Travelling to Rome by train

Hi everyone,

Quick Q- anyone travel recently from the port of Civitavecchia To Rome by train? How much does it cost for each adult and how long does it take each way?

A bit confused with the different types of trains available, not sure which one to take.

Thx for your help!

Happy cruising!!

A quick search finds the Trenitalia website, here:

http://www.trenitalia.com/

shows it takes anywhere from 45 minutes to about 90 minutes, and price is as low as 9 euro. Price will depend on how far in advance you buy your ticket.

You can take any train that meets your needs.

LOTS of info on this board as to all the trains and costs if you just do a little searching.

Takes about an hour. Some faster trains (45m), some slightly slower (70m). Prices start at €5; but if you're just there for a day buy a BIRG ticket €12 ?(something like that) which also includes buses/metro in Rome as well as the return train fare

Also, while the slightly slower trains might seem like a bad idea, they may have the advantage of stopping at a more convenient station than Termini. (like Roma S.Pietro). Depends a lot on what you're doing/where you're going.

Thx for the replies and helpful info, I'm interested in just going to St. Peter's square and the Vatican museum.

So from what I have been reading. I have to get off at San Pietro station right?

Good tip about the BIRG ticket....is it easy buy them from the ticket machines or should i go to the window?

Yes, you should get off at San Pietro for the Vatican/St. Peters.

I'm not sure if the BIRG is available in machines. Used to be they were not, but perhaps things have changed in the last 18 months or so..... I always buy one at a shop enroute to the station to avoid the lines at the ticket window.
