BATTELLI DI ROMA
It is rather daring to consider the Tiber as an alternative means of transport but to discover the city from the river is an opportunity not to be missed. A cruise service supported by Comune di Roma is available offering different types of trips by day and by night.
The route covers a 6KM tract of the Tiber crossing the most suggestive part of the city - from the Ponte Risorgimento (bridge) to the Isola Tiberina (island) but it also runs south of the city from Ponte Marconi to the ancient Roman port of Ostia.
Like Paris, London and Prague, Rome has also rediscovered the charm of its river as well as the opportunity to let visitors get to know the Eternal City from another point of view, the Tiber.
