Going to come into Civitavecchia (Rome) will need a driver and a guide. Does anyone know how to get a hold of a certified guide and driver. In May.

If you are staying in Rome are you sure you want a driver? From what I remember traffic in Rome is terrible. The best way to see the sites in Rome is by public transport and on foot. As regards a certified guide have you tried looking up the Rome tourist office on the internet.
I just got back from my cruise visiting the Eternal City of Rome. We arrived in the port of Civitavecchia, and it was not hard to get a train to Rome at all. I tried getting a guide but you know those Italians, it was difficult to do anything last minute. I ended up doing the walking tour, I downloaded from the web. It was not hard but it was a busy day.
The subway system was a trip and it was crowded. There were signs in English, everywhere "Beware of pickpoketers". I loved Rome and everyone there were very nice. I would visit again.

Hi CSW,
Thanks for coming back to tell us about your trip. I would love to go to Rome and Venice. What were your favorite points of the walking tour?
What kind of cruise did you take and what were the ports of call?

Chris,
Rome was very easy to get around. I think the Vatican was my favorite, it could take you forever to see everything.. so it is best to just take some time and enjoy a little and someday go back and do a little more. The Sistine Chapel was great and of coarse Michaelangelo's Pieta was not to be missed, even though it is now behind glass.
What I like the most about being in Rome was people watching, from the tourist to the vendors, I LOVE it !!
CSW
