          AVOID!!!!! Driver left before waiting time at Fiumicino airport
          I had an incredibly frustrating experience with this company, and I would never recommend using their service. Here’s why: My flight was supposed to land at 10:00am, but it actually landed at 9:43am. The aircraft then spent over 12 minutes circling the runway, waiting to find a parking spot, so the actual landing time was 9:54am, as displayed on the airport screens. However, the driver messaged me at 9:45am, saying he would only wait for a maximum of one hour. This meant I was already short on time from the moment I landed. By the time I got to baggage claim, it was 10:10am. I immediately let the driver know that there was a problem with our flight’s luggage and that we were all waiting. I sent several WhatsApp messages over the next 25 minutes (until 10:35am) keeping the driver updated . I was communicating every step of the way, also sending photos of proof, explaining the delays weren’t my fault, and that I was doing my best to get to him. At 10:51am, I finally exited the airport to meet him, but to my shock, the driver had already left—despite there still being 5 minutes left of the one-hour wait time. He completely disregarded my messages and left without any consideration. He was not at the waiting area so he left before this. The worst part? The company didn’t care. I emailed them twice explaining the situation , but they completely ignored me. I had pre-paid for this service, and they essentially stole €50 from me by not providing the service I paid for. The driver didn’t wait as promised, didn’t respond to my messages, and left me in a completely stressful and unacceptable situation. This company is completely unprofessional, and they do not care about customer service. If you're considering booking with them, save yourself the hassle and do not waste your money. They will leave you stranded and unhelpful when things go wrong. I feel scammed, and I am beyond disappointed.This company is an absolute nightmare! They are complete scammers, and I wouldn’t trust them with a single penny. They are untrustworthy, unprofessional, and will leave you in a horrible situation with no support. Avoid them at all costs! They are scammers, and you will regret booking with them. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

          SCAM company. Never showed up, never refunded me despite multiple attempts to contact them directly
          Decus Italia Scammed me. Took my money are did not show up at the airport for my "Luxury Private Transfer" I had contacted support at Viator who contacts them so takes 2 days to get an answer. I sent my phone number and flight details and screenshots This company never showed up at the airport. I called them but no answer. I called Viator direct and they also said driver not picking up the phone. A week before I have been trying to confirm and no answer either. They NEVER refunded me. This is what you call a SCAM.

          Didn’t deliver last minute disaster!
          They cancelled on us the night before pickup. They notified us on WhatsApp instead of through aviator which we used to book. If they had followed Viator procedure then Viator would have found an alternative. So many failures.

          Careful with this company scams
          Experience with this company can be explained in the following points: 1. I originally asked for a child and the reservation was payed with that option, but at the day of the service they warn I won’t have the child seat; 2. The service was booked by booking.com and the hour of the arrival to the airport was incorrect. This company told me to cancel the reservation in booking.com to avoid losing money. Booking.com does not refund me because THIS company refused to waive the payment. In the end, this company was able to serve another customer and still received my money without providing any service. Careful with these scams from this company! They will try to convince you to cancel booking.com

          Terrible customer service
          My card declined for my reservation because I got married and got a new card. They did not reach out before cancelling my reservation. The company would not honor the price of when I booked nor did the customer service rep honor my request to speak to a manager. Terrible customer service all around.

          Private hire from Fiumicino to Civitavecchia
          Excellent service. Met at the airport arrivals and escorted to our luxury mini van. AC on and water is provided. We soon arrived at our accommodation in Civitavecchia. Our driver spoke excellent English and was polite and accommodating. Hassle-free, would definitely use again.

          Awful I’d give it no stars
          No call, no show. After waiting 30 mins we had to track them down. They said sorry, get a taxi we had an incident. We will try to refund you soon. It’s unacceptable. They were also 20 mins late to pick up at the airport. Would not recommend.

          Happy with the service
          We will be traveling to Rome in July 2023 & I have booked 5 rides to and from the airport - all done via email from Australia. The service has been prompt and efficient. The cost is very reasonable. When you are looking for private transferes, I highly recommend for you to check out Decus Italia for your transfers

          Herculaneum and the Magic of Naples
          Herculaneum a city that was buried by the lapilli and lava of the volcano Vesuvius. The story that you can touch live, breathe. especially when you see all the skeletons together you can get a perception of the tragedy they have experienced Our guide made us experience this journey in full charm and continuous surprise. Later in the afternoon we finally visited Naples. Our biggest dream. The magic of Naples has completely fascinated us. Its typical streets that we are used to seeing in movies. the piazza Plebiscito and the breathtaking view of the gulf. an experience that I would absolutely do again

          The beauty of the 5 Terre
          We were completely in love with these medieval villages overlooking the sea. It seems like an earthly paradise. Walk their streets, with the typical local shops we did not want to leave. But above all the day that we spent in serenity and relaxed with our driver who was always waiting for us. Important thing NO STRESS TRAFIC.ù Congratulations to Decus for the excellent organization

          Extraordinary. the earthly paradise
          The best tour ever we have done so far. The beauty of the coast has literally won us over. we didn't want to go away and stay there forever. Sorrento with its Limocello, the best I've ever tasted, Positano with all its small streets full of shops with typical products. Our guide recommended a restaurant in front of the sea giving us an unforgettable moment. Thanks to our guide, we were able to take a ferry from Positano to get to Amalfi. admiring the coast from the sea is a sensation that remains in your heart.

          MEDIEVAL WINE TASTING TOPPPP!! Narni And St.Patrick Well
          We discovered this wonderful medieval village thanks to this agency. From this place was born the inspiration of the famous film The Chronicles of Narnia. Once inside the basement, the feeling was that of having been taken back in time and of walking in the era of the church's inquisition. place of worship and symbols of freemasonry, mystery. Narni is wonderful. Another medieval village is Orvieto which gave us an enormous emotion once we visited the Well of San Patrizio. A tour suitable for adults and children. we recommend it to everyone. P.s the wine tasting is the top. an underground wine cellar inside a 17th sec, estate The cured meats and cheese are the best I have tasted

          Pompeii Ruins Full Day An ideal tour to spend more time.
          The excavations of Pompeii are among the most beautiful sites in the world. I'm glad I chose this company. They give you the opportunity to stay almost a full day. Believe me 3 hours alone are not enough. Pompeii is huge and if you get the chance I absolutely recommend it. After 3 hours with the guide we have more free time to visit the excavations on our own that the guide suggests. A big compliment to this agency for the organization and unique experience
