[Nurse 3D]

We will be in Rome 2 days pre and post cruise. Unfortunately, one of the days is Monday, any suggestions for day trips?

You'll want to check out the Italy ports of call forum. Lots and lots of threads that you will find very helpful for excursions. Link:

Don't know if you have ever been to Rome before but you can easily take all your time in Rome itself.

If you really do want day trip, you can be in Florence in 1 1/2 hrs by train. There are many options and opportunities. Here is a link, not for advertisement but for possibilities. If CC does not like me adding the link just go to www dot viator dot com and type in Rome https://www.viator.com/Rome/d511-ttd#%7B%22listSpec%22%3A%7B%22sortBy%22%3A%22RANK%22%2C%22layout%22%3A%22grid%22%7D%2C%22filterSpec%22%3A%7B%22selections%22%3A%5B%7B%22name%22%3A%22groupId%22%2C%22value%22%3A%225%22%7D%5D%2C%22availabilityRange%22%3A%7B%22from%22%3A%22%22%2C%22to%22%3A%22%22%7D%7D%2C%22currency%22%3A%22USD%22%2C%22destinationId%22%3A%22511%22%7D

The village of Orvieto is an hour train ride away. It is a lovely peaceful getaway from hectic Rome. From the train you take the funicular up to the top for the village and then can just walk around and have a nice lunch.

We took an olive oil tour this summer. It was a day trip and very interesting. Gave us a chance to see life outside the city, learn more about something we use everyday, and enjoy the tastes and sights of the countryside. That said, there is so much to see and do in Rome, even on a Monday. You may want to stay there if it is a first trip.

Not our first trip to Rome but it was only a shore excursion. Thanks for answering so quickly.

As it was said before, you can stay in Rome, you can go to Florence, you can go to venice or Naples. You can buy railway tickets 3 month in in advance www.trenitalia.com. If you go to Florence, buy tickets to Uffizi online in advance.

Hadrian's Villa and Villa D'Este Half-Day Tour from Rome is a must in my opinion. Beautiful ruins and gardens

Just looked a day tour of this on Wednesday. It seems so far it's not available on a Monday.

What's going on or not going on Mondays ? We plan to spend 3 days after a cruise from Venice in Rome. Do we need to change our days ??

There is lots to see and do in Rome itself. We did a few days in Rome before our trip recently. Notes in blog below.
