About this tour
Eight hours exploring Rome on your own terms, departing from Civitavecchia at 8am and returning by 5pm. You'll travel in a private sedan or minivan (up to 8 passengers) with a knowledgeable driver who helps shape your day—hit the major sites or chase what genuinely interests you. No set itinerary means you decide whether to linger at the Forum, tackle the Vatican, or find quieter corners of the city.
Highlights
- Private vehicle avoids crowds and queues
- Flexible itinerary shaped around your interests
- Driver doubles as local navigator and guide
- Fits groups of up to 8 comfortably
- Time to actually sit with places, not rush
- Hotel-style pickup and drop-off at cruise port
What to expect
Your driver collects you at 8am and you'll have roughly 6-7 hours of daylight to roam. Whether you're drawn to ancient archaeology, Renaissance churches, neighbourhood cafés, or street-level Rome beyond the guidebooks, your driver can suggest routes and handle navigation. You won't be shepherded through fixed stops; instead you'll move at your pace, staying as long as you want at each spot. The return journey gives you buffer time—no racing back to the ship.
Good to know
Bring comfortable walking shoes and water. Let your driver know priorities upfront so they can plot the day efficiently. Entrance fees to museums and monuments are separate. The vehicle is wheelchair accessible; specialised car seats available for infants.
