Amazing Service from Arafat!
We traveled as a family from Fiumicino Airport to Roma Termini, and we had a really great experience. A special thanks to ARAFAT, who was incredibly helpful from the very beginning. He helped us with the tickets, explained everything clearly, and also gave us some very useful information and tips about Rome. We ended up buying round-trip tickets from him, and the whole journey was smooth, comfortable, and easy. Everyone was friendly and professional, and we truly appreciated the great service. Thank you again, ARAFAT, for making our first moments in Rome so much easier and more enjoyable. See you again very soon!🖤
Response from the operator: Thanks a lot for your feedback. we feel proud of our staff

Lost and found backpack
The SIT bus is an easy and convenient way to travel to and from the airport to Rome. What stood out the most is the customer service. In a rush, I exited the bus without grabbing my backpack from above the seat. Arafat went above and beyond calling drivers, reassuring me along the way, before I was reunited with my bag. I am beyond grateful and will forever remember this kindness.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that Arafat was able to assist you and help reunite you with your backpack. We’ll be sure to share your wonderful feedback with him. We’re very happy to have made your journey a little less stressful, and we hope to welcome you on board again soon!

Unsafe
Unsafe, driver deliberately tried to hit a small car with the bus because the person wouldn't go above the speed limit, he did this several times, maliciously throwing someone off the lane after cutting through the left, I rode the bus at 1645 from the Vatican pickup point on June 17, this guy don't deserve a driver's license

Ciao!
Shuttle bus to the airport, one way ticket…the listed options for pick-up may be misleading. An attendant will help to verify ticket.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Transfer Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.
How much does Transfer Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus cost?
+
Prices start at $9 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 Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus take?
+
Plan for about 0.8 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 Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 41 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 Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano 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 Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Transfer Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus?
+
Around 14 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 0.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Transfer Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano 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 is included in Transfer Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus?
+
Included: All taxes, fees and handling charges; One-way shuttle bus transfer; Onsite staff assistance at pickup locations; and Full flexibility. Ticket is always valid all day long. Not included: No specific hotel drop-offs, but from the two bus stops it is still easy to reach any othe. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Transfer Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus?
+
In front of the Eurospin supermarket Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Transfer Fiumicino Airport from/to Vaticano shuttle bus offered in?
+

+
