Italy on two wheels, told by those born here.

We start at six in the afternoon from our delivery point on Via dei Mille. Five-minute briefing, helmet, and we're off. The first stop is a cove you can't reach from land — only eight Vespas in a row and a small white road.

From there, we climb to Capo Falcone. The light changes every five minutes — that's the point. We stop at the right viewpoints, tell you about the 1577 tower still watching Corsica, then descend to La Pelosa as the sun touches the water.

It's not a tour. It's how a Sardinian cousin you met the night before would show you the island.

We close with an aperitivo at the kiosk. White Vermentino wine, taralli, no rush. You leave the Vespa there and we take you back to the hotel. Three hours that last a summer.
