Rome and excursions:
There are so
many things to see and do when visiting Rome.
First you need to know how many days you have to explore this wonderful
city. Rome is the Capital of the World. Some of the things to visit while in Rome are
Roman Forum, St. Peter’s Basilica, Sistine Chapel and the Vatican Museums,
Colosseum, Panatheon, Spanish Steps and the Trevi Fountain. These are some of my personal recommendations
if your stay in Rome is short. You
create wonderful memories of this fantastic Vacation pictures at all these
famous sights. When you get home you
will be glad that you spent the extra time to Visit some Historical Sites that
interest you personally. Happy Travels
and Pick Your Excursions Wisely.
The Vatican – The Home of the Pope requires at
least One Full Day of your time. Truly
worth the time you spend exploring the Home of the Pope and the Smallest Nation
in the World. There are always long
lines to get into St. Peter’s Basilica and the Sistine Chapel. Be prepared and have your travel agent pre
book these tours to make the best use of your time. Go right to the front of the lines with your
tour director
Transfer from Airport to Downtown
Hotels. You can hire a taxi, set up a private
transfer for minimum amount based on 5 traveling together. If there are only two of you traveling I
recommend pre-purchasing a shared transfer and it will run you about $32.00 USD
per person. When you hire a Private
Transfer the tour company provides directions on where to meet at the airport
and will take you directly to your hotel.
After
traveling from the USA, you are pretty tired and getting to your hotel room is
one of the best things to do and get some rest.
Tranfers from Downtown Hotels to the
Cruise Port: Here you can take the trains, but you will be
let off in city center and then need to take a TAXI to the cruise port.
I recommend
private Transfers from a Vendor that your Travel Agent can pre-purchase for you
for approximately $59.00 USD per person. The Cruise Lines want to charge
$96.00 so you can see the savings to you
when you pre book the transfers from somewhere other than the cruise lines.
Boarding Your Ship:
The Cruise Port: The Cruise Ships
Embark and Debark frin the port that is approximately 1 – 1 ½ hours away from Rome depending how
much traffic you run into. Highly
recommend another private transfer to eliminate the Stress of getting to the
Ship on Time. There are strict rules
that the cruise lines want your paperwork filled out before you leave
home. It makes boarding more streamline
for all the passengers. Allow at least
2-4 hours prior to departure to board your floating city for the week.
