How to ride a Vespa like an Italian on the Amalfi Coast Italy
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
We continued our Italian journey to Sorrento where I always wanted to rent a vespa and cruise the Amalfi coast. We road through Positano, it was one of the best experience ever, I highly recommend it if you're confident on two wheels. We stayed in a beautiful B&B with the best view in Sorrento.

Awesome panoramic view indeed. I lived in Amalfi coast for 2 years . I have been to Sorrento many times but I have never stayed nor dined at the areas you've been too. I seldom witnessed the rainy season too..I worked in Positano and Ravello before. The traffic along the Amalfi coast is madness indeed plus on a winding road can be horrible at times

I was there over 20 years ago.... did all the almafi coast and home base was Positano.... there were not the crowds you encountered..... My ex was 6'4" so you can imagine the car we rent from Rome to Positano was not small. and I drove as he could not drive standard.... I had no issues on those curves... great vid ... thank you

Really lurve your videos, Joel! Greetings from Norway, by the way! I was in Sorrento myself a few years back. Also sitting enjoying my drink on the Piazza Tasso (named after one of Italy’s great Renaissance poets), when torrential rainstorm of weapons grade magnitude hit us. At that moment it would have been nice to have a B&B room with a view like yours to retreat to :) Anyway, like you I suppose, I left piece of my heart in that part of Italy ... thank you so much for triggering beautiful memories!

Check the laws with international driving licences. For smaller scooters you don't need motorcycle license but bigger ones you do. Sorrento is a great place to stay, very central but also very busy. Keep a GPS with you as you will get lost. Have a great time! Wish it was me again.
Gorgeous! 🌺

I'm used to riding a motorbike so a scooter was no issue, but if you're not used to it, I would suggest to catch a taxi or bus, do not drive to Positano if you can avoid it.
Yeah very nice mate, fabulous. I’ll be in Atrani for a couple of weeks in Sep, can you remember the name of that restaurant you stopped at for lunch in Amalfi? Looked good. Frecciarossa trains rock 🚆

Amazing! As a scooter enthusiast, I have always dreamed of renting a Vespa and traveling the Amalfi Coast. This inspires me even more. I wonder if I might ask a couple of questions: What month did you visit Sorrento? What size was the scooter? 125? 150? Any Vespa-renting tips? Thank you so much! Carson

I went in June which was perfect weather and less crowded. July August is hotter with more crowds but still great fun on a Scooter, I've done it twice. September, October could be good too. For two people, I went the larger capacity, can't remember so probably the 150 as I have a motorcycle licence. I've never had issues renting one, always take plenty of photos first, in case of chips etc and get insurance. Be prepared to pay for parking in busy places. If you can find a phone holder for navigating, that's always a good idea as you will get lost. Enjoy it like I did!
