Visiting EUR is extremely easy thanks to an efficient and well-organized public transportation network. This neighborhood, born from modern urban planning, enjoys excellent connections with Rome's historic center, as well as with outlying areas, airports and the sea.
Getting to EUR by Metro: The Fastest Option
Line B: Three Strategic Stops
Metro Line B (blue) is the most convenient and fastest way to reach EUR from any part of Rome served by the metro. The neighborhood has three stops, each strategically positioned to access different areas:
- Magliana - The first stop when entering the neighborhood from the north. Ideal for reaching Palazzo dello Sport and the commercial area and the Olympic Velodrome. From here you are a few minutes' walk from Palazzo dello Sport.
- EUR Palasport - The central stop, perfect if your main goal is the sports complex or the office district. Also convenient for quickly reaching the EUR lake.
- EUR Fermi - The last stop on Line B, the closest to the heart of the neighborhood's monumental area. Get off here to visit the Square Colosseum, the Church of Saints Peter and Paul, the main museums and Piazza Marconi.
Travel Times from the Metro
Connections are fast and frequent. Here is how long it takes from the main stations:
From Termini: 20-25 minutes to EUR Fermi, with a transfer at Termini if arriving from other lines. Trains run every 5-7 minutes during the day, every 10-12 minutes in the evening.
From Colosseo: 15-18 minutes to the EUR stops. Very convenient if you are visiting the Imperial Forums and want to move on to the modern neighborhood.
From Circo Massimo: 12-15 minutes. This stop is near the Aventine and the Garden of Oranges, which are great to combine with a visit to EUR.
From Piramide: 10 minutes. From here you can also take the Roma-Lido train to Ostia, creating an itinerary that combines EUR, Ostia Antica and the sea.
Hours and Frequency
Metro B operates every day with these hours:
- Weekdays: 5:30 AM - 11:30 PM
- Friday and Saturday: 5:30 AM - 1:30 AM (extended evening service on weekends)
- Sunday and holidays: 5:30 AM - 11:30 PM
During peak hours (7:00-9:00 AM and 5:00-8:00 PM) trains are very frequent but also more crowded. If you can, avoid these times to travel more comfortably.
Tickets and Fares
The BIT ticket (Biglietto Integrato a Tempo) costs 1.50 euros and is valid for 100 minutes on the entire ATAC network. You can use it on the metro, buses and trams, combining different modes of transport.
Other useful options:
- Rome 24h: 7 euros, unlimited travel for 24 hours
- Rome 48h: 12.50 euros
- Rome 72h: 18 euros
- CIS (Weekly Integrated Card): 24 euros for 7 days
If you are staying in Rome for several days, daily or weekly passes are very good value. You can buy them at metro stations, newsstands, tobacco shops and via the ATAC app.
Getting to EUR by Bus
Main Lines
Several bus lines connect EUR with various parts of Rome. This option is convenient if you are departing from areas not served by the metro or if you prefer to see the city through the window.
- Line 714: Connects Termini with EUR via Via Ostiense. High frequency, ideal for those arriving by train at Termini who do not want to use the metro.
- Line 671: From Piazza Venezia through Trastevere to EUR. Perfect if you want to combine a visit to the historic center with the rationalist neighborhood.
- Line 763: Connects various parts of EUR with Cinecitta and the Tuscolano neighborhood. Useful if you are staying in the eastern part of Rome.
- Line 791: Direct service between Termini and various EUR stops, with few intermediate stops. Faster than the 714.
- Line 765: Runs the entire length of EUR from north to south, connecting its different internal areas. Perfect for getting around once you have arrived.
Night Buses
When the metro is not running, you can rely on night buses:
- Line nMB: Replaces Metro B during night hours, stopping at the same stations. Frequency every 20-30 minutes.
- Line nMC: Connects EUR with the city center via alternative routes during the night.
The night service is particularly useful if you have attended a concert at PalaLottomatica and need to return to the center after the metro has closed.
Getting to EUR by Train
Magliana Station
Magliana station on the FL1 regional rail line (Fiumicino-Orte) is a strategic option, especially if you are arriving from Fiumicino airport or from locations outside Rome.
From Fiumicino Airport: 25-30 minutes by direct regional train. Much cheaper than the Leonardo Express (costs around 8 euros versus 14 euros to Termini). Trains depart every 15-30 minutes during the day.
From Tiburtina: 20 minutes. Convenient if you arrive on high-speed trains that stop at Tiburtina rather than Termini.
From Ostiense: 8 minutes. This station is well connected by metro and bus, making it a useful interchange hub.
Magliana station is modern, clean and safe. Outside you will find local bus stops and taxis. Magliana metro stop is a 5-minute walk away.
Advantages of the Regional Train
The regional train offers some advantages over other means of transport:
- Speed: no traffic, precise schedules
- Comfort: spacious seats, air conditioning, luggage space
- Affordable cost with the BIRG ticket (daily regional integrated ticket)
- Direct connections with airports and main stations
If you are arriving at Fiumicino and have booked accommodation in the EUR area, the regional train to Magliana is the smartest choice: you save time, money and stress compared to taxis or Leonardo Express + metro.
Getting to EUR by Car
Main Roads
If you are traveling by car, EUR is easily reachable via several major roads:
Via Cristoforo Colombo: The main artery connecting central Rome with EUR and continuing toward Ostia. It enters the neighborhood from the north and runs all the way through it. Be aware of traffic during peak hours.
Via Laurentina: Connects EUR with the Laurentino neighborhood, Ciampino airport and the southern part of Rome. Less busy than Colombo, it is a good alternative.
Via dell'Oceano Atlantico: Runs along the western side of EUR, connecting it with the Torrino and Spinaceto areas. Useful for avoiding traffic in the main neighborhood thoroughfare.
Via del Mare: Arrives from the Rome-Fiumicino motorway and leads directly into EUR from the west. Great if you are arriving from outside Rome.
From the Grande Raccordo Anulare (GRA)
The GRA ring road encircles Rome and is the reference point if you are arriving from other cities. For EUR:
Exit 26 - Via Pontina: Follow signs for EUR; you will enter from the south via Via Pontina, which becomes Via Cristoforo Colombo.
Exit 27 - Via Laurentina: Convenient if you are coming from the south (Naples, Latina). Direct access to EUR via Via Laurentina.
Exit 28 - Via del Mare: Perfect if coming from Fiumicino or the coast. Takes you into the heart of EUR.
The GRA can be very busy, especially between 7:00-10:00 AM and 5:00-8:00 PM. Always allow extra time if you need to arrive at a specific hour.
Parking at EUR: Where to Leave Your Car
Paid Attended Parking Lots
EUR offers numerous parking lots, both surface and underground. Prices are reasonable compared to the historic center.
Palazzo dei Congressi Parking: Large, attended, right in the heart of the monumental neighborhood. Approximate rate: 2 euros/hour, 15-20 euros per day. Access via Viale Shakespeare.
EUR Fermi Parking (near the metro): Convenient for park and ride - leave your car here and continue by metro to the center. Competitive rates for all-day parking.
PalaLottomatica Parking: Large parking lot used during events and concerts, but also available for regular parking. During concerts the price increases (10-15 euros); on normal days it is very affordable.
Shopping Center Parking: Roma Shopping District offers free parking for customers (with receipt). Convenient if you plan to shop in addition to visiting the neighborhood.
Paid Parking (Blue Lines)
Blue-line areas are paid parking from Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM. Sunday and holidays are generally free. Rate: approximately 1-1.50 euros/hour.
You will find blue lines along Via Cristoforo Colombo, Via dell'Oceano Atlantico and side streets. Use the EasyPark or MyCicero app to pay directly from your phone, so you avoid searching for parking meters and can extend your stay remotely.
Free Parking (White Lines)
White lines indicate free parking, but they are rarer in EUR. You will mainly find them in the peripheral residential areas of the neighborhood. If you have time to look, you can save entirely on parking.
Tip: The streets around the EUR lake have some white zones, but they fill up quickly, especially on weekends.
ZTL Zones and Access
EUR has NO ZTL zones (Limited Traffic Zones), so you can drive freely without permits or risk of fines. This is a huge advantage compared to the historic center, where ZTL cameras fine thousands of tourists every year.
Getting to EUR from the Airports
From Fiumicino (Leonardo da Vinci)
Distances within EUR matter due to the wide boulevards and open spaces. Here are the best options:
- Option 1 - FL1 Regional Train: The best value-for-money option. Take the regional train (NOT the Leonardo Express) and get off directly at Magliana. Time: 25-30 minutes. Cost: approximately 8 euros. Trains every 15-30 minutes.
- Option 2 - Leonardo Express + Metro: Leonardo Express to Termini (14 euros, 32 minutes), then Metro B to EUR. Total: 15.50 euros and about 55 minutes. Only makes sense if you need to go through Termini anyway.
- Option 3 - Taxi/Private Hire: Fixed fare Rome-Fiumicino: 48 euros for the center, but for EUR the same rate usually applies. Time: 40-60 minutes depending on traffic. Convenient if you have a lot of luggage or are traveling in a group.
- Option 4 - MiTuCasa Private Transfer: If you are staying in one of our apartments, we offer a chauffeur transfer service that picks you up directly at the airport and takes you to your apartment. Fixed agreed price, no stress with public transport and luggage.
From Ciampino
Ciampino airport is closer to EUR than Fiumicino.
- Option 1 - Bus + Metro: Terravision or SitBus to Metro Anagnina (Line A), then transfer at Termini for Line B toward Laurentina, get off at EUR. Total: approximately 60 minutes, 6-8 euros.
- Option 2 - Direct Bus: Some bus services connect Ciampino with EUR directly, but they are not very frequent. Check schedules in advance.
- Option 3 - Taxi: Approximately 30 euros, 20-30 minutes depending on traffic. Makes sense if there are 3-4 of you.
- Option 4 - MiTuCasa Transfer: We also arrange private transfers from Ciampino for our guests. More affordable than a taxi, with the comfort of being met at the exit with a name board.
EUR - Historic Center Connections
To the Colosseum and Imperial Forums
Direct Metro B: 15 minutes from EUR Fermi to Colosseo. Simple, fast, affordable.

Metro + Tram: Metro B to Piramide, then tram 8 to Trastevere. 25-30 minutes total.
EUR - Ostia and the Sea Connections
The Roma-Lido: The Railway to the Sea
One of the great advantages of staying at EUR is its proximity to the Roma-Lido railway, which in 30 minutes takes you to the beaches of Ostia and the archaeological site of Ostia Antica.
How to reach it: Metro B to Piramide, then follow signs for "Roma-Lido" in the same station (they are internally connected). Or take Metro B to Magliana, then a 10-minute walk or local bus to the nearest Roma-Lido stop.
Destinations:
Ostia Antica: Get off at the eponymous stop to visit the extraordinary archaeological excavations, far less crowded than Pompeii but equally fascinating.
Lido Centro: The heart of the seaside resort, with shops, restaurants and beach access.
Stella Polare/Castel Fusano: Quieter beach areas, perfect for a day by the sea away from the crowds.
The Roma-Lido uses the same ticket as the metro (1.50 euros). Trains every 15 minutes during the day. A trip to Ostia is perfect if you feel like some beach time during your Roman stay.
EUR - Other Rome Neighborhoods Connections
To Cinecitta and Tuscolano
Metro B: Direction Rebibbia, 15-20 minutes. Cinecitta is home to the film studios (Cinecitta World) and the Roma Est shopping center.

To Southern Residential Neighborhoods
EUR is perfectly connected with Laurentino, Torrino, Spinaceto, Casal Bernocchi and other neighborhoods in the southern part of the city via numerous local bus lines. If you are staying in these areas (where MiTuCasa offers apartments), reaching EUR is a matter of 10-15 minutes.
Getting Around Within EUR
On Foot
EUR is a neighborhood well suited to walking, but distances should not be underestimated. The boulevards are very wide and buildings are spread far apart. To visit the entire neighborhood on foot, allow at least 3-4 hours and several kilometers.
Pros: You can admire the architecture at your own pace, take photos, discover details.
Cons: It can be tiring, especially in hot weather or if you have already walked a lot in the historic center.
By Bicycle
Many Romans explore EUR by bike. The wide boulevards and cycling paths make the neighborhood bike-friendly.
Where to rent: Bike-sharing services like Lime and Dott offer electric-assist bikes via app. Cost: approximately 1 euro to unlock + 0.20 euros/minute.
Advantages: Cover greater distances without getting tired, maintain the freedom to explore, experience the neighborhood like a local.
By Electric Scooter
Lime, Dott and Bird electric scooters are available in EUR. They work like bike sharing: download the app, locate the nearest scooter, unlock and go.
Costs: Approximately 1 euro to unlock + 0.25 euros/minute. For one hour you pay around 16 euros.
Note: Respect the rules, do not exceed 20 km/h, do not ride scooters on sidewalks. Fines are steep.
By Local Bus (Line 765)
If the distances seem too far to walk, use line 765, which runs the entire length of EUR stopping at the main points. It is perfect for moving quickly from one attraction to another without tiring yourself out.
Useful Apps for Getting Around Rome
ATAC Mobile
The official Rome public transport app. It allows you to:
- Purchase digital tickets
- View real-time schedules for metro, bus and tram
- Calculate optimal routes
- Receive alerts about delays and service interruptions
Why use it: Avoid queuing at ticket machines, always have your ticket on your smartphone, plan trips in advance.
Moovit
Highly accurate international app for Rome. Calculates routes combining all available modes of transport, provides real-time updates and alerts you when to get off. More intuitive interface than the ATAC app.
Google Maps
Google Maps works excellently for public transport in Rome. It tells you which metro or bus to take, how far to walk and estimated times. Very reliable for navigating EUR and finding landmarks.
Citymapper
Another excellent app for getting around Rome. It compares metro, bus, taxi, bike sharing and walking, suggesting the best option by time or cost. Particularly useful for optimizing your travel around the city.
Taxis and Private Hire
FreeNow (formerly MyTaxi): App for hailing official taxis. Card payment, automatic receipt, no surprise charges.
Uber: Available in Rome but with limitations. Mainly offers Uber Black (chauffeur-driven private hire cars), more expensive than regular taxis.
ItTaxi: Italian app for booking taxis. Works well and covers many Rome taxis.
Tips for Saving on Transportation
Tourist Passes
If you are staying in Rome for more than 2-3 days, ATAC tourist passes are very good value:
- 24 hours: 7 euros (you break even after 5 trips)
- 48 hours: 12.50 euros
- 72 hours: 18 euros
- 7 days: 24 euros
Unlimited use of metro, bus, tram, Roma-Lido. Do NOT include regional trains to Fiumicino.
BIRG (Daily Regional Integrated Ticket)
Costs 13 euros and includes EVERYTHING: metro, bus, tram, regional trains (including Fiumicino and Ostia). Valid until midnight on the day of validation.
When it makes sense: If in one day you need to make multiple trips including trains (example: Fiumicino-EUR-Center-Ostia Antica-EUR).
Roma Pass
The Roma Pass includes unlimited transportation plus museum admissions. Available in 48 and 72-hour versions (38.50 and 62 euros). Worth it if you are visiting the city intensively including expensive museums such as the Colosseum and Vatican Museums.
Walk When Possible
Some distances in Rome look long on the map but are pleasant on foot. From EUR Fermi to the Square Colosseum is a 10-minute walk; from the Square Colosseum to the lake another 15 minutes. You save on tickets and enjoy the neighborhood.
Taxis and Transfers: When They Make Sense
Taxi Fares in Rome
Rome taxis have regulated fares:

From EUR to Fiumicino: Fixed fare 48 euros.

When to Prefer a Taxi
A taxi makes sense if:
- There are 3-4 of you (split the cost)
- You have a lot of luggage
- You are arriving or departing at inconvenient hours for public transport
- You have little time and need to optimize your travel

Accessibility and Reduced Mobility
Accessible Metro
All EUR metro stations are equipped with elevators and ramps for wheelchairs. Line B is generally accessible, although some central stations have small elevators that may cause waits.
Accessible Buses
ATAC is progressively introducing low-floor buses with wheelchair ramps. Not all buses are accessible, but the percentage is growing. Main lines are more likely to have accessible vehicles.
Taxis for Disabled Passengers
In Rome there are taxis equipped for transporting wheelchair users. They can be booked via the central dispatch (number 060609) by specifying the need. The surcharge for an adapted vehicle is minimal (a few euros).
EUR Accessibility
The EUR neighborhood is fully accessible: wide sidewalks, ramps everywhere, public buildings with elevators. It is one of the most mobility-friendly neighborhoods in Rome.
Practical Tips for Stress-Free Travel
Avoid Peak Hours
If you can, avoid using public transport during the 7:00-9:00 AM and 5:00-8:00 PM windows. Metros and buses are packed with Roman commuters heading to work. Leave slightly earlier or later to travel comfortably.
Always Validate Your Ticket
Fines for failing to validate are steep (50 euros + ticket cost). Yellow validators on the metro and all buses. With an electronic ticket (ATAC app) validation is automatic.
Watch Out for Pickpockets
As in all major cities, pickpockets operate on crowded public transport. Keep backpacks in front of you, wallets in inner pockets, and your smartphone always in hand or secured. EUR is quiet, but lines connecting to the center can have issues.
Keep Tickets Until You Exit
Inspectors can board even at the end of a route. Always keep your validated ticket until you exit the metro station or get off the bus.
Download Offline Maps
Before you leave, download the Rome map on Google Maps for offline use. If you have issues with your mobile data connection, you can still navigate and calculate routes.
