Elevated 350 meters above the Mediterranean, Ravello (the City of Music) and Scala (the Coast’s oldest village) offer the most breathtaking vistas in Italy. However, reaching these hilltop gems can be a logistical challenge.
With Rent in Costa, your visit to Ravello and Scala becomes a seamless, stylish, and stress-free adventure. Forget the overcrowded buses and the exorbitant taxi fares; a Vespa is your private key to the Amalfi Coast’s most exclusive balconies.
Visiting Ravello is a “must,” but the journey there often discourages travelers. Here is why savvy visitors choose a scooter:
The public buses from Amalfi to Ravello are notoriously packed, especially during the wedding season and the Ravello Festival. Standing in a crowded bus on steep, winding roads is not the “La Dolce Vita” experience you planned. With your own scooter, you set the schedule.
Parking a car in Ravello is not only expensive (often exceeding €5-7 per hour) but spots are extremely limited. Scooter parking, however, is located strategically near Piazza Vescovado and the entrance to Villa Rufolo, allowing you to be in the heart of the town within seconds of arriving.
Scala sits directly across the valley from Ravello. While taxis charge a premium for this short trip, a scooter allows you to hop between these two historic villages effortlessly. You can enjoy a quiet lunch in Scala’s peaceful piazza and be back at Villa Cimbrone in Ravello for sunset in under 10 minutes.
We understand that luxury is about convenience. That’s why Rent in Costa offers an exclusive scooter delivery service directly to your accommodation.
Whether you are staying at the Belmond Hotel Caruso, Palazzo Avino, or a private villa in the hills of Scala, we bring the Vespa to your doorstep. We handle the logistics, so you can focus on the view.
Having a scooter allows you to visit multiple sites in a single morning without the fatigue of walking steep inclines:
Villa Cimbrone: Famous for the “Infinity Terrace.” Park your scooter at the designated areas and walk through the historic gardens.
Villa Rufolo: The centerpiece of Ravello’s culture and the home of the world-renowned summer concerts.
The Ruins of Sant’Eustachio (Scala): A hidden gem that most tourists miss. With a scooter, the uphill path to these spectacular ruins is a breeze.
San Giovanni del Toro: Explore the quiet, upper residential streets of Ravello where the most beautiful architecture is hidden.
The road to Ravello (the “Via San Giovanni Bosco”) is a series of spectacular hairpin turns. While beautiful, it requires confidence and previous experience.
Important Safety Note: To ensure a safe experience for everyone, we require all riders to have prior experience with scooters or motorcycles. Please review our Safety and Experience Requirements before booking. If you can handle the curves, the rewards are unmatched.
