About this activity

Explore Rome's most iconic landmarks from a vintage Vespa sidecar as the city glows under night lights, guided by a local driver who shares insider stories and history. This three-hour journey combines the romance of vintage Italian travel with seamless access to illuminated monuments, bypassing daytime crowds.

Experience the magic of Rome at night on a guided Vespa Sidecar tour, designed to discover the city under the lights in comfort and style. Sitting in a classic sidecar, you'll glide through historic illuminated streets as the driver shares local curiosities.

The itinerary includes guided stops and panoramic passages, covering Rome's most famous monuments. From Piazza del Popolo passing through Castel Sant'Angelo, you will reach St. Peter's Square and climb the Janiculum for the night view from the Fontanone dell'Acqua Paola.

The journey continues beyond the Mouth of Truth and the Circus Maximus, with visits to the illuminated Colosseum and the Arch of Constantine. Continue to Piazza Venezia with the Altar of the Fatherland, the famous Trevi Fountain and Piazza Navona, ending with panoramic views from the Pincio on the steps of Trinità dei Monti.
