It helped me avoid the long ques at the Vatican and the Colloseum.
Very necessary for the new traveller who has no guides to help.
Good, it saves waiting times
Overall, the pass is absolutely recommended. Handling is easy and the service the pass offers is comfortable and within reach - especially public transport - should not be underestimated. You can, once arrived, start immediately. Nevertheless, the pass has a small drawback. I would have liked hints if it refers only to parts of a visit point. This is something you can not notice as a first-time visitor to a city. So the entrance to St. Peter's Basilica is not included. You can visit for free, but then a several hours wait - under certain circumstances in blazing sun - in purchase. Here, a hint would be useful. The same applies to the Roman Forum. Otherwise, everything is easy to handle. We would always travel with the passport again.
The biggest advantage in Rome with this pass is certainly the time (no queuing for the attractions) and not so much the money savings. Ideal if, like me, you spend only two or three days in the city and want to see as much as possible.
Did work well, maybe the pickup could be a little more in the center?
In any case, it is a good thing, even alone that you can enter without waiting for the sights makes the thing gold worth. Whether we really saved with the entrance fees, I do not think so. Good too, the bus and metro are included. You do not have to wait for cash registers and machines that only understand Italian anyway! but not me! I would buy this pass again and again, even in other cities! It is totally comfortable
great thing
Basically, the Turbo Pass offers advantages, but many additional attractions have to be paid separately. At a museum it was the case that as a parent we were allowed to visit this, but not our children because we did not get a museum card for them. It was said, children do not need a separate card, as these would not be charged, which in retrospect was not true, at least in this one museum.
A slightly better description of the entrance to the Vatican Museum would be helpful and the indication that there are always people who want to impose one more leadership. You lose the crowd quickly but the overview.
At the weekend we were in Rome for two and used the pass. You hardly have to use the subway there. Otherwise, the pass was quite handy for the various attractions.
Under no circumstances should be approached by the dealers in front of the Vtikan. It is in the rom Pass everything in it also the entrance directly from Sistine Chapel in the St. Peter's Basilica. They try to sell additional tickets on each corner We did not buy one and everything worked out. Unfortunately our buses were the only uncovered and the audio was not always. But everywhere else quickly in and all well. The pass was worth it. Always happy.

The City Pass has saved us valuable vacation time. If the kids have patience for the museum that's great, the queue would be really too much to ask. Hop on hop off and the use of metro and bus was quite relaxed, although the kids (6 and 9) and I had to squeeze together at the turnstile. They only had coupons and I had the city pass. That's why we could not go to the Capitoline Museum. Quirkily, the children would have had to pay admission there, but not me. Pity otherwise I could not have imagined our Rome days any more practical. Where do we have to go? Just come in!
Saved a lot of valuable time at the entrances!
In the Colosseum and in the Vatican Museum you were fast in the action thanks to a special entrance. The metro card was worth it.
The pass was definitely worth it with all its advantages and fast-lane tickets.
The pass is really worth it, no hiring and waiting. Just pass the long queues :)
Super thing, but since all churches and the Pantheon are free entry, the value for money should be considered. You have to calculate exactly if it's worth it. The help of the staff (for example at the Villa Borgehse) was very good. Has everything worked, and you save a lot of waiting time in the queue (eg at the Coliseum)
The day at the Colosseum and Forum Romanum was very relaxed, the Vatican Museums were exhausting. For the St. Peter's Basilica, I recommend an audio guide. It is always worthwhile to go to a side street to eat, as it is much cheaper and more relaxed there.
