Fun and Unusual Activities things to do in Rome
Rome offers a plethora of opportunities to experience unique and fun adventures. You can discover the city in an original way by riding a scooter on a spectacular tour or flying tandem with a paraglider over its parks. You can stroll through the alleys of Trastevere with an expert guide to savor the flavors of Roman cuisine, from street food at the local market to dining prepared by famous chefs aboard a historic tram through the capital, accompanied by live music. You can join a themed treasure hunt or simply wander the city’s streets in a vintage car.
If your interest lies in new technologies, then a visit to Technotown is worth it. It’s a technology center where children can experiment with robotics, virtual reality, and other tech. Anyone who enters can freely visit the themed exhibition with an admission ticket. According to a predetermined schedule, you can participate, upon reservation, in the bookshop, the daily creative factory, courses, creative workshops, or scientific talks or cafés.
If you love cinema and TV, don’t miss the theme parks of Cinecittà World, where you can enjoy attractions and shows. And if you want to uncover the secrets of the famous Dream Factory, visit “Cinecittà si Mostra,” an exhibition that will reveal the rich artistic and cultural heritage of the place.
Another experience to try in Rome is participating in a go-kart grand prix, featuring three-level tracks that offer a unique experience: an urban circuit with thrilling uphill and downhill sections, breathtaking curves, and straightaways. The tracks are surrounded by moveable safety barriers for exciting challenges monitored through electronic telemetry.
Thanks to the indoor tracks, you can have fun all year round without worrying about the weather conditions.
Are you a cooking enthusiast looking to become a Masterchef in Rome? Learn to prepare pasta, ravioli, and tiramisu with the guidance of a professional chef. But you might also want to spend the evening enjoying yourself at one of the many venues like:
- a fun and unusual risto-pub with a slide, a jungle, and karaoke.
- a cinephile restaurant featuring dishes from films, statues, and robots.
- a medieval restaurant with a round table, beer from a horn, and a sword in the stone.
- a restaurant with vintage games, cosplay, and themed shows. You can challenge your friends, meet your heroes, sing and dance, or buy arcade games and gadgets.
If you prefer adventure and history, try the Gladiators’ School, where you will learn ancient combat techniques, or watch a show dedicated to Rome, with immersive projections and interactive models. You can also visit a noble residence with virtual reality reconstructions or walk on the bottom of a transparent pool at the Eur lake.
What about the new Roman trends? Visit the San Lorenzo and Pigneto neighborhoods, areas known for being hip and student-friendly, where intellectuals and artists feel most at home.
Lastly, if you love thrilling experiences, don’t miss the helicopter flight over the Capital with a final parachute jump!
