MyloveItaly · Civitavecchia cruise port
A guided car or minivan day from the cruise port at Civitavecchia to Civita di Bagnoregio and the Sacro Bosco, the Monster Park of Bomarzo. It is the only listing here that starts at the port and pays both entries.
Civitavecchia is Rome's cruise port, and most shore excursions from it go to Rome. This one heads inland instead. MyloveItaly collects you at the port, drives about an hour and a half to Bagnoregio, walks you through Civita with a guide, then drives to Bomarzo for the Sacro Bosco: a 16th-century garden of giant stone monsters, dragons and a leaning house carved for Prince Vicino Orsini.
Both entry tickets are included, along with the transfer, driver and guide. Lunch and tips sit at the end of the listing's list, where GetYourGuide puts exclusions; guests mention lunch stops, so confirm before you sail. Groups are private or small, and several guests ended up alone with their guide. Some got extra stops in Tuscania, Celleno, a winery at Montefiascone or Orvieto; others did not, so do not count on them.
At about $241 per person it is pricey, and the rating (4.4) is the lowest here. The main risk for a cruise passenger is time: 7.5 to 8.5 hours plus the walk up the bridge. The listing makes no promise about getting you back if traffic runs late, so book it only when the ship is in port long enough to leave a margin.
Pickup at the port; the exact spot comes with your booking. Bookings within 24 hours need a call to confirm.
About an hour and a half by road, then a guided walk over the bridge and through the village.
A break in the area. Check whether lunch is paid when you book.
About 40 minutes' drive. Paths through the woods past the carved giants, the ogre's mouth and the leaning house.
The return drive to Civitavecchia, 7.5 to 8.5 hours after pickup.
★★★★★Our GuideAndrea was very informative. You could tell he loved his country and gave us a lot of historical data as well as agricultural information about the surrounding areas we traveled through.
★★★★★Mirko made our long drive to the Dying City so enjoyable. He gave us Italian language lessons, pointed out things along the route, answered all our questions, and was always right on time for pickup’s. He stopped so we could buy water and also pulled over so we could take photos of the Roman Aqueducts. The Dying City is quite a strenuous walk to get to, but totally worth it.
★★★★★Nothing could be improved. It was absolutely wonderful!!!!!
