#Sta rita de cascia driver

Rita, one of the Catholic Church's most important intercessors for difficult (impossible) situations, particularly domestic situations, lies in repose in a amazing well-preserved condition in a glass case inside this lovely small basilica. The trip to Casia is an out-of-the-way excursion, but it is a beautiful drive and the end result is a lovely small town, set among gentle mountains, lush pines and blooming roses. You can check the schedule as listed on the door of the monastery. If you wish to visit the monastery and check the miraculous vine that Ste Rita planted and other personal stuff of the Sainte, the monastery opens its doors at very specific times. It is not bad if you like to try local cuisine.

There is a small self service restaurant and bar facing the sanctuary of Roccaporena.

A driver will get you there and then come back to pick you up later for 5 euros per passenger. If you wish to visit Sainte Rita's hometown, Roccaporena, just go to the hotel Delle Rose and ask at the reception for a transfer to Roccaporena. Once there, it is easy to find your way to the Basilica and monastery. At Serravalle, some passengers might change buses but you have to stay in the same bus. The round trip costs 14 euros per passenger. You will get the chance to buy the tickets once the bus reaches the Terni bus station exactly an hour and a half after departure. Once there, just tell the driver that you are going to Cascia and hop on. It is not possible to buy the tickets ahead but don't worry. So it is recommended you be there at least 15 min before. Everyday except Sundays, there is a Sulga (Name of the bus company) bus that leaves the station at exactly 7:30 am to Cascia. Once you get to Tiburtina station get out of the station and cross the road to the Bus station.

If you are located near Termini station just take the metro line B to get there. The best option is to get to Tiburtina Train and Metro Station. You might consider taking a private shuttle or taxi but it will be very costly (around 600 euros). If you are in Rome and planning to visit Sainte Rita's Monastery in Cascia, you might find it a bit challenging to make arrangements.
