Description

All set to tour Rome on your own?  Our shared round trip transfer from the port of Civitavecchia to Rome is ideal if all you need is a convenient, economical and dependable ride there and back.

Features of this Civitavecchia-Rome shared round trip transfer:

  • Pick-up at the port transportation hub in Civitavecchia
  • 80-min drive to Rome in air-conditioned vehicle
  • Drop off at the colosseum
  • Rendezvous at the St.Peter's Basilica for transfer back to port

 

After a quick panoramic tour of Rome, you will reach the Colosseum, the most thrilling of the city’s sights and its indisputable emblem.  You will be provided with a map and instructions for the rendezvous at the end of the day.

At the Colosseum, you’ll be in the heart of ancient Rome, the perfect place to begin your self-guided discovery of The Eternal City. You will have approx. 6 hours of free time.

If you want to go inside the Colosseum be sure to prebook a fast track ticket.

The transfer back to the port will depart from St Peters Square.  More details will be provided by your English-speaking tourist escort on the way to Rome.

To follow is a quick summary of the classic sights in Rome:

THE COLOSSEUM

The largest amphitheater in the Roman world, inaugurated by Emperor Titus in 80 AD, the Colosseum seated some 50,000 spectators who would gather to watch gladiators in combat, with each other and sometimes with exotic animals.  The floor of the Colosseum could also be flooded (really!) and mock naval battles were performed.  

CAMPIDOGLIO

The Capitoline Hill (Campidoglio) is one of the seven famous hills of Rome.  At the top of the sloping staircase designed by Michelangelo for both pedestrians and animals carrying passengers, you will find an elegant piazza (also designed by him) lined with Renaissance buildings.  In the center a striking bronze statue of Marcus Aurelius stands proudly, reminding us that Rome belongs to the people of Rome.

From the backside of the hill, you’ll get a beautiful panorama of the Roman Forum.

PALATINE HILL/CIRCUS MAXIMUS

At Palatine Hill, you will get a taste of the glory of the Roman empire.  Here you will see the remains of the Emperor's palace overlooks Circus Maximus, where 250,000 Roman spectators once watched the chariot races.

PIAZZA VENEZIA

Piazza Venezia, known for the Victor Emmanuel Monument, a gigantic complex of white marble sometimes called the "wedding cake”, and for the building that was Mussolini's headquarters, where he gave many of his legendary speeches from the balcony facing the piazza. 

TREVI FOUNTAIN

Among all the gorgeous Baroque fountains in Rome, the most famous is, without a doubt, Trevi. It is also the largest.  

The theme of the fountain is “taming of the waters”, an apt subject in a city like Rome, where engineering brilliance in ancient times created the aqueduct system responsible for supplying Rome with excellent water.

The fountain has appeared in several movies, most memorably in La Dolce Vita, where Marcello Mastroianni and Anita Ekberg get into the fountain, fully dressed in evening wear.

Don’t forget to be part of the ritual -- throw a coin over your shoulder to ensure your return to Rome!  The coins are collected at the end of the day to feed Rome’s hungry.

PIAZZA NAVONA

Piazza Navona is perhaps the most vivid square in all of Rome, beloved by Romans and visitors alike. Three splendid fountains decorate the piazza. 

In the center is Bernini's 17th Century masterpiece, the Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi (Fountain of the Four Rivers).  The four river gods of the fountain embodies the four continents of the world, as they were seen in Renaissance times: Asia (represented by the Ganges), Europe (represented by the Danube), Africa (represented by the Nile), and the Americas (represented by the Rio de Plata).

THE PANTHEON

At the Pantheon, a former temple to all the pagan gods of Rome, you’re sure to be impressed by the gigantic marble columns of the entrance, the handsome coffered dome, and the immense oculus, feats of ancient Roman engineering still thereafter almost 2000 years.

ST. PETER’S SQUARE & BASILICA

Take in the magnitude and splendor of the largest church in Christendom, and the vast piazza encircled by elegant colonnades, The church is filled with fine pieces of art including, most notably, Michelangelo's Pieta and the beautifully carved pulpit by Bernini.
