Civitavecchia Cruise Port to Rome Hotel Transfer

This private transfer from the Civitavecchia cruise port to your Rome hotel is the most straightforward way to reach the city after disembarkation. Your driver meets you at the cruise terminal exit with a name sign, assists with luggage, and takes you directly to your hotel in a private vehicle matched to your group size. There are no shared shuttles, no additional stops, and no waiting for other passengers.

Civitavecchia is the cruise port for Rome, located approximately 50 miles northwest of the city center. The drive to central Rome takes approximately 90 minutes under normal traffic conditions. Traffic into the city can vary considerably depending on the time of day and season, so if you have a specific check-in time or afternoon reservation, please factor this into your pickup time selection.

The vehicle type is matched to the size of your group, from a standard sedan for 2 to 3 passengers up to a minivan or larger vehicle for groups of 6 to 8. Each passenger may bring one large suitcase and one personal item such as a backpack or purse. If you have additional bags, oversized items, or mobility equipment, please contact us before booking so we can arrange an appropriate vehicle and provide an accurate quote.

Child seats are available on request and subject to availability. Please advise at the time of booking if one is needed.

If you would like to combine this transfer with a stop at a Rome landmark such as the Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, or Vatican on the way to your hotel, contact us and we can build a custom itinerary and quote.

Contact us if you need a transfer in the reverse direction from your Rome hotel to the Civitavecchia pier at the start of your cruise.

Please note
  • One large suitcase and one personal item per person are included. Additional luggage must be arranged in advance.
  • Hotel name and full address are required at time of booking.
  • Child seats are available on request, subject to availability.

Reviewer: Travel Agent Ellen T � Uniglobe Tour N Travel from Landenberg PA  
Yes, the tour went really well. They raved about the tour guide and said she was very knowledgeable. The only thing they would have liked was to eat lunch earlier, but they loved the restaurant that she took them too and were treated exceptionally well by the staff there. Thanks for all your help with this booking I will be sure to call you the next time I need a private tour!

Reviewer: Donny Travels from Somerset Center, Michigan  
We had a fantastic experience with our driver and guide Luca on a private tour of Rome. Luca was friendly, informative and made the most of our short time in Rome. The entire family enjoyed him. Weve been on many private tours and Luca was the best we can ever remember. We highly recommend him.

We worked with Ken and he organized a full day private tour of Rome. What an amazing time! Our driver Luca was exceptional in making us feel part of his family. Our private Vatican guide Al was personable and made sure our tour was informative and fun. He knew every inch of the museums and shortcuts to get close to attractions, unlike larger tours. Luca took us to a restaurant for lunch..the food was amazing. After the

5 of 5 Review Location- Civitavecchia Tuesday, May 5, 2026
Reviewer: Janet J from Edmond, Oklahoma  
We enjoyed our vacation so much and our private tours were wonderful! Katrine picked us up in Cannes and we had such an enjoyable day with her. She was a wonderful guide and she made our day so special! There were 8 of us with her that day and we all enjoyed the day -- it was one of our best on the trip! Then, when we were in Rome, we had Constantino who met us at the ship and 4 of us spent the day with him. He, too, was wonderful and so knowledgeable of the history of Rome. He was so flexible with changing some plans at the last minute and suggesting other things we might enjoy seeing. He recommended a great restaurant for lunch and made our day such a memorable experience! I cant say enough good things about our experience with the guides. We definitely would recommend Private Shore Trips and will be using your company again in the future. Our private tours were so much nicer than the tours we did with the ship!
