Ciampino Airport Bus
If you are traveling on a budget then taking the bus can be the best possible option as it’s perhaps the least expensive way to travel.
But there are some downsides of taking the bus, including the fact that there is only a limited amount of space available for luggage. If you are traveling with many bags then you might need to consider another transportation option as there might not been enough room for your items.
And traveling by bus can also take much longer than other options. You have to wait for all the other passengers to board before the journey begins, and the bus might get stuck in traffic. In addition, the bus will not drop off outside wherever you are staying and the final bus stop could be quite a long way from your hotel or other accommodation.
