tuscany landscape with some informative stops from Alessandro. Our lunch stop and whine tasting were great. We can highly recommend this tour.

Disappointed Experience - Do Yourself a Favor and Book with Someone Else I usually don’t leave reviews, but I felt obligated to speak up so others don’t fall into the same trap. I went on a tour with this agency recently, and it was honestly one of the most disappointing travel experiences I’ve ever had. From the start, things were off. The itinerary we were given turned out to be more of a suggestion than an actual plan. Most of the activities were either drastically changed or didn’t happen at all. We were constantly left wondering what was going on, with little to no communication from the organizers. The walking was excessive and completely unplanned. We spent hours walking around with no clear direction, and there were no breaks or proper arrangements to make us feel welcomed or even looked after. What really pushed me to write this is how they handled cancellations and refunds. They kept promising that certain things would be reimbursed or adjusted—but surprise, none of that ever happened. Once you're home and out of reach, they go silent. The accommodations were not what was advertised either. The places were sketchy, dirty, and felt like they were chosen just to cut costs. Nothing like what they marketed. I’m not usually one to call out companies publicly, but this felt less like poor planning and more like intentional deception. I’d strongly recommend looking elsewhere if you want your time, money, and energy to be respected.
