Full description
It's a world made for two: like the saddle of a Vespa, but also like the number of lakes on this tour!
We are talking about Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta, definitely among the most romantic places in Piedmont and the perfect destination if you want to spend a day in the company of your sweetheart. Departing from the shores of Stresa, you will travel on a Vespa to the spectacular village of Orta San Giulio and enjoy an included lunch with a lake view.
The tour will then continue along a pre-assigned route, but you can stop wherever you like for a stop-off or a souvenir photo. The only rule? Return to base by 19:00!
What we will do
The appointment is at 09:00 at the meeting point in Stresa (VB), the starting point of your two-wheeled adventure! You will be welcomed by your hirer, ready to hand over the Vespa reserved for you and a digital map with a pre-assigned itinerary to easily reach the tour stops.
You will set off from the shores of Lake Maggiore, driving along roads dotted with historic villas, lush gardens and spectacular views of the Borromean Islands. The first stop will be Levo, a historic hilltop village perfect for a photo stop between lake and mountains.
After that, the itinerary will continue to Lake Orta, more precisely to Orta San Giulio, considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. Amidst its cobbled streets and medieval atmosphere, you will enjoy a lakeside lunch at the Filo e Fieno restaurant, overlooking the Island of San Giulio. Lunch will consist of an appetiser, a first or second course of your choice, a bottle of local wine, water and coffee.
After your meal, you can set off again towards Crabbia, a small village nestled between the lake and the hills. The last unmissable stop on the tour will be Sovazza, where you can savour the quiet bucolic landscapes of the Piedmont countryside.
You will finally return to Stresa, where you will have to return your Vespa at the meeting point by 19:00. The rental will last a maximum of 10 hours.
