Getting around by train Rome

The central station of Rome was begun shortly before the Second World War, it is a modern building, close to the rationalist aesthetic of the 1930s. It houses all kinds of stores. Roma Termini serves all regional destinations (Fiumicino airport, Tivoli...) and many national and European destinations.

Luggage storage (follow the signs: deposito bagagli in Termini): located in via Giolitti.

Car rental. The main car rental companies (Europcar, Avis, Hertz...) have their counters on the Via Giolitti side.

Italy's railroads. Frecciarossa high-speed trains link several major Italian cities. Book in advance on the Internet to save money on these lines. To get around Rome, however, always use regional trains. They're a little slower, but often a lot cheaper! What's more, their fares don't vary according to date, but only according to kilometers traveled: so you can buy your Roma-Anzio ticket at the last minute. How convenient!

Italo, the high-speed train, the result of the technological creativity of the Alstom group, which competes with the national company Trenitalia by offering competitive fares (numerous promotions on the website) and by advocating flawless punctuality. Italo offers daily connections between Rome (from Termini and Tiburtina stations) and Milan, Turin, Venice, Padua, Florence, Naples, Salerno... This can be an opportunity for a day trip, or to arrive in Italy from a city other than Rome.
