The Tiber narrows into a slow, reflective channel as Stradivaria slips from a quiet quay. You feel the hull breathe underfoot and the city's stone facades slide past in a succession of frames: domes, bridges, crenellated walls. Glasses of Prosecco catch the light; the pilot eases the boat toward the shadow of Castel Sant'Angelo and the river narrows into a corridor of Roman time.
