Ground transportation

Stazione Fiumicino partenze - From the airport's train station you can get to various points in Rome

By Rail

There are two train lines to get you into Rome:

  • Leonardo Express trains leave every 30 minutes to the central train station Roma Termini (35 minute, non-stop trip). These trains arrive at platform 23/24, which is a 400-m walk from the main station. Tickets cost €14 and are available (within 7 days of departure) on line. Tickets sold at the departure platform are also €14 if bought from a kiosk in the center of the station or €15 if bought from an agent. So if there are three of you it is cheaper to take a taxi and you get delivered to your door. You can't buy a ticket for a specific train; it's just a general ticket for a specific route (Termini), but it's good for any time. Get your ticket stamped in a yellow validation machine just before using it. The ticket will expire 90 minutes after validation.
  • The Metropolitan train (FL1) does not stop at Termini. Get off at Tiburtina Station or, before that, at Ostiense Station where you can connect to Line B of the Rome Metro, or get off at Trastevere Station and from there take the '8' tram (direction 'Argentina') to go to Largo Argentina and Campo de' Fiori. Tickets are €8, plus €2.90 for a metro/tram ticket. The extra cost of the Leonardo Express is for the convenience of a direct ride to Termini and for skipping intermediate stations. If you are going somewhere else close to a Metro station, Tiburtina and Ostiense stations are as convenient. Get your ticket stamped in a yellow validation machine just before using it.

Best way to travel in Leonardo da Vinci-Fiumicino Airport by a Taxi

There is a fixed fare of €48 from Fiumicino Airport to downtown (any point at your choice within the city's ancient Aurelian Walls) and vice versa. Taxis in Rome are white. Occasionally taxis in the queue at the airport are not from Rome but from the town of Fiumicino. These are not bound by the fixed fare rule and are best avoided.

Transport between Fiumicino Airport and Ciampino Airport costs €50.

For most other destinations fares are not fixed and are based on the meter.

Generally, Rome taxi drivers are hard-working honest people. But there is a hard core of crooks, and these tend to work the airports and the main station. Do not negotiate the price for the downtown and be sure your driver activates the meter (all regular taxis have a meter) when he/she starts driving to any destination not covered by a fixed fare. Drivers at the airport may try to talk you into paying more than the fixed fare, saying that your destination is 'inside the wall' or 'hard to get to'. If they try to overcharge you at your destination ask them to call a policeman. They will probably back down. Be aware as well of unlicensed "taxi" drivers. Go directly to the taxi stand and ignore agents. See Rome#By_taxi for more taxi scams.

By rental car

Rental cars are available from all major companies. Providers can be visited easily in the arrivals halls.

By limousine

Licensed limousine drivers may approach you at the airports, particularly Fiumicino where there are several companies (mainly cooperatives) with booths close to the exit. A drive with them to the center could reach as high as €80 but if you are in a group a large limousine or "van" could be cheaper than two taxis.

Easy Private Taxi offers licensed limousines or minicabs that you can book in advance online. A sedan (usually a Mercedes E-class) from Fiumicino Airport to Rome Centre and hotels can be booked for €45 or a minivan for €55.
