PRE CRUISE COUNTRYSIDE TOUR
If you’ve already toured Rome, or you wish to enjoy a relaxing morning in the countryside and escape the hustle and bustle of Rome, you will enjoy our Pre Cruise Countryside Tour that takes you to the lakeside town of Bracciano to visit the imposing Renaissance-era Orsini-Odescalchi Castle (popularly referred to as Bracciano Castle).
You will feel transported back in times of folklore of kings, queens, knights, lords, and ladies as you visit the opulent rooms adorned with priceless wall art, paintings, and intricate ceilings and furnished with original centuries-old furniture. The view from the top of the castle walls of Lake Bracciano and the surrounding countryside will simply amaze you.
As you continue your countryside tour, a short drive through the rustic countryside will take you to Ceri, the Medieval clifftop village where time seems to have stood still. The local family-owned restaurants in Ceri are well regarded in the region for their delicious homemade dishes prepared with fresh local ingredients using Grandma’s secret recipes passed down from generation to generation.
After lunch, your driver will take you directly to your ship in Civitavecchia so you can begin your cruise happy and rested.

GOING TO ROME POST CRUISE?
If your cruise ends at Civitavecchia and you will be going to Rome for a post-cruise stay, why not make the most of your full day to enjoy the best of Rome?
Why book a Post Cruise Tour with RomeCabs?
- Don’t waste a perfectly good day trying to make your way to your hotel in Rome from the cruise ship dragging your luggage on trains and public transportation that would take you hours to reach Rome, and then arrive too late in the day, and too tired and hot (in the summer it is very hot in Rome, and not all trains and public transportation vehicles are air-conditioned) to get the most out of your day in Rome.
(Pick up/ Drop off pierside next to your ship in Civitavecchia: Excursions Pre-Cruise, Post Cruise Tours) - Your personal English-speaking Driver will meet you right on the pier next to your ship ready to whisk you away to Rome on an unforgettable adventure exploring the Eternal City. Your luggage will travel with you, so you do not have to worry about your luggage or carrying your luggage from your ship to your hotel. At the end of the tour, your driver will take you and your luggage directly to your hotel accommodation in Rome.
- At the end of an activity-packed cruise, you may be too tired to embark on a sightseeing adventure on foot around Rome that can be quite exhaustive and physically demanding even for rested travelers. The cobblestone streets, the slow, crowded, and hot public transportation, huge crowds, and traffic can make getting around Rome on your own more challenging. You can easily eliminate the stress, exhaustion, and time necessary to plan your sightseeing routes by simply booking a Rome Post Cruise Tour and enjoying Rome by car!
- You will see far more in 1 day on our tours by car, comfortable and cool in our air-conditioned deluxe vehicles, than you would in 2-3 days on foot on your own and on public transportation.
- Your driver will take you as close as lawfully possible to each site you visit and wait for your return for optimal convenience. You will NOT be alone or on your own in a foreign city… your caring driver will look out for you and you will be very well taken care of.
- On our Post Cruise Tours, you will MAXIMIZE your sightseeing opportunity, MINIMIZE your necessary walking, and see MORE of Italy in LESS time!
- We also offer a full-day Countryside Post Cruise Tour for cruisers who have already toured Rome, or who wish to experience other exciting places in Italy from their cruise ship on the way to their hotel in Rome.
- You can convert ANY regular full-day Shore Excursion from Civitavecchia into a Post Cruise Tour with pick up at your ship and drop off at your hotel in Rome, adding to your touring options. Just go to our website featuring Civitavecchia Excursions, and select your preferred tour to be converted into a post-cruise option.
- Post Cruise Tours are also flexible and customized: if you will be staying at one of the Airport Hotels in Fiumicino, or you have an afternoon flight from Fiumicino Airport, you may book a Post Cruise Tour of Rome or the Countryside with drop off at your hotel in Fiumicino or the Airport. Because our tours are private, you have the option to customize it for your needs. Unlike standard Civitavecchia excursions that require returning to the ship by a specific time, the post-cruise option with drop-off at your hotel means you can even extend your tour if you wish!
- You can also SAVE MONEY on your Post Cruise Tour by inviting other like-minded fellow cruisers from your ship who are also staying in central Rome post-cruise to join your preferred tour. It’s very easy to place an AD on Cruise Critic Roll Call with a link to your preferred tour so others interested in joining you can learn more about the tour. You may create your own privately shared tour on any Civitavecchia Excursions, or for excursions from other cruise ports as well. We included this information in our TOUR SHARING page.
