invitemaven Posted February 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I have a question. Our party will have a day after we leave the ship before our plane back to the US. We have hotel reservations inFiumicino. Is there anything worthwhile to see there or should we try to arrange a tour before we get there? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted February 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Try the Europe boards rather than the Celebrity cruise board.....you might get answers from cruisers who travel on other lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSH from Norway Posted February 13, 2017 #7 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I have a question. Our party will have a day after we leave the ship before our plane back to the US.

The day is perfect to go shopping! http://parcoleonardo.it/mobile/ At the end of fco, near one hilton fco-Hotel you will a huge shopping center with a lot of different restaurants, cinema and hotels. At Auchan you will find wine and cheese you maybe never have seen before. Last time i was there i stayed for 10 hours......:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted February 13, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Very local authentic town...they sell pizza by weight , cold and cut it with a scissor. We stayed at the Marriot pre flight...One or two good restaurants towards police sta, if they are still there, but not much more to it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogofman Posted February 13, 2017 #9 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Last year we went on a day trip from Rome to http://www.ostia-antica.org This is a very short distance from the airport, the site was much better than I expected with many double height remains from the original port of rome from ancient times If you like historical sites it's well worth a visit, it's also on the same train line that goes to the Rome lido, beach area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Click Posted February 14, 2017 #10 Share Posted February 14, 2017 We did a tour with Rome Cabs last September. There is some beautiful countryside around that area including a castle to tour, small towns to see, a mountain top village where the one road in and out is only one lane so there is a traffic light to control the flow. We had a 2pm fliight and spent the morning touring the area and were dropped off at the airport at 1pm, our friends had a flight the next day so they stayed in the town of Fiumicino and enjoyed dinner a small restaurant near their hotel. Bottom line, yes there are things to see and do in the area if you look for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaBag Posted February 14, 2017 #11 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Bogofman just beat me to this suggestion. The ruins are well worth a visit. You can get there by train. as I recall there is a little village where you can something to eat as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
