Airport Transfers
Private airport transportation from Rome Ciampino Airport (CIA) in Italy to hotels and apartments in central Rome, near the Colosseum and Vatican City, and at Roma Termini, booked before you land.
Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Rome–Ciampino G. B. Pastine International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.
After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.
Our airport transportation from Ciampino takes you to hotels and apartments across central Rome, around the Colosseum and Monti, in Trastevere and near Vatican City, to Roma Termini and the city's other stations, to the Castelli Romani towns such as Frascati, and across to Fiumicino Airport.
Ciampino airport transfers start in the arrivals hall of the single terminal, where your driver waits with a name sign after baggage claim and customs. We track your flight, so the pickup follows your real landing time, and the fixed price per vehicle is agreed before you fly, from a sedan for two to a van for a family or group with luggage.
Each Ciampino airport transfer goes door to door, with no change at Roma Termini, to your hotel, apartment or vacation rental in Rome, to a train station, or across the city to Fiumicino Airport. Sailing from Civitavecchia or heading south to Naples? Enter the address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.
Our Ciampino airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, not the shared coach to Roma Termini that leaves when it fills and drops everyone at the station. It goes straight to your door with room for suitcases and strollers, and suits families and groups arriving on Ryanair flights.
From private sedans to group vans. One fixed price per vehicle, whatever your party size.

Rome–Ciampino G. B. Pastine International Airport (CIA) is Rome's second airport, in the town of Ciampino southeast of the city, and Aeroporti di Roma runs it. All scheduled flights, most of them Ryanair, use one low-rise terminal with separate departure and arrival areas. There are no jet bridges, so you walk or ride a bus from the aircraft to the terminal.
Flights from Italy and other Schengen countries arrive without passport checks; from outside the Schengen area, including the UK and Morocco, you line up at passport control. After collecting your bags at one of the four baggage belts, you walk through customs into the arrivals hall, where pre-booked drivers meet passengers.
Rome is on Central European Time (UTC+1) and switches to UTC+2 for daylight saving time from late March to late October. Italy uses the euro.

Historic center traffic zones. Much of central Rome is a limited traffic zone (ZTL) with pedestrian streets, so give your full address; your driver stops at the nearest point a car can reach.
Decline ride offers inside the terminal. Rome's licensed taxis are white with a TAXI sign on the roof. Turn down people who approach you inside the terminal and look for your driver with your name sign.
