Sightseeing buses in Rome

Lena and I like to use double-decker sightseeing buses using the Hop-on Hop-Off system. They are in almost all major cities. Buses run along one or more ring routes. We will analyze the main ones.

Lena and I like to use double-decker sightseeing buses using the Hop-on Hop-Off system. They are in almost all major cities. The point is this. Buses run along one or more ring routes. You buy a ticket for a day or two. Take a seat at any stop (for this you need to see a map of stops on the Internet in advance). Climb to the second floor. You put on your headphones, choose the Russian language and listen to the audio guide. At this time, the bus takes you with a breeze through Rome.

At any stop you can go out and see the sights. Then again take the next bus. Therefore, you do not need to use public transport. Buses will take you to the main attractions. This especially helps when a walk around the city is only a day or a few hours.

Consider which companies operate in Rome. Buses are usually color coded.

City sightseeing Roma (Red)

Route

City sightseeing is the most famous brand. They are in many cities. There is a Russian language. The route is quite balanced.

Ticket price:

  • 24 hours - € 28
  • 48 hours - € 31
  • 72 hours - € 35

The ticket can be bought directly on the site.

Other sightseeing buses

Next, I will briefly analyze other companies. I believe that they do not stand out, so I don’t see the point in taking them.

Roma open tour (Green)

Route map

24 hours € 22 (romeopentour.com).

Battelli di roma

Bus + Boat. Combined ticket with a water bus for € 25 (battellidiroma.com).

110 open + archeobus

110 open

One of the routes for 24 hours for € 20 (Route map), information here.

110 open + archeobus Hop-on Hop-off - 48 hours € 30 (Route map)

An interesting second option for two routes. Archeobas walks through the excavation of the countryside along the Appian Way. There is a good discount catalog.

How do I save on hotels?

Everything is very simple - look not only at the booking. I prefer the search engine RoomGuru. He is looking for discounts at the same time on Booking and on 70 other booking sites.

The coming to power of Octavian Augustus - 2: how did Anthony and Octavian share power?

In the first issue, we told readers about the new difficulties that confronted Octavian, and the fun holiday of life that unexpectedly fell to Anthony. While Mark was having a great time in Egypt with Cleopatra, the “son of Caesar” was solving the sudden problems with his brother. Lucius Anthony, having entered Rome and showered in the capital, retreated to the north, hoping to gain supporters there and to oppose Octavian already as it should, but not with small forces, but did not have time.

The coming to power of Octavian Augustus - 1: the triumvirate, 42-41 BC

In 42 BC, Octavian and Anthony finally finally resolved the matter with Brutus and Cassius, after which they were able to triumphantly announce a vengeance for God-like Caesar. In theory, the triumvirate could be dismissed on this - the program was completed, but history knows very few cases when someone who took power, voluntarily refused it.
