Travel

With our wedding being Italy, we highly encourage all of our guests to experience all the country has to offer! We would recommend to everyone, to really take this time as a vacation and to travel before or after our special day. We have plenty of recs and options to offer if you need. Looking forward to experiencing the magic of Italy with you! :)

Flight

Boston to Rome

The easiest way to get to Francavilla from the USA is to fly into Rome. However it is completely up to you how you would like to structure your trip and so you could of course fly into a different city and take a train/bus. There should be lots of flight with different airlines on any day you are planning to travel. **It is up to you, but we would recommend tracking flights and waiting a bit to buy them. When it is too early, they don't have many flight options, making it more expensive earlier**

Rental Car

International License

We recommend renting a car as it is the easiest way to get around and a short drive from Rome! They drive on the right side of the road and the rules are very similar so it is not confusing to have to drive there. NOTE: Before you rent a car you need to have an international license. We have included the link on how to apply for it. You can do it right at AAA but make sure you give yourself enough time.

Train

Prontobus

The easiest way to get to Abruzzo from Rome via public transit is the Prontobus! It takes you right from the airport straight to Pescara where you can then take a bus to Francavilla. It runs every few hours and is super convenient. (We usually take this one when we visit!)

Train

Trenitalia

There is the option to take a train or the bus from Pescara to Francavilla. It is only about 10 minutes from Pescara so the ride is very quick and both options are very cheap! You can also take a taxi from Pescara since the drive is only about 10 minutes and is not very costly either. *If you are staying at the hotel you can book a shuttle from the train station or airport right to the hotel*

Hotel

Best Western Villa Maria

Contrada Pretaro
Francavilla al Mare, Abruzzo 66023, Italy
 +39 085 450051

There are plenty of hotels in the area but this is a very nice Best Western only 15 minutes from the venue. We highly encourage everyone to stay at this hotel for the night of the wedding. There will be a shuttle departing at 11:45am and returning in the evening. It will leave at staggered times in the evening.

For all the days along the way
