The Beauties of Bergamo on Three Wheels: Bergamo by Tuk Tuk, your Italian adventure!
Mirco, Cristina and a brilliant idea
Bergamo by Tuk Tuk was born from Mirco and Cristina‘s passion for small three-wheeled vehicles, which are versatile and irreplaceable especially in many touristic towns with their narrow streets.
Our aim is to offer tourists (and not only them!) a fun and new opportunity to discover the countless beauties of Bergamo, riding a three-wheeled vehicle that has always been a symbol of our Italian creativity: the Ape Calessino, better known in many cities around the world as the Tuk Tuk.
Silent and eco-friendly: the magic of Bergamo with no emissions!
We are a young and dynamic organisation, aiming at satisfying all tour and excursion needs, offering itineraries and exclusive opportunities. Our headquarters are located in our city: Bergamo, a renowned and prestigious touristic destination that is rapidly expanding, especially after its important nomination, together with Brescia, as Capital of Culture 2023. We can reach any location in Bergamo Alta and Bergamo Bassa, the Upper Town and the Lower Town, in a short time, providing our customers with safe and comfortable electric Tuk Tuks, and with our experience as well.
Discovering Bergamo on an Ape Calessino
The Ape Calessino is an iconic vehicle produced by the famous Italian company Piaggio. This three-wheeled vehicle, born in the 1950s, has a retro style inspired by the classic cars of that time, but it is now fully electric, ensuring minimal environmental impact and zero emissions. It is fun, it allows you to connect with nature without the noise of an engine, and it gives you the opportunity to enjoy panoramic city tours to the fullest.

I’m Cristina, co-founder and owner of Bergamo By Tuk Tuk. I didn’t end up in tourism by chance or after a career change—this has been my path since 1995, when I earned my Tourism Operations qualification at the IPSSCT Betty Ambiveri school in Ponte San Pietro.
