There are five main modes of transportation from Rome Airport to Vatican City: taxi, private transfer, express train, regional train, or bus. The fastest and most convenient choices are to take an airport taxi or Rome Airport transfer, as the journey takes just 30 minutes and the services are door-to-door.
Alternatively, you can travel by bus. The SIT Bus is a direct shuttle service connecting the airport and the Vatican City and is the cheapest public transportation option. You can also take one of two train routes although neither are direct. You can either take the Leonardo Express and hop on the metro, or you can take two regional trains to get there. Both of these options are more expensive than the bus and can take much longer as you’ll have to make at least one change.
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Rome at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
