It is not Rome<\/strong>, but as it were its little sister, the emperor Caesar Augustus<\/strong> also fell in love with it. The Roman Tarragona<\/strong>, discovered on two wheels, acquires a very special charm. For years, it has been common to travel round the ancient capital city of the Roman Empire or the Etruscan area on a Vespa<\/strong>. Now, you can also hire one in Tarragona<\/strong> in order to live and discover our city from a different point of view, thanks to the guys of Tarraco Vespa Tours<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n With the Amphitheatre<\/strong> on our feet as the starting point, this route designed to follow the steps of the Roman history takes us down the old Via Augusta<\/strong>, right up to the beach. There, we are then joined by the intense blue of the Mediterranean Sea<\/strong>, a new element on a journey that will take us to Arc de Bar\u00e0<\/strong>, a turning point that will drive us back to Tarragona<\/strong>, a trip that includes a short stop by the Scipio’s Tower<\/strong>. <\/p>\n The Cathedral<\/strong> dominates the highest spot in the city, something we can admire while driving back along the Via Augusta<\/strong>. On our Vespa<\/strong>\u2019s, we go round the ancient Roman Walls<\/strong>, which preludes our entry to the interior of the enclosure through Portal de Sant Antoni<\/strong>. Despite the fact that the Part Alta<\/strong> has some restrictions on the use of motor vehicles, we find it very convenient to be able to park our Vespa<\/strong>\u2019s and stop at Pla\u00e7a del F\u00f2rum<\/strong>, del Rei<\/strong> or de la Font<\/strong>\u2026 for a proper and traditional vermut<\/em>. Of course, no visit round the city is considered to be complete without a vermut<\/em>, a tradition that involves everyone in Tarragona<\/strong>.<\/p>\n As we feel more and more hungry, we can either enter any of the restaurants in Part Alta<\/strong> or go back our Vespa<\/strong>\u2019s and head towards the traditional fishing neighbourhood, El Serrallo<\/strong>. This is, undoubtedly, one of the best options for those willing to enjoy high-quality Mediterranean sea food in Tarragona<\/strong>, thanks to a port that gets fresh fish every day. <\/p>\n The excellent weather in Tarragona allows users to enjoy a similar experience during almost the entire year, which includes short trips to El Priorat<\/strong> or both Alt Camp<\/strong> and Conca de Barber\u00e0<\/strong> regions, in order to find out more about the local architecture, wine culture and inland gastronomy.<\/p>\n Tarraco Vespa Tours<\/strong> offers a 1-day pack on a Vespa<\/strong> for 37\u20ac. So far, it is a great success among tourists \u2013coming from Deutschland, the States, Germany and Finland, among others\u2013 but C\u00e8sar Alcalde<\/strong>, the company\u2019s manager, is convinced that, little by little, new users will love the idea of riding round Tarragona<\/strong> on a Vespa<\/strong>, a true symbol of Mediterranean mobility.<\/p>\n Tarragona Vespa Tours<\/strong> 1-day renting of a Vespa (10am – 8pm): 37\u20ac The price includes: helmet, technical explanation, basic insurance and medical assistance.![\"IMG_9422\"](\"https:\/\/www.tarragonaexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/IMG_9422.jpg\")
