photoTips on traveling in Italy:

If you plan to drive in Italy, read my articles on driving in Europe and car rentals: when to rent, when to lease. For train travel, consider a rail pass such as the Eurailpass, Italy Flexi Rail Card, or France 'n Italy Pass from our partner, Rail Europe. (You can even get "Rail n' Drive" passes that combine rail travel with a rental car.)

This page covers everything you need to know about getting to or from the airport, including details on car parking. (However prices were still in lire the last time I checked.) From Travel Italy.

Ride in a van from your hotel to Leonardo da Vinci Airport in Fiumicino. The company also delivers cruise passengers to Rome's port of Civitavecchia (see below).

Rome's port of Civitavecchia is easy to reach by train from the Termini Station. AirPortShuttle (see above) can get you to or from the port if transfers aren't provided by your cruise line. For more information on the port and its attractions, see Civitavecchia.com.
