A Private Vespa* or E-Buggy Ride Through Rome’s Most Beautiful Squares & Fountains.
Discover the charm of Rome on a fully private tour, exploring its most iconic piazzas and fountains with your dedicated English-speaking guide. No shared groups, no rushing — just you, your Vespa or e-buggy and a tailor-made journey through the Eternal City.
Starting and ending at Borgo Pio, you’ll ride alongside your private guide through the masterpieces that define Rome’s skyline and spirit. From the elegance of Piazza Navona and Bernini’s dramatic Fountain of the Four Rivers, to the lively pulse of Campo de’ Fiori and the refined grace of Piazza Farnese, each stop reveals stories shaped by artists, popes, and everyday Romans.
Before reaching the Pantheon, you’ll make a stop at the charming Fontana delle Tartarughe, a Renaissance gem celebrated for its delicate figures and playful elegance. You’ll then pause by the Pantheon’s fountain, admire the poetic beauty of the Barcaccia in Piazza di Spagna, and feel the magic of the Trevi Fountain, where myths of love and luck still shimmer in the water.
Your private ride continues through Piazza Venezia and the monumental Campidoglio, designed by Michelangelo, before reaching the grand finale in Piazza del Popolo, framed by fountains, legends, and centuries of history.
A journey through water, art, and timeless stories — made unforgettable by the exclusivity of a private tour crafted entirely around you.
