This is a cruiseship terminal that often offers a free shuttle into town to see the Ancient Fortress of Civitavecchia - A fortress right by the water with great photo ops and views over the harbor. Fontana del Vanvitelli - Beautiful historic fountain in the heart of town. Lungomare Civitavecchiese - Seaside promenade for a relaxing walk along the Mediterranean. Piazza della Vita - Lively square, great for people-watching and gelato breaks. The San Lorenzo Market (near Piazza Regina Margherita) has historic food and a fish market where you can wander local stalls and try cheese, olives, prosciutto, or a quick espresso. Corso Centocelle is the main street into town with shops, cafés, and great people watching. read more

I would most definitely return to this terminal when starting or ending a cruise, and especially through NCL. It was so well-organized and easy. We arrived from Fiumicino via a private airport transfer. It's about a 50 minute ride depending on traffic. We were dropped off in front of the terminal in a very timely manner. I'm mentioning this because we saw others arrive a different way that were turned away because their ship was leaving out of a different terminal. Make sure you have a driver who knows this port well. The process from security to check-in was all very seamless. You'll go up an escalator to the passenger waiting area until it's your time to board. Disembarkation was just as smooth. You enter the terminal and find your luggage using the color tag system that is based on your flight time. Before we knew it, we were already in the parking lot. It was super easy finding our bus to the airport with the terminal personnel directing everyone. The timing was perfect. Not a single worry. It was a smooth experience from beginning to end. read more

Such an easy port to access from Rome. Take a shuttle or the train. The port terminal however is a bit chaotic. Mobs of people. Everywhere. A hour to just get to the security desk. Even with reserved "spaced" out times. Thought that getting off the cruise was so easy, though. Go through security for the last time. Exit down the gangway and just leave. No more security checks. No passport checks. Just grab your bags and depart. Pro tip: Carry off your luggage for even less waiting time. Easy-peasy. read more

This where the Crusie ship docks at the Civitavecchia-Rome, Italy cruise port. Civitavecchia is a coastal city located about 74 kilometers (46 miles) northwest of Rome, and passengers will need to arrange transportation from the port to the city. There is a shuttle service to the ⁩⁦cruise⁩⁦ terminals. I wasn't able to explore this port and city Civitavecchia as it is a lovely waterfront town only one hour by train to Rome. My Viking cruise docked here and we immediately sent out to airport bus to fly out to Munich, Germany . Other people on the ship bough the Crusie extension I think 2-4 days to explore Rome for their post excursions and their tour buses we're waiting for them to start their day. Have fun cruising buddies! Miss ya! read more

The Porto di Civitavecchia was the jumping off point for our next Viking journey around Italy. It is mainly an industrial port for Rome, which is about 35 miles away from DaVinci Roma Fiumicino Airport. Getting through the boarding customs at the Viking tent was a breeze. They checked our bags and then took them to our cabin. Nice. read more

This port is where your cruise ships dock so you can tour Rome, and the surrounding areas. There's a fortress looking thing nearby. It's not a port where you can go walking around. You'll need to take a cab to get out of here or book an excursion to see Rome, etc. It's big and clean though. read more

Amazing experience and well ran port. I could stay here forever. Italy has my heart!!!!

When my husband and I cruised, one of our trips began from and ended at Civitavvechia, so we had both the embark and disembark experience here with RCI. Overall, it was a smooth experience. Prior to boarding the ship at the Port, we stayed at a hotel in Fiumicino (it was about a 45 minute drive to the Civitavecchia). We allowed for enough time to enjoy a scenic drive over there, and we got there on time. When our trip concluded and we disembarked at the Port, it was easy to go through local customs and get to our port-airport transfer arrangements. I would travel through here again. read more

I have passed through this port 11years ago. This trip wasn't a round trip, so this was the finish line. Royal Caribbean at this time still isn't at a 100% capacity. So rather efficiently and quite quickly we were off the ship in no time. In fact we picked up our luggage and had it on the airport shuttle bus in 15 minutes. This port is an hour north of FCO by bus. The ride is a scenic countryside drive. If arriving by ship I highly recommend their shuttle service because taxis into Rome or the airport can be scarce. read more

Royal Caribbean Cruise 6 days aboard this beautiful ship. This ship is a city on water. This dock has several cruise lines docking her. A few days a ship with Batman painted on it was dockied here. Now Superman is docked along with Royal Caribbean. read more

Very clean port. Minimal food options. Clean restrooms. Helpful and friendly port facility staff. On the day we disembarked, taxi-cabs were not plentiful. Our car service had cancelled overnight so we had to share a cab with another couple. Make sure you have cash, the taxi-cabs insist on cash (unclear if this is legal but you won't have much choice if you need a taxi). read more

The bus that dropped us off was able to do so close to the entrance of the port building. The building was easy to navigate. There was plenty of seating, including handicap seating. The building was kept at a comfortable temperature. The walk from the building to the ships was a reasonable distance. Staff were friendly. read more

I am only ranking this as a cruise port disembarkation locale. It is basically a seemingly temporary structure set up solely for you to claim your luggage and connect with ground transportation. I'm not sure how much of a role the cruise line plays, but the process was efficient and seamless. Our luggage was waiting in the organized, color coded area, and a uniformed agent promptly directed us on how to proceed to our airport transfer. No complaints here! read more

In A Nutshell: -This is very poorly laid out port, as far as trying to figure out how to get to/from your cruise ship is concerned. -The first challenge is trying to get here. You can take the train, taxi or bus to get to/from here. -If you take the train to get here, please keep in mind that the train station is about a 20 minute walk to the port. -That might not seem like a lot, but if you are hauling luggage around, it's a pain in the butt....so the solution is to buy a bus pass and use the bus stop across the street from the train station which will take you to the port. Do the reverse if you are finished w/ your cruise (however my Canadian friends were pretty pissed off when they waited over 1 1/2 hours at the train station due to the delays - they eventually decided to take a cab to FCO). -After you disembark from your cruise ship, if you didn't buy a bus pass PRIOR to the cruise, you will have two options: take one of the handful of cabs (€200 to Rome) OR walk about 1/2 a mile and search for a cheaper cab. -Uber is available BUT VERY LIMITED, there isn't UberX, the only Uber I was able to find was an Uber Van, after hailing it (it was about 25 min away), we eventually found a private driver (it was slightly cheaper, even after being charged €15 for Uber cancellation fee). Overall, try to plan ahead and purchase a bus pass, it will make your life easier. Trying to find a cheap taxi OR using the train will result in A LOT of SWEAT ;) read more

It is efficient, but quite basic. There is little in the way of services. This time we booked a car service to Rome since we had trouble getting a cab to Rome the first time. read more
