Happy New Year!
We need to travel (2 of us) from Rome to Perugia, in late June.
Should we rent a car? Take the train? Bus?
Open to suggestions….thanks!

Direct train from Rome to Perugia
About 2.5 hours
14-16 euros
Cheaper, faster and easier than a car

Time of travel is not that different between train or car. About 2.5 hours.
Whether you want to take the train or drive depends on whether you need a car while in Umbria.
If you don’t need a car while in Perugia, then the train makes better sense. If you need a car while in Umbria, then you can either take the train and rent a car in Perugia, or rent the car in Rome and drive to Perugia from Rome.
