GETTING HERE

From the airport

Most international flights arrive at Fiumicino Airport (FCO); some European low-cost carriers use Ciampino (CIA). Both are well connected to the city centre.

Leonardo Express

32 min · every 15 min

Non-stop train from Fiumicino to Termini station. The simplest option — no booking needed, buy at the machine or online and validate before boarding.

Airport bus

45–60 min

Several operators (Terravision, SIT, T.A.M.) run from both Fiumicino and Ciampino to Termini. Cheapest option; allow extra time in traffic.

Licensed taxi

40–50 min

Fixed fare from Fiumicino to anywhere inside the Aurelian Walls (€40 from Ciampino). Use only white cars from the official rank; the fare is per car, not per person.

WEATHER

Rome in June

June is early summer in Rome — warm, sunny and mostly dry. Days are long, with light until after 8.30pm. Expect strong sun in the middle of the day and pleasantly mild evenings.

Pack light, breathable clothing, comfortable walking shoes for cobblestones, sunscreen and a refillable water bottle — Rome's public drinking fountains (nasoni) run cold water all day. A light layer is enough for evenings. Churches require covered shoulders and knees.

WHERE TO STAY

Accommodation

Book early — June is high season. These neighbourhoods balance price, convenience and easy travel to the conference venue.

NEAR THE VENUE

Prati & Vatican area

Quiet, residential and well served by Metro A. Walking distance to St Peter’s, with plenty of mid-range hotels and guesthouses.

BEST CONNECTED

Termini & Monti

Around the main station — every train, metro and airport link passes through. Monti adds charm with trattorie and small hotels a short walk away.

CLASSIC ROME

Centro Storico

Pantheon, Piazza Navona and Campo de’ Fiori on your doorstep. The most atmospheric — and the most expensive; book well ahead for June.

Religious guesthouses (case per ferie) offer simple, affordable rooms across the city and are popular with conference delegates — many are run by religious communities and book out months ahead.

PRACTICAL TIPS

Good to know

1

Buy a transport pass

A 72-hour ATAC pass (€18) covers metro, buses and trams. Tap in with a contactless card at metro gates — no paper ticket needed.

2

Dress for churches

Shoulders and knees covered to enter St Peter’s and most churches. Carry a light scarf or wrap in summer.

3

Card is fine, carry some cash

Cards are accepted almost everywhere, but small cafés and market stalls may prefer cash. ATMs (bancomat) are everywhere — avoid Euronet machines.

4

Time your walking

June middays are hot. Do outdoor sightseeing before 11am or after 5pm, and follow the Roman habit of a long, shaded lunch.

5

Drink from the nasoni

Rome’s 2,500 public fountains run cold, safe drinking water. Cover the spout with a finger and water arcs up like a fountain.

6

Validate and beware of queues

Book major sites (Vatican Museums, Colosseum) online weeks ahead. Validate regional train tickets before boarding to avoid fines.
