Description

We have been certified rafting guides for years, we have had the pleasure of practicing this beautiful discipline on many rivers in Italy and abroad. We have decided to transform this passion of ours and pass it on to others right in our city, the eternal Rome, and let our guests experience a unique and unforgettable emotion, let them know "the Eternal city" from another point of view, through the river Tiber, tell the city in rafting ! The Tiber on Rome is not navigable by anyone, except for us and our dinghies, we have all the permits and requirements to let you know the city by making you experience unique emotions.

A brilliant and unique way to see Rome! 🛶🇮🇹

Absolutely brilliant experience and one of the highlights of our trip to Rome. Daniele was a fantastic guide, really friendly, funny and made the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable from start to finish. Rafting down the Tiber gives you a completely different view of the city, especially passing Castel Sant’Angelo from the river in the evening. We even stopped along the way for some pizza and water, which was a great touch. Daniele made sure everyone knew what they were doing and kept the whole trip fun without it feeling overly organised or touristy. A genuinely memorable way to spend our last evening in Rome and something completely different from the usual sightseeing. Would absolutely recommend it. Thanks Daniele! 🛶🇮🇹

Rafting trip in rome

Easy meeting place, great guides, drift past history. Only complaint was the viator info with voucher said that start and end place was same. The ending point was different which resulted with us trying to get back to starting point with difficulty and time consuming. Need to specifically state start and end point will be different. Other than that, great trip on the Tiber

Recommended for those who want to see rome from a different perspective and escape the crowds and heat.

We had so much fun and laughed the entire time. The guide was experienced and personable, telling us the history of the sites we saw along the way. He explained the ins and outs of paddling and what to do if you fell in-in a way that anyone could understand. We had one person fall in and she was immediately retrieved by our guide- unhurt, laughing and a tad embarrassed. Pizza at the end was also delicious. I one hundred percent recommend this tour for those who want to do something out of the ordinary in rome.

I'd definitely recommend...

I'd definitely recommend this activity. I honestly wasn't sure what to expect after reading the other reviews, but it exceeded my expectations. It was easy to reach the meeting point by train, and we were able to store our bags and a change of clothes in a secure van that met us at the end of the trip. You will get wet. You will have to paddle. But you'll also have a lot of fun doing something completely different in Rome. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, made us feel very safe throughout the experience, and kept the tour enjoyable from start to finish. I highly recommend this activity, especially if you're looking for a fun way to cool off during the hottest part of the day.

An unforgettable experience thanks to Daniele and Angelo

Fantastic experience, absolutely to be tried! Sailing on the Tiber among the historical wonders of Rome is already something special: a relaxing route, enriched by unique views, culminating with a touch of adrenaline as we tackle the rapids of Tiber Island. What made this experience truly unforgettable, however, were our guides, Daniele and Angelo. Even the day before, they contacted us to provide all the necessary information, making us feel their great attention and professionalism right from the start. During the navigation, they accompanied us with friendliness, enthusiasm, and a contagious passion, sharing curiosities and historical anecdotes that made the journey even more interesting. The break with the offered pizza was a very welcome moment of pause before the rapids, and knowing that it was a special occasion for us, they even surprised us with a final toast: a simple gesture but one that made us feel truly welcomed. The beauties of Rome and the atmosphere of the Tiber frame a wonderful experience, but it is the attention to detail, the passion, the availability, and that touch of healthy madness from Daniele and Angelo that transforms it into something we will carry with us for a long time. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Lots of fun

I would book this tour again but directly through Roma Rafting. The meet up information provided is incorrect, it has you go to Piazza del Popolo but the actual meet up point is on the Tiber river. We walked around for almost 30 minutes before someone had to come get us, Roma Rafting did everything they could to make sure we did not miss the tour. The tour overall was a lot of fun and worth the price.

You MUST do this when visiting Rome

What a PERFECT Rome experience. I don't know how anyone can complete a Rome vacation without this rafting trip. You get such incredible views as you raft through the center of Rome. You start with a spectacular view of the Vatican and end with an amazing view of the Great Synagogue. Even though we are not talking Colorado style rapids, the two mini-rapids do add a little adrenaline to the float . . . plus it was rough enough to knock my son off the raft . . . but that was his fault:) GREAT TIME, GREAT GUIDE!!! If I were to make any recommendations to improve the experience, I would say 1: there should be a photographer on the bridge taking pictures as the raft goes over the rapids. I would have paid anything for that photo, and 2: SELL SWAG. I also would have paid a premium for a shirt that said "Rome Whitewater Rafting" :) 10/10

Rome from the Tevere

The rafting guide and the lady helping at shore are super kind and funny. The rafting guide is extremely skilled, having worked all over the world. This is a level 1 activity and you don't need any prior rafting experience. I'd definitely recommend it to those who want to have fun, see Rome from another point of view and dare to get wet in the river Tevere.
