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)

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 best hotels of Venice 5 stars

Luxury hotels in Venice amaze not only with service and design, but also with the cost of rooms. Many of the palazzos that today occupy hotels once belonged to noble families or even the rulers of Venice. In such hotels, frescoes have often remained since the Renaissance, and Hollywood directors sometimes choose these exquisite interiors to surround their films.

Day trips from Rome: where to go for 1 day. Part I

In Rome, I want to return again and again. This is an amazing city in which every stone breathes history. Sometimes it seems that if you listen carefully, the walls of the Eternal City will tell their own stories. However, it happens that Rome bothers, and the desire to escape from the bustle of the city determines the search for attractions near the Eternal City.

One-day tours from Venice: where to go for 1 day

Many tourists consider Venice as a place for a trip for 1 day. They arrive early in the morning by train or cruise ship, hire a Russian-speaking guide around the city and leave the same day, leaving for a new point on their route. Of course, this is not a metropolis and it is technically quite possible to see all the main attractions of Venice in a short visit.
