Rome is the worst hop on and hop off experience I have ever had! I am done hop on and hop off in many countries! I won't recommend it to anyone!

The tour was well organized. We were welcomed at the bus terminal and guided to our respective bus. In Rome a guide walked us to the hop-on-hop-off bus. The buses were reliable and at each stop was also a guide assisting with information. The trip was worth taking.

Your adventure begins with a comfortable pick-up at 9:15 AM from Civitavecchia Cruise Port. Travel stress-free to central Rome, where you'll be dropped off at Via Lungotevere Marzio “Zanardelli,” just a short stroll from Piazza Navona and Stop 6: Vatican on the Big Bus route.
