I was traveling with my 12-year-old son and did not want to organize everything individually. The turbo pass was perfect. From the shuttle bus from the airport to Termini on the weekly ticket for public transport to the many entries into the main attractions everything was there. We have with the Vatican Museums, but without a guide there (was a good choice for us, with the crowds even following a guide would have been too tiring with a child and even without a child almost impossible task). It was an uplifting feeling to actually pass by the coliseum and the Vatican Museum at the giant snakes to his pre-reserved appointment. A small downer: At the Coliseum we had to get a ticket for my son, because children come in for free, because you can no time reserved. This is really stupid and impractical for families. An improvement suggestion! The little tip that comes from the Sistine Chapel in the St. Peter's Basilica, unfortunately, did not work. But we also had an audioguide, which we could not have given away there either. Missed us in the huge selection of Castel Sant'Angelo, which my son absolutely wanted to visit. We do not need the Hop on - Hop off bus. He was also so overrun that not all waiting could be taken. We almost drove through the whole lap. Nice was the Museo Nazionale Romane, in particular the Palazzo Massimo and the Diocletian Baths, which we would not have visited. For the transfer from airport to Termini, I would sooner change to the train. First, the bus was just gone and we had to wait a long time, then we were stuck in traffic and then of course the city traffic in Rome tough. Back to the airport, luckily, it worked better.
The turbo pass is highly recommended he buffs the described advantages. Unfortunately we were not sent all the documents, it was a shuttle bus from the looked like a group card (were 6Pers) and a public transport ticket also looked like a group card sent, what on the ground turned out to be incorrect. We had booked the public transport ticket when ordering. After consultation with a very unfriendly employee of Turbopass accused me of not having checked my documents, the Rome trip was already well received. We always had to buy each ticket there, which is not as easy in the local area in Rome as it is in Germany. The costs for the additional tickets were refunded to us after return and submit to Turopass but no compensation for the additional time and the additional trouble. I would like to emphasize from Turbopass still the coworker Fr. Schulz who supported us very much in the fore in the temporal booking Coloseum very much and this also according to our desire earthed. Thanks to Mrs. Schulz. If you have someone at Trubopass wass Buchen avoid the colleague Fr.Michaela Johannes you may want to sell a lot but if a problem with the customer appearance is immediately argumment because you can not do anything, or as in underen case the customer is to blame. I can only say Ms. Johannes You have the right attitude !!!! If I book something for a city with Turbopass again I will try this if possible on the Fr, Schulz handle if any questions are
With the Rom City Pass, most of them worked perfectly, a little confused we were that we had to pay extra for the entrance to St. Peter's Basilica, that was not clear to us. Just 36 euros per person on it Paying is not tingling. Still the next city trip in any case again !!
Covers some entry points for attractions and museums. Of course not everything, so you still need some money to eg. Audioguides or single entry fees. The extra price for the public transport I would not book because you can reach almost everything in Rome on foot and if you use the subway it does not cost much.
The handling for school groups worked well. As some have written on other websites, unfortunately you can not go to St. Peter's from the Vatican, that should be corrected. Also at the Coliseum we had to pay € 2.1 per pupil, because we were not told that we have to register the school group before. Shame. The airport transfer, the traffic tickets and other entrances have worked great also the telephone super in advance was very nice and polite. In total, therefore, recommended. Gladly again!
We would definitely recommend the Rom Pass. The free admission to many museums is great. The organization for visiting the Vatican and the Collosseum are great. We have also used the public transport and find the price-performance ratio of the pass very good. Any time.
The pass included skip-the-line tickets to the Vatican Museums and the Colosseum, which helped to save a lot of time. However, it also included some free attractions in the list of the museums that the pass grants access to. Therefore, additional research was needed to find out which were free anyway and which were free because I had already paid for them by purchasing the City Pass.

Has many advantages, with div. Attractions but also does not help the pass and you stand in line with people without a pass forever: /
The passport has great advantages. You book the two tickets for the Colosseum, Roman Forum and the Vatican Museums. This saves a lot of waiting time. For the other sights, it depends on whether you are interested. There are many museums and palazzos included in the pass. If you prefer to explore the city, you can also buy the two-day pass and the rest of the days without museums through the city.
Airport transfer is by (cheap) bus, so we have deliberately waived. The tour in the city bus, however, was quite pleasant and the buses run quite regularly. I do not know exactly why the provider was rated so bad. The entrances and in particular the skip-the-line tickets have cost us a lot of time and have been well worth it, even if you would probably have to spend less with individual tickets. In any case, it is also very convenient to just have a subscription for all city traffic. This so-called Roma Pass is accepted in many places and we have been admitted to attractions that are not really covered by the Rome City Pass (Turbopass). Somewhat unfortunate was that we had to learn after purchasing the passport, that the city has newly enacted an entry restriction for the Coliseum, so we had to buy in hindsight for € 2 "(may be that is now in the passport with it ). That never worked, we did not receive any confirmation, nor did we respond to our attempts to contact you. At the Coliseum, we then simply showed the credit card authorization to the seller bank and were left without any problems, without any queuing. The total of 6 € (3 people) were never deducted from the credit card! All in all, the passport is worth it if you do not like to book everything yourself.
Roma Pass was easy to use, but there were some issues.
Stadio di Domiziano Piazza Navona was not free but a slightly reduced fee; the Hop-on-Hop-off bus-tour company has changed so it is no longer a light blue colour but the Maroon/Wine (not red) colour buses that worked for us.
City buses, Metro, other attractions all worked well.
The pass was awesome and contained many attractions. Handling was easy ... Unfortunately, there were minor bugs on the manufacturer's side and the page was not always clear. Still, I would recommend the pass.
Helpful
Great, if you are traveling by public transport and want to have quick access to the main attractions. A disadvantage was only with the ticket for young people at the Roman Forum. Here we had to hire extra again to convert our ticket for a regular Roman Forum ticket. That cost a lot of time. Would be great if you had this directly with the Turbopass order.
Hello, the Rom Pass has brought us many benefits. But: Unfortunately, we could not take the subway because of our 4 passes only 1 pass gave us entry to the train. In order to get the appointment for the Collosseum / Palatin / Roman Forum, we would have to queue up at a queue of about 300m. In the sun, this is no longer possible for us. That is very badly solved .... Kerstin Winkler
The turbo pass includes the opportunity to use the public transport in Rome free of charge, to make a city tour with the red line free of charge and to visit various sights relatively spontaneously (except for the Colosseum and the Vatican). In that sense, the turbo pass is a convenient option. Whether it is really cheap, I can not judge, but suspect, with a good, accurate planning to get away cheaper.
Room travel
If you know how, you really get in faster at the sights. Savings: about 1 day hire We (6-member group) can only recommend the Rome Pass!
Rome is always worth a visit, Turbo Pass I would like in the run-up, for vacationers the first time in Rome are a small guide to represent, which allow faster to get an overview.
