Ostia
About the destination
Ostia Antica was the harbour city that fed ancient Rome, and its ruins rival Pompeii for atmosphere while drawing a fraction of the crowds. Wander the Decumanus Maximus past warehouses, apartment blocks, taverns with intact counters, a marble theatre and the mosaic-floored Square of the Corporations. A short distance on, Lido di Ostia is Rome's own seaside — a long sandy shore of bathing establishments, promenades and trattorias where Romans flock in summer. Together they make Ostia a rewarding change of pace, close to Fiumicino and the water.
About the route

From Fiumicino (FCO) to Ostia is 8 km south via the coastal SS296 / Via del Mare. Drive time 15 minutes. No toll. The driver drops you at the Ostia Antica excavations, the Lido seafront, or your hotel as requested.
