Can anyone recommend a good inexpensive hotel for one night in Civitaveccia for pre-cruise stay? Thanks.

Leaving cruise ship early in the morning. How do I make my way to Trastevere station which is enroute to the airport?
1) How far is the nearest railway station from the cruise terminal? My husband has mobility problems and uses a walking stick. I am the only one dragging one piece of luggage and a haversack. If it is too far, are there free/paying shuttle buses or taxi(?) to get to the nearest station to hit the Rome train?

2) How much is the ticket to Trastevere? staying there for 2 nites before hitting the airport for home

3 ) Ticket machines in English? and user friendly?

Appreciate any help. thanks

How can I get from FCO to Civitavecchia? I cannot manage the train? D. Sobul

Hello, We are coming into Civitavecchia on a cruise ship next month, but don't want to go into Rome as we have already been. My husband would like to visit Ostia. How easy is it to get there direct from the port? Many thanks in advance for your advice

Coming to C in July 31st from cruise ship. Dont really want to go to Rome again so is there much to do in C ? Or even around C. We like to see markets, touristy areas, bars etc. All suggestions are appreciated. Bal

We have four days between cruise and flight and we'd like to explore a little beyond C at the beginning of May. The challenge is . . . one of us uses a wheelchair (manual, foldable, lightweight, some mobility with assistance). Plan is to rent a car in C. and drop off at FCO. Train travel with luggage would be impractical. We're seasoned tourists and up for a challenge - but Tarquinia and Ostia look formidable on the YouTube videos I've researched. We love old towns, beautiful countryside, history, culture, food. Would be happy to spend two days here and two days there, if there's things to see and it's reasonably easy getting around. Can a VT expert offer suggestions?

Can anyone recommend a reliable taxi/shuttle service to use to take us from the cruise terminal at Civitavecchia Port to Fiumicino Airport? Also, how long does the journey take approximately?

Hi all, just a question for anyone who might know the coastal area around Civitavecchia. We are taking the train from Roma to CVT the evening before our cruise - I'm finding a chunk of accommodation in Civitavecchia is full - does anyone know if there are any of the small towns and villages on the railway line on the way there that might have a nice B&B that would be recommended? We would get off the train earlier and then take another train the following morning of the cruise. Many thanks for your help

Hello, I am planning a Mediterranean cruise in July 2011 with my family, my son 19 and my daughter 14 and i have been wondering which cruise line to choose, I have found one on Holland America Cruise Line for ten days at the same price with Royal Caribbean for 7. Which company is better? Do teenagers go on Holland America? I have found Holland America interesting but I worry that not may young people go on the cruises. By the way any web pages to book cruises? Thanks for your help

We will be stopping for one day and plan to take the train in from Civitavecchia to Rome. The cruise itinerary says it arrives at 7am. About how long does it take to get from the ship is docked to the entrance of the port? I've read there is a shuttle bus that will do that, and then the walk to the train station is just a few blocks. Is it a good idea to buy train tickets online ahead of time or just wait until we get there? Is there a chance that the earlier times will be sold out? Do the trains generally run on time? THanks for any help.

Hello Does anybody know if there is an easy way to get to the new Aqua Park in Civitavecchia. It is apparently 3 miles away. There will be 12 of us all together. I'm not sure if many taxi drivers would want to take us such a short journey when many people will be wanting tours of Rome. Many thanks in advance. Amanda

Hi, I am looking for a safe and dependable transfer or guided tour for 10 people on a cruiseline from Cittivechia into Rome in 2 days. We'd like to find something reasonably priced, but also with a dependable tour guide. Can anyone suggest any for us? Our preferred price range is about US$150 - US$200 pp. Our alternatives at this point are a 6 person minivan tour for US$2300 (about US$383pp), a taxi for 3 at US$700 (about US$233pp - transfer only), or the train which is very affordable, but only allows us 3 hours to explore Rome. We dock in Cittivechia at 8am, and need to be back by 4pm. We'd like to find something that will maximize our alloted time - about 6 hours in Rome.

Our cruise will end in Civitavecchia, and we would like to rent a car for a few days. Are there any car rental agencies very close to the cruise port, or will we need to get to the downtown Civitavecchia area in order to pick up a car? Thanks very much.
