Rome Airport Transfer Info Please

[Belleisle Gal]

We are booked on The Carnival Freedom for Apr l9 and May 1st

and would like info on getting from the Rome Airport to the Ibis

Roma Magliana Hotel on Via Arturo Mercanti 63. Apparently, it is

a 15 minute drive by car from the Airport, but I wonder if we

should take a local taxi, shuttle limo directly at the airport or

prebook. I read somewhere that local taxis are extremely

expensive because they are dispatched directly from Rome.

 

I understand that the hotel does not have a shuttle service.

 

The rest of our trip is all arranged re limo service, just a little

nervous about the "first step." My husband has had a recent

back surgery and don't want to get into a lug job to a train

station, etc.

 

We arrive at ll:l0 am from Toronto.

 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

We are also from Toronto and heading out for our fifth Mediterranean cruise. We love it.

 

In the past we have used Roma Shuttle Service and have been very satisfied with his drivers and service both from the airport to our hotel and the next day to the port. We will be using his service again this year when we arrrive in Rome from our cruise on the new Royal Princess. I also appreciate that I never had to give a deposit . It was all done on trust. I like that.

 

The contact informaation is: Alfredo Costabile, Roma Shuttle Service, http://www.romashuttle.com Email: info@romashuttle.com

 

Have a great trip.

 

Linda
