Overview

See Rome’s highlights in an efficient, flexible way on a hop-on hop-off bus tour. Choose a 24- or 48-hour ticket to suit your schedule, and then step aboard at one of the eight stops and enjoy unobstructed views from the open-top upper deck. Sights include the Trevi Fountain, the Colosseum, and Vatican City, among others. Upgrade to include admission ticktes to attractions such as the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican Museums, the Roman Forum, and the Colosseum.

What to Expect

With your prepaid ticket in hand, make your way to one of the eight stops on the bus route. Choose between a 24-hour or 48-hour ticket when booking, according to your interests, schedule, and budget. You can also choose to add admission tickets to the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican Museums, Palatine Hill, the Roman Forum, and the Colosseum to your hop-on hop-off ticket, which saves time spent waiting in ticketing lines.

Step on board the bus and choose a seat in the covered portion of the bus or the open deck up top. Listen to the audio commentary with historical and cultural information about each sight as you pass. If you stay on board the entire time, the loop takes between 1.5 and 2 hours; otherwise, you can choose to get off at any of the stops and explore further on your own.

See the Colosseum where gory gladiatorial battles once took place, and have your camera ready for Piazza Venezia, home to the Vittorio Emanuele II Monument. Throw a coin into the Trevi Fountain for luck, or stretch your legs on a walk through Vatican City.

Worth trying

It is very good, I have tried few similar services in few countries and the hop-on-hop-off of Rome is one of the best. However, it seems that they need to add more information during the tour as Rome is full of history and there should...More

Not a Bad Thing

It was nice driving around the city. The audio recordings on the bus can be a bit more clear. Its a nice way to check the city and possibly figure out what and where you want to go next.

Improved Synchronisation Required

With buses scheduled to arrive and depart every 10 minutes was somewhat disappointed to have wait times of 15 and 20 minutes, given that the opposition buses managed to keep to their 10 minutes. A simple management review of the processes should rectify the situation.

Hi, I am a little confused by by the inclusions/exclusions on the 48 hour ALL INCLUSIVE hop on hop off bus ticket. It says skip the line entrance to colosseum, Vatican etc which I would assume includes entrance price however looking at some of the other Q&A answers perhaps I am wrong and it is just a skip the line fee and I will have to pay entrance too. Please can you clarify? If entrance is included do I then need to book a time as nothing is specified. Many thanks

Answer

The skip the line ticket is purchased in addition to the entrance ticket. When you purchase a skip the line ticket you are then allocated a selection of time slots. Once you solect a time slot you must on the time that you... More
