Private group transfer
Rome Fiumicino to Siena
Three hours north, straight from the terminal to a door in Siena. For a group of six landing after a long flight this is the run where a single vehicle is worth most: no train, no change at Florence, no taxi rank at the far end.
No deposit, no account, no card details. Tell me the date and the group size and a figure comes back.

The drive
Out of Fiumicino, around Rome and north on the A1 — the Autostrada del Sole, the road that runs the length of Italy. The motorway part is the bulk of it and is exactly as unremarkable as motorways are; the point of it is that it is quick and predictable.
The interesting hour is the last one, once the route leaves the A1 and turns towards Siena through the hills. Three hours is realistic door to door. On a run this length a stop is sensible and it costs nothing to build one in — say so when you book rather than deciding at the second service station.
Landing at Rome Fiumicino
Fiumicino is a large airport and the walk from a long-haul gate to the arrivals hall can take a while. That is precisely why I wait inside with a name sign instead of in a car park: after a transatlantic flight, nobody should be standing outside a terminal working out which pillar to look behind.
The flight is tracked from the moment it leaves, so a delay moves the pick-up on its own and costs nothing. Intercontinental arrivals land early in the morning here, which is a normal working hour for this service.
Arriving in Siena
Siena's historic centre is a limited-traffic zone, so a vehicle cannot pull up outside most addresses within the walls. I set you down at the gate nearest your hotel — after three hours in a van, the difference between a two-minute walk and a twenty-minute one with the cases is worth getting right.
Send the hotel name and full address with the booking and the stopping point is worked out before the day. Hotels outside the walls, and the villas and agriturismi in the countryside around Siena, are door-to-door with no complication.

Questions about this route
How many people fit in the van?
Up to 8 passengers with their luggage, in a nine-seat Mercedes Vito. Groups of three to eight are exactly what the van is for — you all travel together instead of being split across two cars. For larger parties I can arrange a second vehicle; just tell me the number.
Do you charge per person or per vehicle?
Per vehicle. The price is the same whether there are three of you or eight, which is what makes a group transfer good value — the more of you, the less it costs each. Every journey is quoted on request, so send me your date, airport and group size and the figure comes back.
Which airports do you cover?
Florence Peretola (FLR) and Pisa Galileo Galilei (PSA) are the closest, both a little over an hour away. I also drive to and from Rome Fiumicino (FCO) and Ciampino (CIA), Milan Malpensa (MXP) and Linate (LIN), Bergamo Orio al Serio (BGY), Venice Marco Polo (VCE) and Naples Capodichino (NAP).
Can you drive us to a villa in the middle of nowhere?
Yes — that is most of my work. Hotels, villas, agriturismi and farmhouses down unsealed white roads around Siena, Casole d'Elsa, Chianti and the Val d'Orcia. Send me the address or a map pin and I will find it; if the last stretch is rough, I will tell you in advance.
