My daughter and I used limoservicerome. The driver was at the airport to meet us. Very personable young man who spoke English and most of all a very good driver. I arranged immediately for this same young man to be the one to take us for our return trip home. I cannot recommend this service highly enough. After a long flight there is nothing like knowing how you will get into Rome and someone right there to meet you.

Actually, I was talking specifically about Romeshuttle limousine, as opposed to limoservicerome, which is a bit more expensive. Anyone tried Romeshuttle limousine?

E-mail for services I used are: [email protected] and [email protected]. Have fun.

Sorry I did not preview and spelt limousine incorrectly. Should be [email protected].

loriw,

We have emailed the following:

Limoservice Rome. www.limoservicerome.com
Roma Shuttle Service [email protected]
[email protected]

(They are so much alike!)

We decided to go with Roma Shuttle Service.

romeshuttlelimousine.com had a hard time understanding that I needed to go from my apartment TO the airport! They kept sending me things saying they would be at ARRIVALS. After several emails (and their price rose 10 Euros) we decided to go with the one that understood what we wanted the first time.

I think all of them have good reviews; just trust your gut feelings and read the reviews. You can google them and also search here (if the search function is in the mood to search!)

good luck,
Carol

I travelled with Driver in Italy their drivers are all fluent in English and very reliable. It is owned by an italian/canadian. They charge 80 euros and no extra costs. Their web -site is www.driverinitaly.com

MiAmor - You paid € 80 ???

No extra costs?? I should hope not! I'd expect a complimentary bottle of spumante and a case of Brunello di Montalcino if I'd paid that much :)

And this is your post on Fodors? Hmmm - I wonder ;)

I also vote for LimoService Rome!

I had arranged all of our airport transfers (3 set of parties arriving
at different times) as well as transfers from Rome to the port to catch a cruise ship. Limo Service Rome was VERY professional, sending only
drivers with coat a ties, polite and always earlier than requested so as
to not make us wait.

All correspondence was done with email and their rates were one of the
lowest advertised. Much cheaper than using a taxi service. We had 7
adults to transfer to the port and then from the port to our hotel near
the airport. With luggage, they were able to transport us all in a
small van for only 140 Euro's each way. Our transfer from the airport to
our hotel in Rome was only 45 Euro's. I heard one passenger say he
paid 65 Euro's for a taxi for the same trip.

I would definately use them again if I returned to Rome.
