Rome, the eternal city, can be seen by anyone without breaking the bank. Here are some of the bargains, that are available to all. A one-day pass, including Metro... By far the fastest way to get from point a to point B... trains and buses is only €4 per person. A three-day pass, with the above features cost €11... A weekly pass is €16. These tickets can be purchased from vendors throughout the city.
For those that want the convenience of a hop on hop off, open-air bus... A three-day pass, for the bus, metro, train, and city buses... Is only €25. There are many hotels, and hostels, that cost less than €100 per night around the Station Termini. Getting from the main Rome airport and Station Termini by train cost €6.. Hotels near the Station Termini, the main Rome train station, means that popular tourist destinations are all within walking distance. Popular sites that you can walk to from the train station area... Include the Coliseum, the Forum, the Spanish steps, the Trevi fountain, and many major museums. To visit, the Vatican it would be best to take the Metro... By far the fastest way to get around Rome. A drawback to taking the hop on hop off bus is the vehicular traffic in Rome can be staggering... The horn seems to be as important a piece of equipment on cars as brakes and accelerator pedal. For the daring, you can rent a motor scooter with helmet.
Do not make the mistake that we did and visit the Vatican on Monday... The crowds in the Vatican Museum which also includes the beautiful Sistine Chapel... With Michelangelo's creation on the ceiling... can only be described as claustrophobic. Best to go Tuesday through Friday. If you can save money on transportation... You will have some euros left over to sample some of the best ice cream, called gelato in Italy, that you have ever tasted... For a more substantial meal, the budget traveler, should stick to the plentiful trattoria establishments where great, filling food is served without restaurant prices. You may have to stand up to enjoy your cappuccino and snack... But you will not be disappointed at the quality of the food, nor the price for the same.
Since most hotels, have refrigerators, drinks can be purchased at the numerous markets and grocery stores... A visit to a bakery, called paneterria, for a loaf of fresh bread... A bottle of good, cheap Italian wine and you're all set.
Rome, you can see the eternal city without breaking the bank.
