Please help! We are on a cruise and dock in Civatevecchia, we want to do a day trip to Rome on our own, I especially want to see the Sistine chapel, I think we will get a guide, has anyone got any advice/tips? Particularly with train arrangements and timings, thank you!
Ron In Rome has an excellent page addressing exactly this sort of question. Check it out. http://www.roninrome.com/sites-and-attractions/rome-in-a-day-for-cruisers
Thanks Michael... there's also this link on getting from Civitavecchia to Rome and back! A guide would be a good resource, but if you decide to go on your own, these 20 tips on visiting the Vatican might help. Good luck Helen!
