This provided us much needed clarity after not being sure we did everything right after taking the metro and bus after arriving. The validation of the 48h ticket confused us the most. Very informative video
Not every bus had pay & go machines. And often the ticket validators were not working. To be safe, always buy a few single tickets when you’re at a machine or tobacco shop. And to validate manually, just write the date and time in the ticket by hand.
Thank you for your comment! It's good to know, I haven't seen a bus without a pay&go on our trip, but I did see broken validators. If you're going to take several trips by bus, I think it may be best to get a pass with unlimited trips (like the weekly one), as they only have to be validated once, and you get a better price for the entire stay. 😊
I don’t understand the validation thing . When you scan your card to go through is that when it’s validated ? And if you tap and go what is the proof you show ? Also does the 48 and 72 hour pass work on the trams ?
Hi! 😊 When you scan your card to go through at the metro, yes, that's when it's validated. You don't need to show any proof at the metro. Without payment/valid pass, the doors simply don't open and you can't go through. The 48 and 72 hours work on trams, too. On buses and trams, these passes only have to be validated once, on your first ride (Nothing bad happens if you validate them every time, though). If you use the tap&go and inspectors come, they will ask for the number of the card you used for payment. 😊 Enjoy your trip! If you have any more questions, I'm happy to help!
@@rosyfoxtrot I've included pretty much everything in this video, so you already know what you have to do. you're going prepared, don't worry 😊 All the locals use it, it's safe, no sketchy people. 🤗 Enjoy Rome!
First of all, great video congrats. I would like to ask you if the 48 hour ticket is also usable for the ciampino airlink station. And last, how much money a taxi will charge for an early morning drive from Roma Termini to the ciampino airport. Thank you in advance 🙏
Hi, thank you for your appreciation! 🙏 Yes, the 48h ticket is usable on the 520 and 720 buses going to Ciampino 😊 The taxi should be between 31 and 40 Euros, and from Termini there are also shuttles costing around 6 euros per person. Enjoy your trip to Rome! 🤗
😬 What happens if I accidentally validate the same ticket twice on the same day? (Or on purpose! I'm so confused about the validation process between bus/Metro/tram/etc. that I just plan to validate every time I get on some sort of public transportation, just to be safe! The 50 Euro fine it too much to mess with! )
😁 If you buy a daily pass, or a cis pass, you can validate it as much as you want. You have to validate it every time at the metro, because you can't get in otherwise. On the bus you just need to validate it once, but nothing bad happens if you validate it every time.
I’m planning to do the same thing. Better validate it every time you use metro bus tram than to think what, where, how many times. Their system is a lot bit complicated without a reason, obviously!🤷♀️
@@Eirene30 I agree! And the trains in Italy are even more complicated 😅 Nothing bad happens if you validate every time, it just shows you the date when your pass expires. Enjoy Rome! 🥰
If you buy a ticket and use it for the metro first, will you still need to validate it once again later on the first bus ride or is the metro validation enough?
Hi! If I understand correctly, I think you are asking about tapping your credit card at the tap&go machine. You only have to tap one time, when you get on the bus. Be aware that you have to use a separate credit card for each passenger. The same goes for the metro station, you only tap at the entrance. :) Does this answer your question, or do you mean the paper bus tickets?
Hello!!! Thank you for the video. Very informative. Is Uber/lyft available in Rome? For the taxi, is it more $$ than the fares listed above for a group of 6 people since we’ll likely need a bigger car?
Hi, thank you for your comment! In Rome, only Uber Black is available and no Lyft. For 6 people it's probably more expensive, and you'll probably take longer to find a car. You can use the Free Now app to request taxis, and ask for cars that can fit six 😊 Enjoy Rome! 🥳
I enjoyed your video as it was detailed and to the point. I do wish you would have included if you can use your credit card and phone to pay for services. My understanding is that you can?
I will be traveling to Rome with my wife, my 77 year old father in law, and two children age 8 and 13. Are the ticket prices different for senior citizens and children? We will be in Rome for 4 nights. Thank you!
Wow, that sounds like a nice trip! Kids under 10 travel for free when accompanied with an adult, but there are no discounts for seniors 😊 Enjoy your vacation!
Hi! Sorry I missed your comment. At the Tap & Go machine you pay with your credit card, from the bank, and you can only pay for one ride. The validator is for the tickets, that is where you validate a ticket you've already bought. So at the tap&go you pay with a card, at the validator, you validate a ticket. 🤗 Enjoy Rome!
Hi! One ticket is € 1.50. Here is a link with more details, if you're planning to use the tap&go, I recommend you read it: www.atac.roma.it/en/frequently-asked-questions/how-is-the-ticket-price-calculated-with-tap-go
@@tanvirhasan5342 Hi! Fiumicino is not connected to Rome by public transport. You can take the trains, or the shuttles. Both will leave you at Termini station in Rome, where you will find the ticket machines. 😊
@@eddie1278 Buses, the metro, trams work with the same ticket. The trains work with different tickets, but maybe you were referring to the metro? 😊 If you mean the railway, than that's a different thing, we have a video about trains in Italy, maybe it helps. 😊
Hi, at the beginning of the video you mentioned a lot of different passes that we can purchase, these passes all work for bus and metro? or do i have to buy separate passes for bus and metro.
Hi! There are two airports serving Rome, Ciampino and Fiumicino. For Ciampino, there are buses connecting the airport to the city, that work with the daily public transport ticket. However, they are not valid for Fiumicino. I hope this answers your question 🤗 Enjoy Rome!
@@joymiller4253 Hi! 🤗 To Fiumicino you can only take the train, private shuttle buses, or taxis. The shuttle is the cheapest, while the train is the fastest.

@@ZalikhaOusou 😊 If you want to visit museums, you will have to buy the tickets in advance, as they sell out weeks in advance. You will find tickets on the official websites (which have the best prices, but also sell out the fastest), but also at resellers like Viator, Getyourguide and others. So, if you have the time and patience, I recommend buying your tickets on the official websites. Here they are: /www.coopculture.it/ for the Colosseum, m.museivaticani.va/ for the Vatican Museums, www.tosc.it/en/artist/galleria-borghese/galleria-borghese-2253937/ and I think this is the one for Galleria Borghese 😊 These are the ones you must buy in advance. I hope this helps! Enjoy Rome!
Hi, if you buy a weekly pass with unlimited trips, you said it only needs to be validated once. Do you mean once throughout the 7 days spent in Rome and using the buses?
Hi! The weekly ticket starts being valid the first time you validate it. So, you validate it on your first trip, and then you have 7 days of unlimited trips, on all public transportation means. After that first validation, it's not necessary to validate it again when riding the bus. However, on the metro, you still need to scan it every time, in order to open the turnstiles. I hope I've explained it well 😊 I am here if you have any more questions 👍 Enjoy Rome!
@@elmerperez3433 Are you arriving at Fiumicino or Ciampino? Atac doesn't operate in Fiumicino area, so I doubt you will find machines there. At Ciampino there are both machines and offices. You can find these machines inside metro stations, so I think your best option is to buy them on your first ride by metro. Enjoy Rome! ❤️
Hi! Yes. You must use Atac or Cotral services. To Castel Romano use the Cotral buses from Laurentina metro B station. To Porta di Roma use buses 38 and 80 from Termini station, piazza Venezia or from the Ionio station of the B/B1 metro. Enjoy your trip!
I am confused with the validation for a 72 hr pass. So I need to get the ticket validated only Once on the bus system on my entire 3 day trip but need to have the ticket validated EVERY time i enter the Metro? Thank you.
Hi! Yes. So, when you validate it the first time, your pass becomes active. You don't need to validate on each trip - but to enter the metro, you will need to scan it, to open the turnstiles. On the bus, it's not necessary to scan it every time, once it's activated, you're good. I hope I explained this well. :) Enjoy Rome!
😁 Here it is. Option 1: take the metro line A for 3 stops, until San Giovanni, then exchange with green metro line B for another 2 stops. Get off at Pigneto 😊 Option 2: You can take the trams 5 or 14 for 9 stops, and get off at Prenestina/Giovenale.
Hi! The weekly ticket only has to be validated once, on your first ride. However, at the metro, you have to tap it every time, because the ticket opens the turnstiles. So, on buses just once, on the metro every time 😊 I hope I explained it well. Enjoy your trip!
@@goneonvacationJust to add, if you already activated your ticket on a metro , next time you ho in bus no need to put your card in the machine as it is already activated from the metro
Is there a high risk of pickpocketing during the tourist season in Rome's public transport? How safe and crowded are the metro lines outside of the tourist season? Are the buses and trams safer than the metro? How reliable are the tram lines?
Hi! As long as you're careful and aware regarding your belongings, you're safe everywhere. 😁 Some tips: keep a hand on your purse, don't leave your backpack unattended, as you would in any other crowded city. Avoid talking to flower/bracelet guys, as they can get annoying, even aggressive. The metro is safe, and so are buses and trams, but a lot more crowded. Buses are the least reliable, but it depends on the area. In the center, buses come every few minutes, so you won't have to wait a lot. However, outside the city center, you can't count on them. The least crowded and most reliable is the metro, because trains come every few minutes. 😊
Hello, and thanks for the video! I have a question if you could help me. Since I am landing in Rome at midnight, I saw that only the Terravision bus is available to me. When I go back from Rome to the airport, do you know where should I wait for the bus exactly? I saw a Terravision bus stop on Google Maps near Termini Train Station, but I am not sure if should I actually enter the station or if it's somewhere outside? Do you have any information? Thanks in advance!
Hi! It is outside, where you saw it on Google Maps. You should see it as "Terravision Bus Station Termini". That is where they also drop you when you travel from the airport to Rome. 😊
and can i buy my ticket in advance?for example to buy a ticket and then use it couple days after,like to buy onn 17 but use ut on 24?im talking about single ticket?thank u🥰
Hi! I was planning to use the bus only once. So when I hop on the bus I tap on the machine, and when I want to get off do I need to tap again? Thank you for your help!
Recently, we've travelled by bus in Rome. We paid the travel in the bus with tap&go machine and it took 7€ reservation from a card( Could you help us with information?
If you purchase more than four 100-minute BITs within 24 hours, at the fifth BIT purchase, the "best fare” feature will be activated and you will be charged a 24-hour Roma ticket for € 7, which is cheaper than five or more BIT tickets. The 24 hours of validity of the ticket will be calculated starting from the time of the first tap.
Actually, most tourists are not using public transportation, so you are more likely to get your wallet stolen in Piazza Navona, than at the metro. Still, if you watch your belongings, you should be safe everywhere in Rome. Keep your hand on your purse in crowded areas, don't have your phone on the table or in a side pocket, and be aware of your surroundings. Don't carry a lot of cash, and leave your passports in the hotel safe. And if someone randomly initiates a conversation with you, ignore them and walk away. If you are just a little careful, you will be ok. 😊 Enjoy your vacation!
@@goneonvacation Many tourists use public transportation. I did, my friend did. We did pretty much what you are suggesting here - all good advice, and avoided being pickpocketed. So far. In general, one should be careful everywhere - metro, bus, Leonardo Express train, train stations as well as everywhere, especially those most visited by tourists. In terms of not carrying cash or passport - this works most of the time, but you cannot avoid when you travel to/from the airport. It's important to be extra careful then and not have too many suitcases. Not more than you can easily keep track of.
@@jewelmarkess I'm glad to hear that! 😁 What I meant is that the metro isn't as filled with tourists as the area surrounding Fontana di Trevi, for example, where you can barely move. - I was more worried there than on a bus. 😊 I agree, be careful and try to enjoy your trip, too! ❤️

@@_grazygyt_1467 I think here is your answer: www.atac.roma.it/en/frequently-asked-questions/how-is-the-ticket-price-calculated-with-tap-go
If you purchase more than four 100-minute BITs within 24 hours, at the fifth BIT purchase, the "best fare” feature will be activated and you will be charged a 24-hour Roma ticket for € 7, which is cheaper than five or more BIT tickets. The 24 hours of validity of the ticket will be calculated starting from the time of the first tap.
What is unclear is the ticket you use for the metro is the same as the ticket for the bus?
Yes, it's the same! 😊🤗
Can I use visa/mastercard binded to Google pay? Idw to buy a public transport pass, i just want to pay on the go. Is that fine?
Yes, you can use Google Pay, too 👍
Not all machines work on buses. As not all buses have pay and go machines.
Does the 72h transport pass include rides from/to airport Da-Vinci ?
Hi! No, the rides to and from Da Vinci airport are not included in any of the passes. 🤗 Enjoy your trips!
Hop on hop off is not good?
The hop on hop off is also a good option, but the price is different. 😊 We preferred to walk and take the metro/bus for longer distances.
Why should the sound go so high while not talking? I don't see it necessary to be honest, otherwise informative video
Thank you for your feedback 😊
ticketappy not available in my country because im american
Hi! If you can't use the app, you can just buy tickets at the machines, or use the tap&go machines for single rides. 🤗 Enjoy your trip!
I assume "safe" doesn't account for pickpockets.
Actually, most tourists are not using public transportation, so you are more likely to get your wallet stolen in Piazza Navona, than at the metro. Still, if you watch your belongings, you should be safe everywhere in Rome. Keep your hand on your purse in crowded areas, don't have your phone on the table or in a side pocket, and be aware of your surroundings. Don't carry a lot of cash, and leave your passports in the hotel safe. And if someone randomly initiates a conversation with you, ignore them and walk away. If you are just a little careful, you will be ok. 😊 Enjoy your vacation!
@@goneonvacation Many tourists use public transportation. I did, my friend did. We did pretty much what you are suggesting here - all good advice, and avoided being pickpocketed. So far. In general, one should be careful everywhere - metro, bus, Leonardo Express train, train stations as well as everywhere, especially those most visited by tourists. In terms of not carrying cash or passport - this works most of the time, but you cannot avoid when you travel to/from the airport. It's important to be extra careful then and not have too many suitcases. Not more than you can easily keep track of.
@@jewelmarkess I'm glad to hear that! 😁 What I meant is that the metro isn't as filled with tourists as the area surrounding Fontana di Trevi, for example, where you can barely move. - I was more worried there than on a bus. 😊 I agree, be careful and try to enjoy your trip, too! ❤️
@@goneonvacation This is true.
Think gave information too quickly had to keep going back several times to grasp all the info.
Thank you for your feedback! Enjoy your trip to Rome!
