Transfers to and from Rome's airport Transfers to and from Rome's seaport Civitavecchia Transfers to and from Rome and other cities Transfers to and from Rome's train station

It surely makes a difference to arrive at Rome's airport knowing someone will be there to receive you!. Someone who'll be there to transfer you to your hotel in a nice and comfortable car or minivan. Rome's airport is a modern one, but it's really vast and rather confusing. Arriving after a long flight, tired, jetlagged and dragging your luggage, if you haven't booked your transfer you'll have to stress to find out the best way to get to your hotel. The train is the least expensive transportation, leaves every 30 minutes and gets to Rome's central station "Termini" in about 40 minutes. The cost is 11 Euros per person. Once at the station you'll have to drag your luggage again all the way to a taxi and wait in line to get in one. The taxi will charge 15/20 Euros to take you to one of the hotels in the city center. If everything goes well you will reach your hotel in about 1.5/2 hours and you'll spend (for 4 people) about 60 Euros. For that price a taxi would take you directly from the airport to the door of your hotel. Certainly a better deal! Taxis are white, but they are not all the same, some are air-conditioned and some aren't. Some taxi drivers speak English and some don't, some are courteous and some aren't. Most are honest, but some aren't. Booking your transfer with us is a little more expensive than taking a taxi, but you'll ride in a nice air-conditioned vehicle (mostly we drive Mercedes, sedans, minivans and minibuses) which has been sent to the airport just for you. Our drivers are courteous and speak at least enough English to have a simple conversation with you.

Transfers to and from Rome's train station
 
Arriving or departing  at Termini rail station Rome's train station, Termini

Arriving at the station, just as you come down from the train, please walk to the end of the platform where your train pulls in. Your driver will be waiting for you there posting your name. You should simply come down from your train's car and walk towards the head of the train until you see this person.

Instead if you're being picked from your hotel to be transferred to the train station, your driver will simply announce himself at the concierge's desk.

Transfers to and from Rome's airport
 
Arriving or departing at Rome's airports Rome's airport, Fiumicino (Leonardo da Vinci)

You'll be met at the airport upon arrival of aircraft as you'll specify. After collecting your luggage and clearing customs, you'll be routed to the public lounge where throngs of people wait for passengers to come out. We cannot come and meet you in the baggage claim area, where the carrousels are, you’ll have to exit that area to meet us! Once in the public lounge you’ll see your driver posting your name. Please make sure to have my cell phone number with you. Normally it takes about 40 minutes, from plane's landing time, to you get to the public lounge. If you should take longer, for example if your luggage is lost, please call me from one of the public phones, or your own cell phone, or ask the customs officer to let you come out for a second to tell your driver you have arrived you'll be late. We have no way of knowing if you were actually on the flight or if you missed it for some reason and that is why after one hour or so we give up hope and leave. If we know that you are there we will wait for you, but we'll also charge you for waiting. One hour past plane's landing time you'll be charged 20 Euros per hour for waiting.

From any Italian public or cell phone you just dial 3358437636, but if you carry a cell phone registered outside of Italy you also need to dial the country code +39 so the whole sequence should be: 00393358437636.

Transfers to and from other cities in Italy Sorrento viewed from the sea
Tourists often forget they come all the way here to enjoy this place and relax. For many people “fast is best”. They say it only takes a couple of hour to go to Florence from Rome by train. Not considering that they have leave their hotel one hour prior to train departure to be at the station at least half early. Then, once reach their destination, they have to find a taxi to take them to their hotel. By car, we cover that distance in three hours. A common objection is that I charge more than the train. I agree, for two or three people it would be a lot more expensive, yet much more enjoyable, but how about a larger group of people? It's very common for 4/6 people to travel together: and I do not think the trip by train would be any cheaper for them. Considering the taxis in both cities, when you can't find one big enough for you and your luggage you have to use two taxis, and first-class train tickets (you don’t want to travel second class, do you?) I think in such case I’m pretty competitive.
