Arriving in Italy by cruise ship often means having one single day to experience Rome. Crowded buses, rigid schedules and rushed itineraries are not the only option.
With OneWay, shore excursions from Civitavecchia are designed as private, chauffeur-driven experiences, built around cruise schedules and real travel times.
We pick you up directly at the port, organize a perfectly timed visit to Rome, and bring you back safely to the ship — or onward to the airport if your journey continues.
You step off the ship.
We take care of everything else.
Your shore excursion is planned around your ship’s schedule.
Once you contact us, we check arrival and departure times, define how many hours you have available and design a realistic itinerary that allows you to experience Rome without stress.
From the moment we meet you at the port of Civitavecchia, the experience is fully managed. Transportation, routing and timing are handled by OneWay, with constant attention to your return time.
At the end of the excursion, we bring you back to the port in time for embarkation — or directly to Rome Fiumicino Airport if this is the end of your cruise.
Shore excursions require precise timing.
Below are the most common scenarios, designed to help you visualize the day.
Indicative duration: 8–9 hours

Each shore excursion with OneWay is a fully managed service. Private chauffeur-driven transportation, route planning and time management are handled by OneWay, with one single point of contact throughout the day. You pay OneWay. We take care of logistics, timing and return.
OneWay specializes in experiences where punctuality is essential. We plan every shore excursion starting from the ship’s schedule, building the itinerary backwards to guarantee a safe and timely return. This approach allows you to enjoy Rome without worrying about delays. One contact. One plan. One worry-free day ashore.
Shore excursions leave little room for error. That’s why every OneWay experience includes buffer times, realistic routing and constant focus on embarkation schedules. Whether you return to the ship or continue to the airport, your timing is always our priority. You enjoy the day. We make sure you don’t miss the ship.
