Traveling in a vintage Fiat 500 is a unique experience! You will always remember it, thanks to the details, the smells and the views you will bring back. Memories cannot exist without real personal experiences and our 500 Vintage Tour has originated from this philosophy.
Come with us and spend two hours of real fun! First, we will be introduced to the 500 with a short drive. We wll then stop for an Italian breakfast of cappuccino and croissant. Our drive into the TUSCAN HILLS starts through the most beautiful and hidden roads of the Tuscan countryside. We will drive through olive groves, vineyards, medieval castles, villa estates, and gorgeous panoramic views of Florence.
The debut on the market of the 500 is from 1957. The first set-up was basic and the car could only accommodate 2 people and was not an immediate success. Fiat, therefore, changed strategy and presented two new modified versions that had more accessories and were able to accommodate 4 people thanks to a "real" and homologated rear seat.
The Fiat 500 is a car that has accompanied the history of Italy and the Italians for many decades, becoming almost a symbol. At the beginning it was the utility car of families, of those nuclei that could afford a car in an Italy recovering after the Second World War.
Over time it has become the status symbol of an increasingly popular machine, to be used to show oneself, until it becomes almost a youthful and trendy icon.
Driving a vintage Fiat 500 will be an adventure you’ll never forget, in perfect security and assistance. Our vintage FIAT 500 has been carefully renovated, while preserving the original features.
