Find train tickets →Viterbo city centre (Piazza dei Caduti or Porta Romana) → Agriturismo Le Chiuse
💡 Taxi ranks are at Porta Romana and Piazza dei Caduti. After dark, call Taxi Viterbo (+39 0761 225671) — they'll send one in 10–15 minutes. The agriturismo is off Strada Bagni, near the thermal baths; drivers know it well.
Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport (FCO) or Ciampino Airport (CIA) → Agriturismo Le Chiuse, Strada Bagni 12, Viterbo
💡 Book a fixed-price transfer with a local company like NCC Viterbo (around €120–150 from FCO). Avoid flagging taxis at the airport without a set price — they often charge more.
Rome Termini bus station (via Marsala, opposite the train station) → Viterbo Porta Romana bus stop
💡 Get off at Porta Romana, then take a local bus (line A or 1) or a 15-minute taxi (€10) to the agriturismo. The bus itself doesn't stop near the hotel. Cotral tickets must be bought at tobacconists (tabacchi) before boarding — no cash on board.
Roma Termini or Roma Tiburtina → Viterbo Porta Romana railway station
💡 Trains run via Orte and stop at Viterbo Porta Romana, not Viterbo Porta Fiorentina. From Porta Romana, a taxi (€10) is the best bet to the agriturismo — local buses are sparse. Buy tickets at machines in the station; validate before boarding to avoid fines.
