ABOUT THE VESPA TRIP
The Vespa Trip is a trip organized by Travelbase. They are based in Belgium but their trips are also well known by people from all around the globe. Their concept is to organize adventurous but yet unwinding trips and the Vespa Trip fits perfectly in that image. The starting point of the trip is Pisa and from there the Vespa’s will be rented and so, the journey through Tuscany begins. No worries about carrying your luggage, Travelbase will transport all your luggage to the next hotel! The Vespa Trip is all about fun, food and unforgettable moments!
How long is the trip?
The Vespa Trip is 6 days in total, but you will drive the Vespa for 4 days. This may sound a little short but from experience we can tell you this is just enough to enjoy it to the fullest.
Is it a group trip or an individual trip?
One of the best advantages about this trip is that you can actually do it both! You can follow the guides on the Vespa together with other people, or you can just take off by yourself. Everybody sleeps in the same hotel, but nothing is obligatory to do in a group. Do you want to enjoy a get-together? Almost every night, the guides organize a group dinner and if you want to join you can sign up for this in the morning.
What are the stops?
PISA
The trip starts in Pisa where you will have the first evening to enjoy beautiful Pisa.
