Rome City Day Tour
Private full-day guided tour of Rome — Colosseum, Vatican, Trevi Fountain, and Piazza Navona — chauffeured door-to-door from Civitavecchia Port, Rome or Fiumicino Airport.
Rome is one of the greatest cities on earth, and a single day is enough to experience its most iconic landmarks when you travel with a private driver who knows every shortcut. Our Rome City Day Tour is the most popular shore excursion from Civitavecchia Port and the ideal first-day experience for guests arriving at Fiumicino Airport.
We pick you up directly from the port gate or your hotel and drive you into the heart of the Eternal City in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. No coach transfers, no timed group tickets — just you, your family or group, and a flexible itinerary tailored to your interests.
What You Will See
The classic Rome itinerary covers the landmarks every visitor dreams about: the Colosseum and Roman Forum, the vast collections of the Vatican Museums with Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling, the grandeur of St. Peter's Basilica, the theatrical Trevi Fountain, and the Baroque masterpieces of Piazza Navona. If your group prefers to swap one stop for the Borghese Gallery, Trastevere, or Campo de' Fiori, just let us know in advance.
Your driver remains at your disposal throughout the day, waiting near each attraction and ready to suggest the best local restaurants for lunch. All tolls, parking fees, and fuel are included in the fixed price.
Practical Information
Pickup is at Civitavecchia Port Gate 4 (or your cruise terminal) or at the Fiumicino Airport arrivals. Return drop-off is to the same location. The drive from Civitavecchia to Rome takes approximately 75 minutes each way. We recommend departing by 08:00 to make the most of the day, especially in summer.
Entrance tickets to the Colosseum and Vatican are not included in the tour price but can be pre-booked through us at an additional cost to skip the queues.
