Vespa adventure on Lake Como: Italian vacation goals


If you’re picturing yourself on holiday, full Italian style, and having the time of your life with friends, a Vespa tour on Lake Como might be exactly what makes your dream come true. Starting from the village of Varenna, our local guides will take you along one of the most scenic and overlooked routes on Lake Como, culminating in Perledo, a peaceful hilltop town that rewards visitors with truly breathtaking views.

The 2-hour experience begins in Varenna, with the unmistakable hum of the Vespa guiding you up the gentle curves of the narrow roads. As you rise in altitude, so does the beauty of the landscape: below, the blue waters of Lake Como, framed by lush peaks and multicolored villages. Every turn reveals a new postcard-worthy view and at the top of the route the Belvedere of Perledo awaits you, consisting of one of the most panoramic terraces on Lake Como. From here, the view stretches across the central part of the lake—known as the Golden Triangle, with Bellagio, Menaggio, and Varenna with its castle perfectly visible from above. 

It will be a peaceful moment, far from the tourist crowds, silence broken only by the breeze and the occasional church bell.

To make the experience even more special (and authentically Italian), the Vespa tour includes a stop for a classic aperitivo in a panoramic location. 

After the Vespa ride, this moment of pause lets you relax with a glass of wine or a spritz, tasting local snacks while enjoying the late afternoon light. Unhurried, scenic, and satisfying.

The Vespa tour can be booked with Varenna Holidays (and customized as you wish)!
