Livorno & Civitavecchia from Centre?

[thesimpson]

Hi on 19th june i'll be going on my 1st cruise and on board Ventura we wil be stopping off at Livorno & Civitavecchia for a day each as it is our 1st cruise I dont know what to expect when in port, How far is Livorno & Civitavecchia ports from the centre of Rome & Florence and does P&O lay on shuttle buses to and from the port to the centre?

Any other info would be great

If you take a few minutes to look through the threads on this board, you'll find dozens that cover exactly what you've asked.

Hi the long and short is Livorno there will be a shuttle to the edge of the dock area. From there it is a quick ubs ride to the train station and then an hour plus ride to Florence.

 

Civitavecchia, port shuttle to edge of port walk soutyh along the water toward Rome 10 minutes to the Train Station get a BIRG ticket take train to Rome Termni you might want to come back from St Peter's or Ostiense. Enjoy Italy

We were on Ventura in Oct. P&O doesn't provide the buses; the port authority does. You pay 5 euro to the staff member at the bus door in Livorno.

Civvi port provides the bus for free.
