Urban Rafting on Rome's Tiber River





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.

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.
Fun and unique experience. Expect mostly calm waters but with a couple 'bumpy' rafting bits (enough to make half of us fall into the raft from our seated positions!) Good for me considering I had zero rafting experience. Regarding the booking, if they do not have enough people to go ahead then you will be offered alternative times or days, if possible, so be aware of that and try to be flexible. I had to attend the day after since no-one else booked for my initial day.
We loved it! A completely different way to enjoy Rome. We had the best guide, who was Facu. It is a very calm and accessible walk for everyone with a couple of rapids that are a bit more exciting. We really enjoyed the experience and always recommend it.
It was a lovely gentle meander along the quiet river Tiber with a bit of fun over the rapids at the end. More information about the sites that we sailed past would have been appreciated. We felt that due to there being more Italian speakers in the group they had more conversation. A better description of where to meet would have been helpful.
Fantastic experience, as a Roman, you have another point of view of the city!
We booked this trip for an early evening activity. Our rafting guide was friendly and very knowledgeable. The general rafting is at an easy level and the 2 mini white water experiences were really good fun. We got quite wet so a change of clothes is needed. There are no toilets or changing facilities at either end of trip. The company were happy to take rucksacks in their car for transport though to meet is at end. There are a few stops during the route for photos and some information about the buildings at the side of the river. At one stop, cold pizza type faccacia sandwiches are provided (I'd have just preferred crisps, cookies or muffins or something but others may love this). All in all, a really nice family activity.
Unique, interesting and most importantly fun! See Rome from a different angle and paddle down the Tiber. Michael was very informative and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Even at the start waiting for other guests, Michael was giving some background the Piazza del Popolo, our meeting point. Highly recommend.
Pretty nice activity overall, but the weather was really not on our side, with heavy rains that made the experience less pleasant. We didn’t plan on suitable shoes or K-Way, so it’s advisable to come well equipped. You must also be comfortable enough in English to follow the instructions. In good weather, the activity would have been even more fun, and it might have been more appropriate to shift it by one day. On the other hand, the host and the person who lent us the equipment, kept our things in his car and brought food and drink (water, pizzas, chocolate, etc.) were really friendly and attentive.
A great time spent with family in a friendly group under the responsibility of Dario. The pizza and bottle of water offered were very appreciated.
It was lovely way to tour Rome and see its grandeur and beauty but on a very different way. Our guide was very knowledgeable and very interesting.
