How to reach Perugia

By train :

This is, in general, the best way to reach Perugia. If you come from the North, you can get a train from Turin, or Milan or Florence to Perugia. From the Perugia station, you can then get a bus to go the the city center and/ot the school venue at the University, Department of Chemistry.

Two train companies arrive to Perugia:

• Trenitalia: https://www.trenitalia.com/
• Italo: https://www.italotreno.it/it

By plane :

If you cannot by train and decide to come by plane (and to inject lot of CO2 into the atmosphere), then the best is that you arrive either to Rome-Fiumicino or Florence airports. There is also a Perugia airport (Aeroporto internazionale dell'Umbria - Perugia) but there are very few flights and they are expensive, so we do not advice to arrive there.

From Rome-Fiumicino Airport you can reach Perugia city by either train, along the Roma (or Tiburtina)-Perugia line (please check departures from "Fiumicino Aeroporto" to Perugia here https://www.trenitalia.com/) or bus (with the SULGA company: departures from Fiumicino Airport to Perugia: 9:00, 12:30, 14:30, 17:00 and fewer rides on Sunday). Please consider that from Rome-Fiumicino Airport to Perugia it will take about 3h30 hours (or more). You can also rent a car to get to Perugia and it will take about 2h30.

By car :

• From highway A1, north: take Valdichiana exit and continue to Perugia along E45

• From highway A1, south: take Orte exit and continue to Terni and Perugia along E45

• In both cases, when you are next to Perugia, San Faustino exit is recommended. Then follow the signs towards the city center. Free Parking place is available near the stadium from where a minibus leaves to the city center.

Arrived in Perugia, you can call a taxi, +39 075 5004888, or get the dedicated app “SMART TAXI” (best choice if you don’t speak Italian), downloadable at https://www.perugiataxi.it/app-perugia- taxi
