Rome at Easter!

[doob]

Just booked a Med cruise & realised we will be in Rome on Easter Monday! We know the city will be extremely busy & plan to visit areas away from the Vatican however we are worried that most restaurants will be closed along with shops.

Our question is - is it worth the long journey to & from Rome?? We have visited Rome a couple times on other cruises.

We assume that other towns closer to the port will also be closed :(

Perhaps we would be best visiting Civitavecchia it seems a shame to stay on board....

Any ideas welcome thanks!

I would post this question on the Italy Ports board: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=595

 

Good luck! :)

You posted this on the MSC board, too. Which cruise line are you on, or are you just fishing...? EM

Posted on P&O message board as well as we cruise regularly with all three cruise lines & value any help!

Haven't seen Italian Ports board so will post there as well thank you.
