Civitavecchia (Rome) cruise port: excursion prices and pier guide
Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy (Europe). Regional trains to Rome take about 1h15 and leave from a station a 15-minute shuttle ride from the berths. Independent prices here only count tours that start from the Civitavecchia port, and city and ruins rows only count Rome tours, so the transfer to Rome is included on both sides.
