Rides in Italy

The rides category in Italy is sorted by vehicle, and each one belongs to its own city. In Venice it is the gondola: a classic half-hour ride costs 49 dollars, a private one 894, and a forty-minute version with the gondolier 176. In Rome it is the Vespa: three hours of self-drive cost 63 dollars, a full day's rental 85, and a ninety-minute sidecar tour with a gelato stop 142.

The bicycle works as the city format. A three-hour loop of Rome taking in the Colosseum and the Trevi Fountain costs 81 dollars; the anti-mafia bike route through Palermo, 49 for three hours. A golf cart runs the Appian Way and the catacombs: three hours, 208 dollars. Rome by night is toured in a vintage Fiat 500: three hours with a driver, 459 dollars.

Then come the one-offs. A horseback ride through the Tuscan hills out of Siena lasts ninety minutes at 88 dollars, a Vespa tour of the Amalfi Coast from Positano six hours at 412, and a private hot-air balloon flight near Rome four hours at 2587 dollars — the priciest entry in the whole Italian catalogue. GetExperience lists 49 programmes in this category, from 49 to 2587 dollars and half an hour to a full day long. Dates and seats are picked in the calendar, with online card payment.
