⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Use only the official white Roma Capitale taxi rank; ignore touts inside arrivals offering cheap rides or claiming the rank is closed.
  • For central Monti, ask for the 'tariffa fissa' before leaving. The €55 fixed fare is per car, not per person, and includes luggage for up to 4 passengers.
  • Paper Leonardo Express and FL1 tickets must be validated before boarding. Digital tickets on your phone are date- and train-specific and do not need stamping.
  • Licensed taxi drivers must accept card payment by law, but confirm before the ride if you plan to pay by card.
