Details

Getting around. €1.50 a ride. BIT integrated 100-minute ticket, published by Roma Capitale's tourism board.

Airport → city. €14. Leonardo Express, Fiumicino to Termini, 32 minutes non-stop.

Tipping. Not expected. And in Lazio a separate coperto charge is prohibited outright by regional law.

Closing days. Sundays at the Vatican. The Vatican Museums close every Sunday except the last of the month, when entry is free until 14:00.

Check before you commit. Not a live alert; check the operator on the day.

City figures were checked against operator and venue sources on 27 Sept 2026. Venues and operators change prices without notice. Check the source before you go.

  1. €18 is the whole Colosseum ticket.

    It covers the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine for 24 hours. The €24 tiers only add the Arena, Underground or Attic.

  2. The airport taxi is €55, fixed.

    Flat fare per vehicle from Fiumicino to anywhere inside the Aurelian Walls, supplements included. Ciampino is €40.

  3. A coperto line is not a custom here.

    Lazio law bans additional cover charges, with a €2,500–€7,500 fine attached. Ask for it to come off.
