Duration : 5 Hours
Starting From:Super-size your transfer from Rome
or Rome airport to the port of Civitavecchia, or vice versa! This tour
has been designed especially for those wanting to maximize their time pre- or
post-cruise by touring Ancient Rome with a private guide and transfer.
Features of this pre-or post-cruise tour of Ancient Rome:
After
being whisked to the Colosseum by your courteous chauffeur you will be met by
your expert tour guide who will escort you on an exclusive 3-hour walking tour
through history.
The Colosseum, where 50.000 spectators watched cruel battles between gladiators and wild beasts in Ancient Roman times, is surely the most fascinating monument in Rome, and also its most iconic; its image is recognizable the world over as the symbol of The Eternal City. You will hear amazing stories, facts, and figures regarding the Colosseum and the ruins in the Roman Forum.
This excursion functions equally well pre- or post-cruise. Pre-cruise we can pick you up at your Rome lodgings or from either of the Rome airports, even a train station. Post-cruise we will pick you up at the port of Civitavecchia. In order to pick you up right at the ship, we recommend the use of minivans, even if your group is larger than 8 persons.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING TICKETS:
Please be aware that obtaining skip-the-line tickets is not guaranteed
and is contingent on availability, which is confirmed at the time of booking.
Due to the activities of prominent agencies with early access, securing tickets
has become more challenging. Ticket sales for the Vatican Museums open two
months before the selected date, while the Colosseum opens one month ahead. If
we are unable to secure tickets, alternative activities will be proposed.
Pre-purchased tickets are non-refundable, but we will make every effort to find
suitable alternatives.
NOT INCLUDED
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING TICKETS:
Kindly note that the acquisition of skip-the-line tickets is not guaranteed. Procurement is dependent on availability, to be confirmed at the time we go to book them. Booking tickets has become extremely difficult this year due to the activities of huge agencies that have access to sales ahead of agencies such as ours.
Ticket sales for the Vatican Museums open (to us) two months ahead of the selected date; the Colosseum one month ahead.
In the event we can't secure tickets, we will offer you an alternative activity. There is no end to fascinating archeological sites and amazing churches in Rome.
Our intention is not to cause alarm but we felt it was important to be transparent regarding this difficult situation in order to manage expectations. Rest assured we will do our very best to find any tickets you request through our trusted suppliers. We appreciate your understanding.
