ROME transport to Airport

LESIA_M, May 2026

Make sure you download ticket...we didn't know and had to run into a hotel across the street with wifi.. Meeting area was on time and accurate.

Economical Transport from Airport to City Center

Richard_C, May 2026

Really economical way to transfer from the airport to Rome city center. The instructions were clear.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your kind feedback! We’re glad you found the transfer economical and the instructions clear. We hope to welcome you again soon!

Easy Transportation to Airport

Felicia_H, Apr 2026

Service was as described in booking. We arrived at one of the pick up locations and our tickets were quickly scanned. We loaded our luggage beneath the bus and boarded. Within 5-10 minutes, the bus departed, making two other stops before arriving at the airport. The drive was approximately a hour and drop off was at terminal 3.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your detailed feedback! We’re glad the service met your expectations and that the boarding process was smooth and efficient. We hope to see you again on board soon!

This is a public bus. We...

Dennis_B, Apr 2026

This is a public bus. We waited in line for over an hour prior to getting on the bus. They allowed tour groups to go ahead of us, further delaying our departure.

Response from Host, May 2026

Dear customer everyone can purchase tickets in advance and be reserved for the journey chosen. Groups or individuals have the same priority once they have already a booking

Good shuttle service

Thomas_G, Apr 2026

Runs regularly and on schedule. Drop off is very central. Buses clean and comfortable. Most staff speak English.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your kind feedback! We’re glad you found the service punctual, comfortable, and convenient, and that our staff was helpful. We hope to welcome you again soon!

👍👍👍 worked out great!

Stacey_U, Apr 2026

Bus was ready when we got there. Quick safe travel! You save 35$ this way instead of taxi. Busses on Otaky are definitely the way to travel efficiently.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thanks!!!

Very difficult to locate...

Rachel_F, Apr 2026

Very difficult to locate after getting off the plane but once located, it was a smooth ride to town and we didn’t have to worry about our luggage or anything which was nice.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Dear customer, we are sorry, the airport is a bit chaotic. Our shuttle service is located in the Bus Station (outside the terminals on the right-hand side) at platform 16. We appreciate you enjoyed your journey.

GoTo app

Frederique_R, Mar 2026

Efficient, reliable, clear explanation Unfortunately feedback form does not work: ie ‘Next’ button does not work. Waste of time!

Ticket given was for wrong route.

Damian_T, Mar 2026

Booked a bus from Firmino to Rome but the actual ticket it gave me was from Rome to Firmino so I couldn't use it. don't know how I can get my money back. :-(

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Dear customer if you mean Fiumicino, you have chosen the direction at time of purchase but, for your information, we are flexible in our organization and we accept also the reversed itinerary as a proper booking

Fast & Safe

Despina_K, Feb 2026

it will be good if the bus was more clean it will be good on booking extranet to mention the available schedule times

Trevor_D, Jan 2026

It was easy to find, just read the ticket for pickup location and it took us there. Cheaper than a taxi

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thanks for your support

Where's Waldo?

Adrian_M, Jan 2026

Couldn't find the bus based on the directions you sent. Tried to use Maps app but even that couldn't get me there. I gave up and took a taxi. Cancelling the return ticket. I don't have the time to waste trying to hunt you down.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Extremely good service

Hassan_F, Dec 2025

Bus was extremely reliable good and safe. On time and punctual easy to find, the driver made sure to let us know which stop we were at

Super easy and...

Natasha_C, Nov 2025

Super easy and inexpensive way to get to the city. Our hotel was very close to the termini station and the bus was the way to go. If you don’t have a ticket you can get one at the airport, but you don’t get to skip the line. There was plenty of room for big luggage and bus was comfortable.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thanks, we really appreciate your comment

Excellent Service

Kasienathan_B, Nov 2025

Excellent. Money Saver. Bus Clean and Neat. Caring Driver and his team Very Nice and Sweet Luggage compartment very nicely managed

Great option!

Tori_W, Nov 2025

Very convenient. Used this shuttle to go to the airport. Stop is behind Termini station. Drop off right at the terminal for check in at the airport. Will definitely use it again. FYI - the time on your tickets is different from the time you book on viator. That didn’t matter… tickets scanned and I got on the bus.

Rome

TRINA_R, Nov 2025

Shuttle Bus was 45 mins late for pickup. We were dropped off at the wrong location as driver was unable to assist with hotel directions

Response from Host, Nov 2025

We’re sorry to hear about your experience, but we would like to clarify that our service has departures every 15 minutes, so a 45-minute delay would be very unusual. It’s possible that the review may have been intended for a different supplier. Regarding the drop-off point, we only stop at our three regular and well-known locations: Aurelia, Vatican, and Termini. Additionally, we have dedicated staff members attending each bus stop to assist customers with their destinations. If you used our shuttle service, you may have chosen the stop most convenient for your final destination. Alternatively, to avoid any confusion with navigation apps, taking a taxi could sometimes be the easiest option.

Convenient Shuttle

Harvey_G, Nov 2025

Only one bus leaves at a time. It makes 3 stops the last being the Central train station. Taxis are right there to take you wherever you want to go. It saved us a lot of money over taking an Uber.

Affordable convenience

Mariette_d, Oct 2025

Staff were very helpful on the trip I booked indepedently from Civitavecchia. And on this trip from Rome wr had no issues but the driver was in a hurry. So we stored wnd removed our own luggage which included a wheelchair. But all in all no issues.

Great Experience!

Stacy_O, Oct 2025

Driver was excellent and very nice, explained everything about each of the stops and made sure people were getting off at the correct stop. There were a few difficult passengers complaining, however, that was on them. Description was very clear about stops and timings.

Very fast and convenient....

Daniel_H, Oct 2025

Very fast and convenient. Easy directions and bus was on-time. The price was right compared to other transportation options.

Communication re stops lacking on board

Cheryl_S, Oct 2025

The driver announced a Vatican stop and did not say it was also for Castell Sant Angelo. Ended up at the next/ last stop at Roma termini way further out than we needed. Driver very unhelpful generally.

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Dear Cheryl, We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused. The procedure for our drivers is to announce only "Vatican" as the stop, rather than listing all nearby points of interest, as the full list can be quite extensive. May I ask—did you try to speak with the driver and find him unhelpful or unresponsive, to justify your review? Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Good value

CRISTINA_P, Oct 2025

We took it both ways and going back to the airport was definitely less chaotic. Coming from the airport it’s a long and confusing walk from baggage claim and the line was huge. People buy tickets on the spot so your “reserved” time could easily get scooped up by a day of purchase. Thankfully we only had to wait like 20 min for the next bus at the airport but going home we got our bus no problem. I will say our bus was “scheduled” in the website at 6:15 at our pickup but we got there at 5:55 and the bus schedule posted said 6 and 6:30 so the schedules are a little off. We were happy we got the earlier one though.

On time, efficient and...

Jesus_V, Sept 2025

On time, efficient and very affordable. A very experience and professional driver, given how crazy the bikers are, with crossing thru cars and different lanes. Bus was clean and comfortable.

Chaotic start to vacation

Doug_G, Sept 2025

Easy to find bus, short wait to board, buses came every 15 minutes, comfortable ride with A/C. Cons- took forever in traffic to get downtown, couldn’t get to terminal because protest going on and every street blocked so had to walk 3 miles around to get to hotel with 4 suitcases, driver let us out in the street and spoke no English so couldn’t direct us where to go.
