We are in the Langhe, and the tour takes place in the Barolo area.

This tour is designed for frequent stops: photographs, coffee, viewpoints and small towns along the way.
A Vespa lets you cover the distance at a relaxed pace, while enjoying the best part: the stops.

Vespa rental includes one Vespa for every two people.
Tailored quotes are available for groups of eight people or more, or for anyone who would like one Vespa per person.

Depart from Alba at around 10 am (time confirmed in your quote), following a map along approximately 60 km of scenic roads. Search for the Big Benches: you will find six with our directions! 
There is no race: six benches make a wonderful collection. The rest is about enjoying the landscape.

You can add the following to this tour:

  • Dinner, an overnight stay and other experiences for the following day

What is not included:

  • Anything not expressly listed as included

All our tours are organised on request, on your chosen date and for the number of people specified.
After receiving your enquiry, we check availability and send you a detailed quote.
To confirm, simply pay a 30% deposit. The balance is due 15 days before departure.
For bookings close to the departure date, full payment may be required.
We accept bank transfers, credit cards and Satispay.
Your quote always includes a clearly stated expiry date.

SlowDays communicates mainly by email. It is the best way for us to respond clearly, efficiently and promptly to every enquiry.
Email us at claudia@slowdays.it or complete the form on the tour page: we will reply soon. Everything discussed stays in writing, so everyone involved can refer back to it.
If a call becomes necessary, we can arrange it later.
We prefer this approach because it helps us manage our time, quotes and information effectively, providing a more attentive service for everyone.

Tour details are provided after confirmation and payment.
SlowDays is not a third-party booking portal: we organise every package ourselves, choosing the most suitable partners for their style, quality and availability.
Since 2016, we have worked with a network of trusted local partners and welcomed many happy guests. Their reviews tell our story best.

If you have specific preferences, let us know from the start so we can assess the options or suggest similar alternatives.

In bad weather or uncertain conditions, SlowDays will work with you to put a Plan B in place to help you enjoy the day.
Depending on the tour and event, we may postpone, adapt or change the experience, looking for a solution that reflects what you hoped to enjoy.
The exact arrangements may vary according to the event or package chosen.

 Our published prices do not change between high and low season: we keep the same reference rates throughout the year.
However, please bear in mind that in autumn, the busiest season in the Langhe, some properties or services may apply increases that affect our prices. Booking well in advance is always a good idea!  Also, because every quote is tailored to you, there may be small price differences depending on the property or partners available when you confirm. We always aim for the best possible balance of quality, availability and price 🌿

When sending your enquiry, you can ask us to personalise your tour:

  • Your preferred time
  • Add an experience, such as dinner, an aperitivo or an overnight stay, choosing from the many activities on our website and other tours. We will discuss what works best, depending on availability, timing and the day’s itinerary.

Vespa tours
Our Vespa tours let you explore the Langhe independently, with freedom and support along the way. One Vespa is provided for every two people; you can request one per person for a supplement. Follow a GPS route on your smartphone using the dedicated app to guide you between stops. Assistance is available during the tour. Your Vespa comes with a full tank and does not need refuelling before return, courtesy of SlowDays.
