The spirit of Roma
Hi! im a 23 year old female backpacking solo my way around italy in july. My Flight back home from rome departs at 8:30am. Im having trouble figuring out what time i should be out of the hostel and on the train. And do trains from termini train station run all nite to the airport??? or should i find a hotel near the airport the last nite???
Appreciate your help
The first train departs from Termini at 05:52, and the trip takes 35 minutes, putting you at the airport about 06:30, which should be plenty of time for your 8:30 flight (at 6:30, the airport is just starting to wake up).
See http://www.adr.it/content.asp?Subc=1361&L=3&idMen=731 for info on the Leonardo Express. Note that it costs 11 euro, sort of pricey, since it is considered 1st class.
We have discussed this issue of where to stay the last night, and we generally agree that you ought to have a lot of fun your last night in Rome, and just plan on getting up early, rather than staying at a hotel out at the airport, which will be both expensive and boring.
I would suggest that you stop by Termini the day before and buy your train ticket - that way you don't have to mess with it in the morning. All you will need to do, then, is validate it the morning you are leaving (in the machine near the tracks) and hop on the train. The trains run every 30 minutes, so if you miss the 05:52, then next one leaves at 06:22 which gets in about 06:57...still may be enough time (but use this only as a back up - make sure you try for the earlier train).

P.S. stopping by Termini the day before also lets you figure out which track goes to the airport...they keep moving it, and sometimes the Leonardo Express is on a track that is quite a walk from the main terminal...better to locate it when you are NOT in a hurry ;-)
P.P.S. I am assuming that you are leaving from Fiumicino airport...if you are leaving from Ciampino, we have to start over again, as there is no direct train...
Bill
thanks alot!! =]
ciao, your airport is "Fiumicino"? if so the reply you have had is perfect but if it is Ciampino it is a different problem. probably your airport is "fiumicino but please, chek it.
Ciao

Accidentally discovered by 2 soldiers about 2 thousand years ago, fountain began to look a little bit different nowadays...
This place is ALWAYS overcrowded, and yes, it's understood. Fountain is really great! Don't try to make a good picture, better buy a postcard with Trevi Fountain in souvenirs shop.
In front of the church of St.Susanna, in Piazza San Bernardo there is the church of San Bernardo alle Terme (church of St.Bernard at the Baths of Diocletian).
The church was built in 1598 in one of the spherical tower of the external perimeter of the Baths of Diocletian thanks to Caterina Sforza di Santafiora.
The structure of San Bernardo alle Terme is cylindrical and it is very similar to the Pantheon with a dome and an oculus. The building has a diameter of 22 metersand the decorations of the dome decoration is made with octagonal coffers.
Inside you can see eight statues of saints made by Camillo Mariani (1600). In the Chapel of St Francis there is a sculpture of the saint made by Giacomo Antonio Fancelli.
More 'live' entertainment staged at the Castello Odescalchi di Bracciano.
If money is not a problem for you, then I would like to highly recommend this castle in the Castelli Romani region.

It s a nice, smal and busy place close to Fontana de Trive.
Excellent service - great atmospere.
The reataurantpart of the place opens after 19 o clock - however, there is always the possibility of starting out with a glas of wine.
FANTASTIC pizzas!!! One glas of chianti classico and a gorganzola and rucula pizza.....
La Bocca della Verita, or "The Mouth of Truth," is one of those stops everybody should see in Rome, but it's also an obvious tourist trap. But at least there's no admission. The only trick is seeing when it's open. I went to see it when it was supposed to be open, but the gate was locked when we arrived, so we had to view it through metal bars. However, as such a huge fan of the movie Roman Holiday, I had to see it nonetheless.
