what to see in or outside of Rome.

[flukemaster]

We will be over there in October. So far we have seen or we will be visiting:

Coliseum, Vatican, Spanish steps, pantheon, Trevi fountain, Amalfi Coast, Florance, Senia, Orvieto, Venice, lake Bracciano and Castle.

We have an extra day, so we can go where we want. More than likely going to hire a driver/guide.

What have people done if they have seen alot ( a relative term, I know) before and want to see something else while staying in Rome?

Are you avoiding Rome entirely?  I ask because I've been there more than a dozen times, usually for a week at a time, and I haven't seen everything yet.

 

What kinds of things do you enjoy doing/seeing?

Ostia Antica

The 4 of us are really up for anything. There are alot more thigs I did not list. We have spent ( or will) a bunch of days in Rome already, trying to what things we might be missing.

Confused -- are you staying in Rome for a couple of days pre- or post-cruise?  Or are you looking for things to do departing from Civitavecchia (with an overnight, apparently)?

staying a few days after the cruise

What about Tivoli?

 

In Rome -- Capitoline Museum, Borghese Gallery, Baths of Caracalla, Museum of the Imperial Forums, Scavi Tour (Vatican), Castel Sant'Angelo. Just off the top of my head. Ostia as suggested above is another good idea.

In a little over an hour, by high speed train, you can get to Caserta to visit the royal palace and gardens.   (Both Trenitalia and Italotreno offer high speed service on this route.)
