sarar Posted February 28, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I visited Rome 10 years ago and remember it being very difficult to get round with a wheelchair, does anyone have any other ideas on what to do, or is there much in or near the port?

cberge Posted February 28, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I visited Rome 10 years ago and remember it being very difficult to get round with a wheelchair, does anyone have any other ideas on what to do, or is there much in or near the port? TIA If you read down this board there are a lot of suggestions,some just posted this past week, as to what to do from the port. Have you checked out Trip Advisor re traveling in or with a wheelchair as there is a lot of information that may be of help to you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renroc13 Posted March 7, 2015 #4 Share Posted March 7, 2015 We have stayed in Civitavecchia several times (for a day or 2) when we had been traveling before and after a cruise. It is a nice area...not too much happening but we like it. There is a market to walk through...some waterside restaurants..and we would watch the soccer (football) games from the window of our hotel. Not certain about accessibility. We would call for taxis as there were not many around the last few times we were there. Low key and different from the craziness of Rome.

Shawnino Posted March 8, 2015 #5 Share Posted March 8, 2015 If in your heart you want Rome, but mobility's the issue, check out a golf cart tour. Trip Advisor: http://www.tripadvisor.ca/Attraction_Review-g187791-d4889714-Reviews-My_Best_Tour_Day_Tours-Rome_Lazio.html I don't walk well at all and I had an amazing time in the cart. (My review is five or six from the top by now...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROCruiser Posted March 16, 2015 #6 Share Posted March 16, 2015 We spent a relaxing day in Civitevecchia on our B2B cruises last month. Visited the castle (Michaelangelo?) and the beautiful beach, went inside a couple of churches, strolled along the pedestrian street, and bought a few things from the friendly vendors at the market. Then went back to the ship for a quiet afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kathy16 Posted March 17, 2015 #7 Share Posted March 17, 2015 We are spending 3 nights in Rome at end of our cruise, so we also are looking for something else to do here, at this port stop midway through our cruise. Thanks, Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawnino Posted March 17, 2015 #8 Share Posted March 17, 2015 On turnaround day, I went to Orvieto -- amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boreus Posted March 17, 2015 #9 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I don't know how accessible it may be to a wheelchair, but the Terme Taurine, also known as the Baths of Traiano, in Civitavecchia are worth a visit. They are reviewed on Trip Advisor and here is a web site on them: http://civitavecchia.net/places-traiano_baths.html#anc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
