Great way to see Rome fast

Jason_S, Nov 2025
It was a very good trip. The fastest way to see the most of Rome in 3hrs. Very personable and friendly. We were limited on time and this option was a great way to see Rome and get to our cruise on time.

Rome pre-cruise BUDDIES

Victor_V, Dec 2024
Tour guide/driver was very professional and polite. Clean vehicle and friendly atmosphere. My group had a very good time.

Good trip to the Port

Bryce_c, Jul 2024
Very nice and knowledgeable duo. Very pleasant, flexible and helpful. I learned a lot about other areas of Rome on the drive.

Great sampling of the best of Rome

Sameer_M, Jun 2024
We used the airport pickup option for the extra 70 Euros. Very convenient to have big van to carry luggage and our family of 5 comfortably. We made photo stops, not actual in depth tours of the sights, but this was perfect to get a flavor of the city and rich history of Rome. Saw the long lines and would have taken days to actually tour everything. This was a perfect overview and got some great pictures. Our driver offered to customize if something specific we wanted to see, but we were very happy with the selection he had. The photo stops included an opportunity to grab a gelato and coffee. Then, we went to the Cruise port at Civetcchia which is over an hour away. We were exhausted after the long flight from US, so capturing all those sights in 3 hours was great and made it to ship well on time!

Great tour/ port transfer for us

Darrell_M, Apr 2024
This excursion was a great option to fly into Rome a day early for a cruise, get picked up at your hotel morning of the cruise, getting to see 6 or 7 popular attractions then dropped at the port terminal to board. Our guide, Alan, was very knowledgeable of Rome and all the small streets, spoke excellent English, and was accommodating in allowing us to make the timing decisions. It was a great way to at least see several places of interest in Rome on a limited timeline.

We saw Rome in a day!

Cathy_R, Nov 2023
What a fantastic tour of Rome. Ahmed made sure we saw everything including The Vatican! Highly recommend!

Pre Cruise Tour of Rome

Hassle Free

Carla_R, May 2023
This was a great tour to do on a short timeframe. We were picked up at airport, saw some amazing places and dropped off at the cruise port all in the same vehicle. Made our short visit to Rome hassle free
