Full description
And as the famous song says, how wonderful it is to ride a Vespa through the hills of Bologna!
Follow a 25 km itinerary to discover the main attractions of the area: the San Michele in Bosco Complex, the Sabbuino Sh rine and the Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca. All in the company of a tour guide who will take you on a two-wheeled discovery of the surroundings of Bologna.
A 2-hour experience that will have you singing all the way home!
What we will do
I will be waiting for you 30 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Bologna (BO). I will welcome you in the company of my 125 cc Vespas , which will accompany you on this motorised adventure through the hills of Bologna!
Departure is scheduled after 30 minutes. We will ascend towards the San Michele in Bosco Complex, Bologna's belvedere, from which you will enjoy a breathtaking view of the city. We will then head towards the Sacrario di Sabbuino, 400 metres above sea level, a monument erected in memory of the Nazi-Fascist massacre of the same name.
The last stop of our Vespa excursion in the hills will be the famous Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca on Colle della Guardia. The sanctuary is connected to Bologna by the longest portico in the world: 4 km for 600 arches!
We will return to the starting point after covering 25 km, for a total duration of 2 hours.
