Discover Rome’s grand history and artistic treasures in a single, well-paced day tailored for cruise passengers leaving from Civitavecchia. The experience begins with a comfortable transfer that sets the tone for a relaxed day of sight-seeing, offering sweeping city views and carefully chosen photo opportunities that highlight Rome’s mix of ancient ruins, Renaissance splendour and Baroque piazzas.
During the touring hours you will enjoy a curated overview of the city’s most celebrated exterior landmarks, followed by an in-depth, guided exploration of the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel, where iconic masterpieces and frescoes are revealed with expert commentary. Lunch time is left free so you can sample authentic Roman cuisine at your own pace and savour the local atmosphere.
The programme has been designed to make the most of limited time while allowing flexibility to adapt to local events and access restrictions. It is an ideal option for travellers who want a comprehensive introduction to Rome’s highlights in a single day, with the option to request personalised arrangements for groups or special occasions.
