Wear a certified helmet
Helmets are usually provided but insist on a certified fit and bring a beanie or thin liner for hygiene and comfort.
Time your ride
Book early morning or late afternoon to avoid heat and peak traffic; summer midday can add dust and slow stops.
Pack light and secure valuables
Use a small crossbody or zipped daypack — cobbled streets and scooter balance make loose bags awkward.
Know license rules
Confirm with the operator whether you need a motorcycle license to ride or if you’ll be a passenger with a driver.
Certified helmet
Protects your head and is often required by law; operators usually supply one but personal fit is better.
Closed-toe shoes
Stable footwear helps when mounting and dismounting and on cobbled streets.
Sunglasses and sunscreen
Reduces glare and protects skin during bright, exposed stretches of the route.
