Useful routes for first-time visitor
Of the main 'must-see' sights the Vatican, Spanish Steps and
Colosseum/Forum are best visited by Metro if you can.


The ancient centre of Rome is a no-go area for the Metro. You need to walk
(and walking is an attractive proposition in Rome) or take the local bus.
Even these buses cannot penetrate the narrow lanes of the ancient city
centre - but there is a network of small electric buses that can (see
below).

Some key, frequent routes for the tourist are listed below, but there are
many, many more.

Rome Bus, Tram & Metro Fares & Ticketing

Automated Ticket Machine
All local public transport is integrated in Rome. You have to purchase your
tickets before you board any public transport in Rome. Most people will
have a pass of one kind or another.


Tickets for both the bus system and Metro can be purchased from
tobacconists, bars, or vending machines at metro stations and major bus
stops. On both buses and metro there is a flat fare. whether you go one
stop or to the end of the line. On buses your ticket is valid for 100
minutes allowing you to change buses using a single ticket.

Ticket Validation Machine


At Metro Stations there are ticket barriers where you have to insert your
ticket to enter and leave the Metro Station.
On buses and trams you will find ticket validation machines similar to that
pictured. If you have a single ticket then enter the ticket into the
machine, if you have purchased a pass, you put the pass into the machine on
your first journey. This stamps the date and time from which the pass or
ticket is valid.


Groups of ticket inspectors from time to time descend onto a bus or
platform to check all passengers have valid tickets. If not you will incur
a heavy fine, playing the innocent tourist doesn't work.
Rome Bus, Tram & Metro Ticket Prices
Ticket options are:
B.I.T. Standard ticket, valid for one Metro ride or 100 minutes on all
buses allowing transfers. € 1.50
24 Hour Ticket - valid for unlimited metro, bus, and train travel within
Rome for 24 hours from validation. € 7.00
48 Hour Ticket - valid for unlimited metro, bus, and train travel within
Rome for 48 hours from validation. € 12.50
72 Hour Ticket - valid for unlimited metro, bus, and train travel within
Rome for 72 hours from validation. € 18.00
C.I.S. €24.00. Weekly ticket - valid for 7 calendar days
Note: Public transportation is free for children less than 10 years old.

Taxi
Note that the fixed price from the airport to central Rome applies only to
taxis licensed by the City of Rome; these taxis have the City Council's
crest (with "SPQR") painted on the doors. Other taxis, such as those
licensed by the Comune of Fiumicino, can charge by their meter. Insist on
taking a Roman taxi: they now have the fixed rate to and from the airport
(€48) printed on the doors.


 But only a few trickle into the church of Santa Maria sopra Minerva in
Rome where, for no charge, you can enjoy Michelangelo’s sculpture of the
Risen Christ in almost total peace and quiet (I’ll give more details of my
tour next month).

To come back from Rome never having visited the Colosseum, the Forum, the
Pantheon and the Piazza Navona would certainly be a missed opportunity. But
for a return visit, a thematic approach is excellent.
