Get a fresh perspective of one of the most famous cosmopolitan cities in the world as you paddle your way across the stunning Tiber River in the heart of Rome!

to travel far for this outdoor adventure. You’ll meet your expert guide in Piazza del Popolo where they will accompany you to the starting point of your trip on the famous Tiber River, telling you some fun facts about Rome along the way!

This was a great, fun way to see Rome and to learn some of the history. As a family of 5 from New Zealand with children aged 10, 11 and 13, we all thoroughly enjoyed this activity.
