Experience Highlights

I'm sure you've heard that the city of Rome is like an open-air museum. Well, that's a perfect definition and it's also a very big museum! You don't want to miss anything, do you? With the Big Bus sightseeing bus with free stops, you will be able to enjoy panoramic views of Rome without leaving any detail behind and, best of all, without depending on long walks.

To activate it, just show the e-ticket that you will receive by email upon booking to a Big Bus staff member at any of the stops and get ready to enjoy your tour.

From that moment on, the bus time starts running: 24, 48 or 72 calendar hours depending on the option you choose. For example, if you activate it at 10am on Monday, you will be able to use it until 10am on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday.

During that time you can use the bus as many times as you want, getting on and off at the stops you want. No restrictions. In addition, you will have multilingual audio commentary inside the bus itself and free self-guided tours.

The tour will take you to the most famous places in the Italian capital, such as the Colosseum, the Vatican and the Spanish Steps.

Follow the instructions that come with your ticket and download the free app. With it, you'll have a GPS and a tour guide in your pocket, as well as being able to follow the bus route in real time.

  • The Big Bus stops at the main tourist attractions in Rome: hop on and off wherever you want and explore the city in comfort. At your own pace.
  • Choose between a 24, 48 or 72 hour ticket and use the bus as often as you like during that time. No restrictions.
  • While you relax on the bus, let the audio commentary reveal Rome's secrets to you. Each building has its own story so you won't miss any of them.
  • What's more, downloading the free app is like having a GPS and a tour guide in your pocket. Follow the bus route in real time and explore the city on foot with self-guided tours.

    The bus was a little late at one of the stops but apart from that the other routes were very good.

    If you can choose to go on the top of the bus I highly recommend it because you have a great view of the whole route and the city.
