Number 6w Posted April 4, 2007 #1 Share Posted April 4, 2007 How easy is it to get a taxi from the port to the train station? We aren't purchasing the cruise transfers and need to get to Rome on our own. Because we'll have luggage with us, I think a taxi will be necessary. Thanks!

Rare carlmm Posted April 5, 2007 #2 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Leaving the ship early before the free shuttle to the port exit ran, we had no problems getting a taxi to the train station. Others told about drivers trying to sell them longer trips. Thus some insisting might be necessary but you should be able to get one as you want.

Capsu78 Posted April 5, 2007 #3 Share Posted April 5, 2007 My experienace is they don't want to make this short haul if many people are debarking. They lose their spot in line and they really want the $80-$100 euro fare to Rome. I spent $40 just to get one to take me to a local store to buy some waters and wine before the trip. Get a price up front and repeat it a couple of times. If you wait the crowds out it may be easier to find a cab dropping off early arrivers.

TXEAGLE Posted April 6, 2007 #5 Share Posted April 6, 2007 We will be sailing into Civitavecchia in Oct and are going to try a 1:30 flight out of FCO to London were we will over-night. I am wondering if a 6 AM arrival will allow enough time. Max ship PAX are 1000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
