⭐ Unforgettable Vespa experience

5.00What a great experience with Corfu Vespa Tour! We did the “Above & Beyond Paleokastritsa” tour and this was without a doubt one of the highlights of our holiday in Corfu. Everything was perfectly arranged from the beginning very friendly & professional explanations received. Riding the Vespa through the beautiful mountain villages, past breathtaking views and hidden spots of Corfu was truly unforgettable. Paleokastritsa itself was of course beautiful, but it was precisely the locations “beyond” the tourist spots that made this tour so special. We came to places you would never go otherwise. The Vespa was in top condition. You really notice that the team is passionate about what they do and wants to make sure everyone has a fantastic day. An absolute must for anyone who wants to discover Corfu in a unique and fun way. We would do this again immediately! ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Service +++.

5.00The experience was way beyond our expectations: First the personalized service was perfect with recommandations and a good briefing on what to do and see. The even have tours already built on Google map with everything you need to hold and charge your phone on the scooter. Speaking of the scooter, it was in an excellent condition and worked perfectly. We rented the classic Vespa 125cc which is enough to cruise around but with two on the scooter you may need a little bit more power going up the hills. We were on a cruise and extended our experience to the limit and Katerina offered us to go back to the cruise terminal with the scooter and made the road with us just to make sure we make it on time to our boat. Make sure you have the proper driving license and spare sometime at the end for refilling the tank, it may take some time to find a gas station when you are downtown.

5.00Very nice company with knowledgeable people, high quality motor scooters and a good explanation! Beautiful experience to see the island. Highly recommended. The route is challenging on some parts, experience is a requirement. You pass hairpin bends, narrow roads and poor road surfaces.
Wonderful Two-Wheeled Adventure

5.00What a great time with Niko today on our trip to Palaiokastritsa. There's no better way to see a new place than on two wheels, led by a local who knows it like the back of his hand, on the winding roads less travelled. We hiked to a mountaintop fort with spectacular views below, stopped for pictures along the way and grabbed coffee and a snack at a beautiful cliff side cafe where we got to know our friendly and interesting host. It was the rainy season with showers in the forecast, but we chose to take our chances. Glad we did, as our hosts managed to divert the forces of nature for our benefit. Only regret is we did not spend an extra couple days on this wonderful piece of paradise. Thanks again to Katerina and Niko and hope to see you again in the future...
Exceptional Customer Service and Incredible Vespa Tour!

5.00I had an amazing experience with Vespa tour and rental ! From start to finish, the customer service was exceptional. The team was friendly, professional, and made the whole process seamless. They ensured I felt comfortable with the Vespa before starting the tour, providing clear instructions and all the necessary gear . The island tour was absolutely stunning, and the detailed map they provided made it so easy to navigate. It included all the best spots to visit, from hidden beaches to scenic viewpoints that I would never have found on my own. They even gave me great local tips on where to stop for lunch and take the best photos. The entire experience felt personalized and thoughtful. I couldn't have asked for a better way to explore the island, and the Vespa made it even more fun. I highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable way to see the island. The customer service truly makes it stand out!
Vespa fun!

5.00My wife and I had a wonderful tour of Corfu with our host Nico. The views were spectacular with Nico providing great background and history to what we were seeing. The Vespa was a classic and comfortable ride along curving mountain roads and this experience was the highlight of our visit to Corfu.
