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.

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.

Men's Clothing in Ancient Rome

It's time to get dressed. What do the Romans wear? We are used to seeing them in films and performances wrapped in multi-colored togas that look like long sheets. But is this always the case? In fact, at first glance, these robes are completely uncomfortable and constrain movement, making it difficult to run, climb stairs or even sit down without clinging to anything.

Ciampino Airport in Rome: how to get and fly cheaply

Ciampino Airport (Aeroporto di Roma-Ciampino, CIA code) in Rome is small but very economical. This is the “native” airport of the low-cost airline Ryanair. Agree that the opportunity to travel around Europe, buying tickets, for example, from Rome to Barcelona or to Sicily for 11-40 euros is very attractive.

The Roman Metro (Metropolitana di Roma) is the youngest in Europe, it is only 60 years old. It is not as branched as the Barcelona subway, and its length is three times less than the London subway, but the scheme is almost as strict and logical as that of Moscow. This is a very convenient, and therefore a popular form of municipal transport of the Eternal City.
