Best way to get from FCO (ROME) airport to Cruiseport for 2 people

[ghw]

Please suggest any transportation companies that are reasonably priced to get from airport to Cruiseport. We are two travelers and willing to share a shuttle with others. Thanks

We’ve always used Rome in Limo.  Great service.  Nice cars.  Very, very reliable and highly rated.  From FCO to Civitavecchia is approximately $150.00 for a private car.  I have no experience with shuttles so I can’t help you there.j

Agree, Rome in Limo. Mentioned here almost daily and a huge thread just down the board. There are many other threads giving recommendations on options.

For a private ride: Stefano's Rome Cabs. https://www.romecabs.com/

Or for a shared ride: https://sharedshuttle.it/

The vendor recommended above,  https://sharedshuttle.it/  is a shared van service. I've used them a couple of times with no issues. From FCO to the port is 80 euro for 1-2 people. Very good value and reliable service.

Please define "reasonably priced". That is a very vague term with a huge variety of potential answers.

Please tell us what a private car for an hour or longer ( with waiting time, deadheading , etc)should cost in Europe?

Well I supposed that's up to what people are willing to pay for a private car....which is why I stated I'd prefer a shared shuttle. I personally don't need a "private" ride. I've already received quotes from two companies who offer shared rides:  3 people - 110 euros for one and 120 euros for the other. There are other options which is why people should research....and why they come here for advice.

Europe? You need to be more specific.  Which country? Which town? 

 

For Rome, there are a some of limo companies and shared ride companies posted here.  Go to their websites. Standard point-to-point services, like Central Rome to airport or port are posted there.  For other destinations, you need to email them and ask. Rates are usually competitive within a given market.   

 

For taxi fares, google "[name of town] official taxi fares."

 

You are right.  What's reasonable to one can be outrageous to another.  This board can only point out where to find the prices and let each one decide what they can afford.

My point was $150 for a private car is not "crazy talk". It is a perfectly normal and appropriate cost.

It is. I was updating my post to make it clear I agreed with you when you answered. 😁

Since it takes almost 1 hour to get to the port of Civitavecchia apart from the train donot expect a low price.  Uber however works in Italy, also a good  option of course.

Would you mind sharing the names of those two companies and/or websites?

and the one mentioned earlier above: https://sharedshuttle.it/ 

 

Also,  you may want to hook up with others on your sailing to see if anyone else wants to share a ride from the the ship back to the airport that way these companies can't pull a bait a switch and say, "Oh sorry, we don't have any shared rides, you'll have to pay the private fare or we'll be forced to cancel the shared ride."

Thank you for posting this.  I've just booked with them.

Our TA has booked a transfer for us from port to airport with Samarcanda. Cost is about €125.

Check with your cruise line Royal Caribbean has a $71 each way from the airport to the cruise port and from the cruise port to the airport. I will be taking that for our September cruise but still having a hard time finding transfers from the airport into Rome hotel and Rome hotel to the cruise port. Due to the my mom having a mobility scooter, but I was able to pay for my transfers through the cruise line back to the airport on our return.

Actually, no it does not.  There is no Uber in the traditional sense (amateur driver with a personal car) in Italy.  In the places where the app works, it is by contract with the local authorities.  In some places the app links you to a local taxi service, in other places (like Rome) you are linked to a professional car service.  In most of Italy it does not function at all.
