Full description
Franciacorta is so much more than what’s in a glass.
Pick up your 125cc Vespa in Iseo and set off on your own, following an itinerary designed to help you discover the most authentic side of Franciacorta.
In half a day, you’ll explore nature reserves, medieval castles and scenic viewpoints overlooking Lake Iseo at your own pace, riding along roads that seem tailor-made for a Vespa!
What we will do
You’ll meet at the selected time in Iseo (BS), where you’ll collect your 125 cc Vespa. After a brief explanation of how the scooter works, you’ll be given an interactive map showing the route and you’ll be ready to set off on your own.
Your first stop will be the Torbiere del Sebino Nature Reserve, which you’ll reach via Timoline. Here, you can enjoy a stroll amongst the reeds, ponds and footbridges, immersed in one of Lombardy’s most precious ecosystems.
You’ll then hop back on your Vespa to reach Passirano Castle, an ancient medieval fortress in the heart of Franciacorta. Its imposing walls and characteristic Ghibelline battlements tell of centuries of history and make this village one of the most fascinating stops on the itinerary.
You’ll continue on to Pilzone, where Big Bench No. 73 awaits you. From here, you can admire a splendid view of Lake Iseo and the Franciacorta hills, stopping for a photo opportunity before setting off again.
You’ll conclude the tour by returning to Iseo, where you can stroll through the historic centre and along the lakeside promenade, enjoying a relaxing finale with views of the water.
The experience will last approximately 4 hours.
