How do I book private transportation in Rome?

Send a message to the AYR Concierge concierge with your pickup location, destination, date, time and number of passengers. We confirm the vehicle and a trusted local chauffeur — usually within thirty minutes — and handle every detail until you arrive.

Can I arrange a last-minute private transfer in Rome?

Yes. Same-day requests in Rome are handled by our local partner network. Lead time is typically two to four hours, depending on the vehicle category and the time of day. Write to the concierge and we'll confirm availability immediately.

What is the best way to travel from Rome Fiumicino (FCO) to Rome?

A pre-arranged private transfer is the most discreet option. The chauffeur meets you airside or in arrivals with a personalised sign, handles your luggage, and drives you directly to your hotel or residence — no queues, no negotiation, no language friction.

Is a Mercedes V-Class available in Rome?

Yes. The V-Class is the default choice in Rome for groups of three to seven passengers, for families travelling with luggage, and for transfers continuing on to Lake Como or other destinations. An S-Class executive sedan is available for one or two passengers who prefer a lower profile.

Yes. The concierge replies in your own language — English, Italian, French, German, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Portuguese and Russian among others. Chauffeurs are briefed in advance on any language preferences.

Can I request transportation for multiple destinations during the same day?

Yes. Multi-stop itineraries are arranged as a single full-day or half-day chauffeur engagement. One vehicle, one driver, one quotation — your schedule is followed as it evolves through the day.

Can I request a chauffeur for an entire day in Rome?

Yes. Full-day chauffeur (typically up to ten hours, with overtime available) covers any combination of meetings, sightseeing, shopping or dining. The driver remains assigned to you throughout.

Fiumicino: a long-haul arrival, handled quietly

Inside-terminal meet, luggage handled, departure in fifteen minutes.

Fiumicino — Leonardo da Vinci International — is the natural arrival point for long-haul travellers to Rome. The chauffeur waits inside the arrivals hall with a discreet sign. Luggage moves directly to the vehicle. The car leaves within fifteen minutes.

From the airport to the centre is forty minutes in typical traffic. The route via the Grande Raccordo Anulare is faster off-peak; via the Via Cristoforo Colombo is more direct in the morning.
