We particularly liked the Vatican Museum, which we were able to enter without having to wait in line. The same was true of the Colosseum, etc. We were flexible thanks to the hop on hop off bus, which gave us an overview of the sights. We often found information along the way in the Turbo Pass tourist information centres. All in all, a good and reliable solution! Highly recommended!

Everything worked as described. Especially for the Colosseum and the Vatican, just show the barcode on your phone. If you have to get the tickets for the other sights from Rome Tourism, it gets a bit more complicated. Unfortunately, for the Colosseum, you only get the standard ticket (Turbospass does not offer the arena area and other options).
We booked the Turbopass for 72 hours. With the pass, we received a ticket for the Colosseum (including the Palatine and Roman Forum; must be visited on the same day as it is only valid for 24 hours) and the Vatican with a time slot in advance. When booking, you are asked when you would like to see these attractions and you are then given a time. You receive the tickets by email. You can book other attractions on site at the tourist offices (we were at Piazza d'Aracoeli). Among other things, we booked a guided tour of the Domitilla Catacombs, Castel Sant'Angelo and the Pantheon. You receive a "voucher". In front of Castel Sant'Angelo, you redeem this with a tourist office employee and receive the entrance ticket. We received the ticket for the Pantheon at Piazza Navona. Among other things, we had a voucher for public transport. We redeemed this at the IOBUS Point on Via IV Novembre and received a bus ticket. You validate this on the bus at the yellow machines. Attention! The house number is not 149, but 147. From there it is only a few minutes' walk to the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps. You have a great panoramic view from Castel Sant'Angelo. You can redeem the ticket for the hop-on/hop-off on the bus by showing your Turbopass. This is then valid for 48 hours and you can get on and off whenever and wherever you want. You can get a delicious tartufo on the Piazza Navona at Ai Tre Tartufi 1896. All in all, and when you look at the individual prices, the pass was more than worth it. Clearly recommended. Above all, you simply avoid long waiting times - we got in everywhere quickly.
The Colosseum and Vatican Museum in Rome are a must-see. The organization (tourist center) on site was great and was able to give us lots of good tips. Unfortunately, 1 week in Rome is not enough to see everything. I would go back anytime.
We used the Turbopass for the first time. Everything went well. It's important that you read the description carefully. Highly recommended.
I've been to Rome five times before, but it was my husband's first time, so we both got the Rome City Pass. It was incredibly convenient and easy-to-use–all we had to do was choose the date/time for each attraction that we wanted to book, and Turbopass would handle it for us. We would then show up at the time and could skip the line each time (which alone was worth the price). The pass itself contains all the major attractions you would want to see and makes the planning process a lot less overwhelming. The only downside is that once you book, you cannot change the time. However, I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rome!
The pass is already worth it just for the timed and guaranteed entry to the Vatican Museums and the Colosseum. If you also visit the Catacombs (highly recommended), hop-on hop-off bus, Pantheon, etc., you not only save time, but also a lot of money.
Everything worked out very well. You could do a lot with the pass. The week of free travel on public transport and the airport shuttle was also very good. All in all, highly recommended.
Everything went great and smoothly. Clearly recommended!
We booked the Turbopass without a shuttle service or local transport ticket and were completely satisfied. For 1 week in Rome, all the important attractions are included, plus lots of other small attractions in between that are absolutely worth it and provide variety. There is enough choice to fill a whole week with a program without rushing. And the best thing is: you only pay once and only have to show your pass everywhere, or you can book appointments in advance, which saves you waiting time and lets you skip the queues. Everything worked out really easily. The all-round carefree package for Rome!
We used the 5-day pass in August for our 8-day stay in Rome and were absolutely thrilled. The pass enabled us to easily visit some of Rome's most famous attractions, including the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, the Palatine Hill, the Vatican Museums, Castel Sant'Angelo, the Pantheon and much more. We were particularly impressed by the priority entry to many sights, which saved us a lot of waiting time. Especially in high season, it is an absolute advantage not to have to queue for hours in the sun. The city tour and the tour to the Catacombs of Saint Callistus were also absolute highlights of our trip - very informative and perfectly organized. Another plus was the uncomplicated use of public transport. Thanks to the included ticket, we were able to explore Rome flexibly and stress-free. The hop-on hop-off ticket also gave us a great opportunity to discover the city from a different perspective. Although you need to plan your schedule carefully to make the most of the pass, it was an ideal way to see as much of Rome as possible in a short amount of time. We got so many impressions and learned a lot about the city's history and culture. All in all, the Rome Turbo Pass offers excellent value for money and is a perfect choice for anyone who wants to discover Rome in an efficient and stress-free way!
During my stay in rome, I used a turbopass to visit the city. It was really helpful and easy to use. We purchased the package with vatican museum, colloseum and airport transfer and everything worked smoothly.
Absolutely worth the cost to get this turbo pass before hitting the ancient sites in Rome.
Me have guaranteed tickets and times for both the Vatican and Colosseum on our chosen days.
We managed to pretty much use most the pass with the exception of the Pantheon, as we didn’t see we had to get tickets from piazza navona before entering and we weren’t willing to walk back to the piazza on 40c heat just to go inside (we had previously done this 17 years ago).
The tickets included an exceptional amount of attractions, museums etc and can take advantage of the amount of ancient buildings to see.
The leonardo museo by the Vatican has 25% off with the turbo pass and was absolutely amazing to see Da Vinci genius inventions built. Couldn’t believe some of the inventions he made back then and never knew about some of them! Well worth the visit.
There is use of a hop on hop off bus but we didn’t use this facility. Stops at the major sights to see.
Honestly if we ever go back to Rome, the turbo pass will be purchased again to save money and time. Well worth the cost and super glad we bought it:
This is a great offer where you get value for money.
Must have if you stay in the city for more than 2 days and want to explore it. Covers a lot of touristic attractions and transportations plus a lot of additional options.
Rome City pass for 5 days; everything was right, recommended specialy visit of catacombs with the pass; very good organisation
Highly recommended, all scheduled appointments ran smoothly. The planning and coordination of the individual appointments was also completely convincing.
We were very impressed with what was included in the pass. We booked the Colosseum/ Roman forum, Vatican museums, underground experiences, castle, 2 day hop on hop off bus and the catacombs tour. It was a jam backed 4 night stay in Rome. Most of the tourist attractions were within walking distance of one another, but it was useful to have the bus to get back after a long day walking around the city.
The best tour was to the catacombs. Our guide was very informative and we listened to great music on the way back! We will definitely use a pass again to get around.
The Rome City Pass provides with coverage of main sightseeing areas, allows to reserve your visiting time, travel easier with public transport tickets and hop-on hop-off bus.
You still need to do your homework requesting specific slots and picking up respective tickets. Make sure to read information inside the emails and tickets and visit the Tourist Info office to get all set up for your best experience.
