Sail along the Tiber River in Rome and indulge in an evening of Italian elegance with Rome Boat Experience. This city is renowned for its architectural marvels, ancient ruins, and vibrant street life, but drifting on the river offers a different perspective—one that marries scenic cityscapes with culinary delight. The ‘Aperitivo sul battello’ (Aperitif on the boat) experience takes guests aboard a charming vessel, where Chef Marco Mondini crafts a gourmet aperitivo featuring local cheeses, cured meats, fresh vegetables, and artisanal bites. As the boat glides past iconic landmarks like Castel Sant’Angelo and St. Peter’s Basilica, diners sip on crisp prosecco, soaking in the amber glow of sunset over Rome’s skyline. The inclusion of a 24-hour hop-on hop-off ticket makes this offering flexible—guests can hop aboard at different points along the river or enjoy a leisurely cruise at sunset.
This experience combines leisure, culture, and gastronomy, making it ideal for romantic evenings, special celebrations, or simply a memorable way to see the Eternal City from a fresh vantage point. The boat’s design ensures a stable, comfortable setting while offering panoramic views that are perfect for photography. Since the activity is not limited to a set time, it integrates seamlessly into a day of sightseeing, allowing travelers to combine water-bound relaxation with their urban adventures.
