From the airport “Roma Fiumicino”

This is the main airport of Rome (see map below). Follow the indications for the train terminal inside the airport. At the train terminal, buy the tickets at the ticket office for the train “Leonardo Express” to “Roma Termini” central station, where you have to get off (last stop). The ticket can be purchased at the ticket office, at the news agents and at the automatic ticket machines (cost: 11 euros). The train runs from 6.30 am to 11.30 pm, and departs every 30 minutes. Once at Termini Station, you can reach ISTC-CNR on foot (10 minutes, see map below) or take the subway. To take the subway, look for signs of subway B, Rebibbia direction (“Metro B, direzione Rebibbia”; Rome has only two subway lines, A and B.). Buy tickets from the automatic ticket machines (cost: 1 euro). Get off after one stop at subway stop “Castro Pretorio”. ISTC-CNR, a brown historical two-floor building, is round the corner of this subway stop at the beginning of Via S. Martino della Battaglia, at the entrance number 44 (see map below).

If you want to spend less money for the train, at Fiumicino airport take the train to “Roma Tiburtina”, where you get off (the trip takes about 45 minutes as this is a local train; this is usually not the last stop). At the train terminal, you can buy the ticket for this train (cost: 4.5 euros). Once at Tiburtina Station (the second biggest station in Rome), take the subway B, Laurentina direction (“Metro B, direzione Laurentina”). Get off at subway stop “Castro Pretorio”. As explained above, ISTC-CNR is round the corner of this subway stop.

The taxi from Fiumicino airport to Rome costs about 40 euros (supplements might be asked for luggage, night-time runs and public holidays) and the trip takes approximately 45 minutes.

From the airport “Roma Ciampino”

This is the second airport of Rome, and is very small. It is closer to Rome than Fiumicino airport (see maps below). Get out of the airport terminal and ask the bus drivers standing outside, near the buses you see once out, about a bus that takes you to Anagnina Subway Station (“Stazione della Metropolitana Anagnina”). The subway of Anagnina Station is on the subway line A. Once at Anagnina Station, buy a ticket from the automatic ticket machines or the news agents (cost: 1 euro). At Anagnina Station, take the subway A to Roma Termini Station. Once at Termini Station, you can reach ISTC-CNR on foot (10 minutes away, see map below) or take the subway. Otherwise, switch subway line to subway B following the signs for “Metro B, direzione Rebibbia”. Get off after one stop at subway stop “Castro Pretorio”. ISTC-CNR, a brown historical two-floor building, is round the corner of this subway stop at the beginning of Via S. Martino della Battaglia, at the entrance number 44 (see map below).

Taxis from Ciampino airport to ISTC-CNR charge about 30 euros, and take about 20 minutes to get there.
