Hop on hop off rome

Great way to get around the city and familiar yourself with the location of the sites. The staff are very friendly and on hand at every stop to assist. The multi language guide was easy to work and gave a good description as you passed by the sites. You get a good close up view of the Colosseum and the circus maximus. It should be noted that it's a bit of a walk to other attractions like The Trevi fountain and Vatican with some navigation required. There are 2 lines which follows a similar route with the yellow line covering a religious highlight of the tour. I would also mention that the night tour which you have to buy a separate ticket for goes along the same route as the day tour.

Take another operator, like Big Bus!

We took a 48h pass for 4 people. Price was ok, but the waiting time for a pickup was sometimes more then 1 hour, waiting in the burning sun with children. And other companies like Big Bus came by 3 or 4 times while we were waiting. The second day we even had to wait for more then 1.5h. We took an Uber, and didnt use this ticket the whole day...

There is no stopping or even passing for photos. Customer service e.g explaining commentary process is non existent. The actual drive around the city however is very pleasant

There was not enough buses to support the amount of people on the routes. We had to wait 30 minutes for a bus. Other companies had multiple buses available for their passengers and averaging about 5 minutes.

Worth what you pay

The recording doesn't match up with what you're actually seeing. The driver needs to drive more slowly.

Night Tour for Hop on and Hop Off

This was a great alternative to the golf cart tour. In the double decker bus you could see the city at night without getting on and off the bus. We had done some sightseeing before the tour and we found new places in Rome that we had not visited! I would highly recommend getting to the station in advance to get seating on the top level. It was beautiful! The night tour is not a hop on hop off and you get a guided tour for a full hour of the city of Rome.

The sound didn’t match up with what we were seeing . There was not very much information. We have taken many Hop On Hop Off tours and this was not a very good one .

Pick seat wisely

If you sit on the left side of the bus you won’t see anything. Also, driver pulled cover to halfway on top so those in the back did not have hardly any view.

Operator response

We’re sorry to read your feedback; however, it does not align with the high quality standards that our customers recognize and appreciate every day.
