The best experience
The best choice! They literally saved us. I really liked the drivers : Vincenzo , Lorritto. Without them it would be hard to get to our hotel in the centre of Rome. They are really friendly guys! Thanks to them so much!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re very happy to hear that we could make your journey to the centre of Rome easier and more enjoyable. It was a pleasure to have you with us, and we hope to welcome you again on your next visit to Rome!

no buses
poor bus times, only 3 a day and didnt issue refund
Response from the operator: Dear customer we don't sell what we don't provide. We are sorry not to be more present but Ciampino airport at the moment is really weak for arrivals of planes and so our shuttle service connected to the flights

Handy cheap transfer
Handy transport to/from outside airport to Termini station, for €8 per person per journey. Worth checking out which bus stop outside the Termini for return to airport as it can be quite crowded with travellers, bags, ticket checks. You can get ticket online or pay on the bus. Journey time is traffic dependent so allow for this.

Bus cancelled no notice given
Don’t use bus never turned up, I landed at cia airport and got the bus easily enough to Rome termina. I was booked on the return bus at 1630, arrived in good time and about 15 minutes before the bus was due asked the guy seeking tickets if he needed to see my pre booked ticket. It was then he told me the coach was cancelled and to make alternative travel plans. This was a bit late letting me know and I doubt he’d even have told me it was cancelled if I hadn’t asked. Ended up having to get a taxi. If they had let me know earlier by email I could have made other plans. Doubt I will be using them again
Response from the operator: Dear customer, we are really sorry for what happened. Unfortunately, we had very chaotic days in Rome with demonstrations that caused the police to close roads, giving us serious problems in attending and providing the service on time. Sorry for the inconvenience

Very helpful staff
The bus left on time with no problems. I left something important on the bus. The staff at the airport and the driver were very helpful in recovering it.

Why this scores 49
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus cost?
+
Prices start at $7 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus take?
+
Plan for about 0.7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rome is not rushed.
Is Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.4/5 across 177 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus?
+
Around 62 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rome can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 0.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rome within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rome?
+
Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pizza & Gelato Class with Wine by Cooking Italy, Rome [4in1] Pasta Making_Tiramisù_Wine Tasting_Secret Cellar, Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rome?
+
April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rome?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What happens to Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Rome. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
What do travelers say about Transfer Ciampino Airport - Rome City Center Shuttle Bus?
+
Across 177 reviews averaging 3.4 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, organization. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works.
