TOUR DESCRIPTION
 

Civitavecchia Shore Excursion

This 8-9 hour Civitavecchia shore trip is for those who want 100% free time while they are in Rome. You are met at the pier in Civitavecchia and transferred to central Rome. Upon arrival you are dropped off at a designated spot and then you have 5-6 hours of free time to explore Rome on your own. You organize your own time while on foot, using public transit or taxis (if you choose). At the set meeting time and place you will be met for the return transfer back to your ship in Civitavecchia. This option includes an English Speaking Driver and a private vehicle for your round trip transfers.

The drop off and meeting point for this shore excursion is the Theater of Marcellus which is in central Rome. This ancient open-air Roman Theater is located at the edge of the Roman Forum and near the Victor Emmanuel Monument. From this point you can walk to sites such as the Roman Forum, the Colosseum, the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain and many more sites and famous squares in Rome. At the end of the day you must return to the meeting point for your private vehicle to take you back to the pier in Civitavecchia. In most cases a different meeting point can be arranged if you wish.

Mobility: NO wheelchairs

5 of 5 Review Location- Civitavecchia 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!

Reviewer: Chris P from Houton, TX  
I have to send you a BIG THANK YOU. My Cruise of a lifetime to The Holy Land on a 12 Night Cruise on Royal Caribbeans Odyssey of the Seas was the best and I have to say that because every port that we visited for 8 days straight were FANASTIC and all of the guides and bus drivers in each port were very good at what they do, very professional, very punctual and very informative. I will use your company always and I highly recommend you all to anyone looking for tours and excursions for any cruise. You all are THE BEST. Alessandra in Rome, Italy and Roni in Israel gave us the best tours. We are very grateful to them and all the others.
