This walk is a small adventure: we hunt for dragons, go up a tower, cross a riddle of a bridge and taste everything worth tasting.

The whole blog →Kids tours in Rome in Russian
Kidster runs nine programmes in Rome: quests around the Colosseum and the historic centre, tours of St Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Museums, Leonardo's workshop, a gladiator school and cooking workshops. All are built for children aged 4 to 16 and run in small groups of up to five.
The tours are led by Russian-speaking guides who live in Rome. Booking goes through a manager, who confirms the date and explains the payment terms. Museum entrance tickets are paid separately, and your guide will say in advance which time slots to buy.
