Transfer by coach to Civitavecchia's station and ride the comfortable express train into the city center of Rome. Meet your guide in Rome and set out on a walking tour of the city's highlights.
At St Peter's Square in the Vatican, you'll have an exterior view of St Peter's Basilica. Enjoy free time to take photos and purchase an Italian gelato (at your own expense).
Walk to Castel Sant Angelo, crossing the River Tiber to reach Piazza Navona. Wander along Via dei Coronari, famous for its little shops full of art and antiques. See the Pantheon from the outside and visit the Trevi Fountain. Toss a coin in -- according to tradition, this will ensure your return to Rome.
Taste two different types of pizza from a nearby vendor. Pass Venice Square and glimpse the ruins of the Roman Forum -- once the heart of the ancient city. At a local restaurant, savor a wine-tasting session accompanied by Italian charcuterie.
View the Colosseum from the outside, with time to snap some excellent photos before returning to the ship by coach.
