Overall, the offer is fair and works: Skip the line at the Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Pantheon and Castel Sant'Angelo are now absolutely essential if you don't want to queue for hours - I didn't know that from my last visits to Rome, which were admittedly a few years ago. It's a shame that the Capitoline Museum, for example, isn't included in the price, because the Capitoline Wolf or the equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius somehow belong to it. No problem, because you can get tickets there pretty quickly. When we arrived in the afternoon, the aqueduct at the Trevi Fountain apparently had no tickets left for the day, but after we wanted to reserve for the following day and showed our Turbopass, we were let in straight away. So if you want to do a short city tour where the guides give you a few good ice cream parlor and restaurant tips (which was almost more important than the information about Piazza Navona, Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, which anyone can find out for themselves these days), avoid queues, use public transport tickets, visit the catacombs with an illustrious bus ride in a minibus and hop-on hop-off tour, etc. and want to look around Rome in depth, then this is the place for you. Regardless of this: Because there is no longer a skip the line option at St. Peter's Basilica, it is advisable to visit the attraction before 7:00 a.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays or Thursdays - Saturdays. There is a papal audience on Wednesdays and church services on Sundays. If you get there shortly before 7, you can avoid long waits and easily make it to the dome when it opens in the summer at 7:30 a.m. Since climbing the dome is not included in the price of the Turbopass, one more addition: Contrary to many travel reports, payment is now also possible with a card.

Thank you for the nice communication before the trip. Everything worked perfectly on site, I was very satisfied.
The pass has the advantage that you get a time slot for the Colosseum or the Vatican Museum, for example, which significantly shortens the rather long waiting time at the entrance. The information on the individual sightseeing options is very helpful, for example that the entrance tickets for the Pantheon (which are free, but you do need an entry permit) have to be arranged in advance at the tourist information office on Piazza Navona. The hop-on hop-off bus is included and is a great way to do a big tour of the city on a city trip, saving you a lot of walking. The stops are of varying frequency; the Colosseum and Vatican can lead to longer waiting times when getting back on. Overall, the pass also contains some suggestions that are a little off the beaten track, which is a blessing in this city that is very busy with tourists.
Rome is a beautiful city and the pass is definitely worth it. The Turbopass for 3 days was absolutely the right choice. No queuing, not in front of the Colosseum, the Vatican Museums, the Pantheon or any other attractions. The small bus to the catacombs worked very well and the airport transfer to Termini station was the right decision. Make sure you read the small print and plan your dates carefully to take advantage of the benefits. Everything worked out well and I can only recommend it.....
No waiting time at Castel Sant'Angelo, Colosseum, Vatican Museum, Pantheon. The price is certainly debatable
I had some concerns beforehand, but everything was as promised. If you want to see a lot of different sights, the Turbopass is an option where you don't have to worry about booking individual tickets. Everything was as promised and the staff was very nice and helpful.
You can't do as much as the pass allows in just one week. But it's definitely worth it!
The Turbo Pass for 72 hours was absolutely right. But I probably wouldn't use it for a shorter period of time.
This pass is great, transportation included
A Rome City Pass is a fantastic way to fully enjoy the beauty of this historic city. The City Pass gives you access to Rome's most important attractions, such as the Colosseum, the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel. Not only will you save money, but you'll also save time by not having to wait in line for tickets. The City Pass allows you to discover Rome's cultural heritage in a convenient and efficient way. It's definitely a worthwhile investment for your trip to Rome!
No queuing, not in front of the Colosseum, the Vatican Museums or the Roman Forum. Without the pass we probably wouldn't have been able to do any of these attractions, if we had even gotten tickets. The hop on hop off bus is run by IOBus... which is a bit complicated because you have to book some tickets first, like for the Castel Sant'Angelo or the Pantheon, and then exchange them again... but that doesn't matter. Everything worked out well. Dabke
We were very impressed with the Turbopass. It saved us a lot of organizational stress before the trip (ticket from the airport to Rome and back, local transport, and various entrance fees). It also saved us a lot of time, because it allowed us to get into the Colosseum, for example, without having to wait at the time slot we booked. So highly recommended and would do it again any time. Best wishes Alex
Everything went very well - except for the moment in the travel agency, because at first we didn't understand (we speak Italian) what exactly the lady wanted from us with her note. Thanks to her offer, we also visited cities and attractions that we didn't know about.
The pass was a good choice and saved us long queues in front of the Vatican Museums, Castel Sant'Angelo and the Colosseum. Rome was incredibly crowded in the week before Pentecost. The hop on/hop buses were also included. However, these were always very full at the boarding points. It is best to get on at the first stop at Termini station. The entrance fees etc. were covered with a few minor exceptions, and the price for the Turbopass is fair in any case. Some entrance tickets, such as those for Castel Sant'Angelo, have to be exchanged with the staff on site. Everything worked out well.
I had some concerns about whether everything would work out, but these were in vain because everything was really very easy.
We used the Turbopass intensively: airport transfer to Termini station and a 48-hour hop-on-hop-off bus with the IO-Bus company. Our apartment was 100m from Termini - just perfect! Without the pass we would have had to wait hours in the blazing sun to visit the Pantheon, Vatican Museums, Colosseum and Romanum, etc. We were able to get through straight away at the times we had booked in advance. It couldn't be better! The pass is worth every cent!
We were in Rome for a week and it was great that we had pre-booked the most important attractions with the Turbopass. No need to queue as we booked with an appointment. Bus and metro included. We will definitely book again on our next visit.
We thought the Turbopass was great, we were able to adapt it exactly to our needs, we used the airport shuttle, public transport, hop-on-hop-off buses and entrance fees as well as skip-the-line at the Pantheon and Castel Sant'Angelo, everything was great and well organized
