Ciao Kristy,

Hii I ll be in Rome on on thif Friday morning with my hubby . My ankle is fractured ..so need to rent a scooter pls help …..so can enjoy this beautifull city
Hey Preety,
That’s some bad luck! I would say a scooter is a really good idea and I would try a “scooter tour” so you can leave the driving to someone else. In my list above you’ll find the link in #7 best for you.
Good luck! Bianca

Do you deliver and pickup from major hotels in Rome?
I really love to travel. I think I would rent a electric bike cause it’s slow enough for me to have a nice sight seeing without polluting environment around.
When in Rome you can rent or join a tour with a very professional travel agency.
