Our plan last year was to hire a car (Hertz in Civit) and look at Ostia and then down to Anzio. Booked the car months in advance but not long before leaving for Europe I read on this board about the Monday closure of many venues. We finished up driving to the North West of Rome for lunch and then North to buy some wine. Invited a Canadian couple we had met on the cruise and had a really great day.
I used a GPS for navigation, and aside from a couple of minor detours found it to be very useful. Passing the interchange that turns you of to Ostia and the airport I noticed it was very well signed and very ocvious as to which way we would have gone.
