How to Reach Italy from Mumbai

By Air: Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (BOM) in Mumbai is served by flights from more than 40 international and domestic destinations. There are no non-stop or direct flights available to reach Italy from Mumbai. However, travelers can board connecting flights which usually make a layover at Kuwait, Istanbul, New Delhi, or Doha. It takes about 12 to 16 hours to reach Rome from Mumbai. Air France, Kuwait Airways, Turkish Airlines, Etihad, and Emirates are some of the major airlines that operate flights between Mumbai and Rome. Once reaching the desired destination in Italy, travelers can rent taxis or use public transport to explore tourist attractions in Italy.

By Train: Mumbai may be famous for its local trains, but there is no direct rail connectivity from Mumbai and Italy. It is advisable to take a flight to reach Italy to save travel time and cost. Upon arriving in Italy, travelers can use high-speed and regional trains in Italy to explore destinations like Naples, Florence, Milan, Pisa, and Venice.

By Road: Opting to drive from Mumbai to Europe is an option that hardly ever comes when planning a trip to Italy. Since it is not the most convenient or popular mode of travel, it is best to book a flight from Mumbai to Rome or Milan. After reaching Italy, one can hire taxis or even a scooter to explore the streets of Rome or Florence or any other place in Italy.
