Traveler reviews
Rest your feet!
Great way to get from point to point, or just rest your feet for an hour and let the bus do the work. Had a 72 hour ticket and used it every day
The guide Pancesco was excellent and knows how to guide us in the best way
Amazing guide, highly recommended, real fun
Terrible service and poor communication
Have to say it was really bad. Had to wait ages for a bus then 2 came along at once. The street vendor was very keen to sell us tickets. Then got off at stop 7 and walked to stop 8 via Trevi fountain and Spanish steps. Unfortunately they was a large protest at Piazza Barberini so all roads were closed. The Rep at stop 8 told us to walk back to stop 7. Waited 45 mins then for a bus that never came. Street vendors had no idea and were very unhelpful. Eventually told that all buses in north of the city were cancelled. So left then having another long walk and taking the Metro. Really disappointing and requests for a refund were refused. My advice - don’t bother with the buses - walk or use the Metro. € 80 spent on a 20 min bus journey.
Terrible
Protests caused the bus not to go thru the entire route. The route chosen was through the dirtiest most cringe ridden part of Rone.
Francesco the best.
Francesco, Our guide, was very good. Very kind friendly and informative.
