Kayak, tasting and drinks are included at €65 per person, nothing extra is charged. Morning or afternoon, and the wine is for adults only. ## Overview We will meet on the lake,(www.instagram.com/romekayaktour) after a small breafing on the beach we will immerse ourselves immediately in the wildest nature listening only to the sound of the water that moves with our paddles, where, stopping at some points, we will tell you the history of Castelgandolfo. A dive into the past, from prehistory to ancient Rome, and then to the Pope's trampoline, where the popes loved to spend their summer holidays. Almost at the end of the tour we will dock on an ancient Roman port and we will find ready for us a tasting of wines, meats and cheeses typical of the place, a relaxing break and then finish the tour in just 10 minutes. A unique experience to store in your Roman vacation ## Key facts - Price: from €65 per person - Duration: 3h - Rating: 4.88/5 from 48 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Canoa Kayak Academy ## Tour options Prices are the operator's current list price for two travellers (whole euros); options sold only to bigger parties say so; pick the option on the booking page. | Option | Price | Guide languages | Details | |---|---|---|---| | Afternoon Tour | €65 / person | Spanish, French, Italian, English | this time is only available in spring and summer | | Morning Tour | €65 / person | Spanish, French, Italian, English | this time is only available all the days of the year | ## What's included - Alcoholic Beverages - Wine tasting - Snacks - Waterproof bag - Technical Clothes if you need - Food tasting ## Not included - Nothing ## Schedule - Runs: daily - Departures: 10:30, 15:30 - Schedule last checked: 2026-09-12 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. ## Meeting point We will see on the beach in front of Saroli Tennis Club ## Good to know - Suitable for all physical fitness levels - Minimum drinking age is 18 years ## How it compares in Day Trips from Rome Ranked **#33 of 77** by Guidekin's weighted score (rating weighted by review volume).
