Hydromania Tours and Activities

When temperatures rise, do as the Romans do and cool off at Hydromania, the capital’s only outdoor water park. The whole family can splash around on high-octane waterslides, a spin bowl, a wave ride and wave pool, a kids’ lagoon, a beach area, and more—all just minutes from the city center.

You can easily spend an entire day at Hydromania. Older kids will get their thrills on the Black Hole, Big River, and K2 slides while tots enjoy the mellower rides in the Kids’ Laguna. Check out the Olympic and wave pools, facilities for beach volleyball and soccer, and hot tubs—or just relax in the beach area. Hydromania can get crowded on summer days, so book your ticket in advance to save time at the entrance.

Hydromania is located along the GRA beltline highway that encircles Rome. Take metro line A to the Valle Aurelia stop, then transfer to bus 90. If you’re driving, take exit 33 Pescaccio/Casal Lumbroso. Otherwise, book a package that includes round-trip transportation from central Rome.

The water park is open daily from June to mid-September. Visit on a weekday to avoid the long lines that form at the most popular slides and rides.

Rainbow MagicLand 

If your family needs a break but it’s not swimsuit weather, consider a jaunt to Rainbow MagicLand, about 45 minutes southeast of Rome. With shows, a planetarium, and dozens of rides and attractions, you’ll find plenty of lighthearted fun at the city’s largest amusement park.
