ROME to CIVITAVECCHIA-Shared shuttle
 
DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE RESERVING THE AIRPORT SHUTTLE ROME with a pickup at ROME HOTEL and drop off at Civiatavecchia Port with cruise ships?
Were they dependable and "show up" on time?
It is tempting to us not to use a private car service or cab as price difference is big!
Thank you in advance.

I've always favored letting the cruise line get me to the ship. Let the responsibility be theirs.

I just booked on Bob's Limo for August. 83 Euros for 2. They have good reputation.

We have used Rome cab before and they were great. We booked them on a priavte day tour rather than a shuttle transfer. By the way, when are you travelling?

The train is very dependable, 4 to 8E and an hour plus or minus 15 mins depending on which train you take. That is what we have done four times. In our opinion, the only way to go. However, Rome cab is very good.

fmpden: More detailed info please.

Thanks for feedback on Rome Cab Eschew.

We looked into the Train, as it certainly is appealing cost-wise & no Rome traffic jams to deal with, but after much thought, we don't want to deal with going to the Rome train station, dragging our luggage...too stressful for us this trip.
We are leaving this week & and counting the minutes!!!
