Discover Rome with ease using this comprehensive guide to transportation and tickets. Rome has more than 40 train stations that are all connected. Consider using regional trains to move from one corner of the city to another; it’s faster and costs even less at just €1 (US$1.15). Rome has three metro lines, simply called A, B and C, distinguished by their respective orange, blue and green colors. The best way to move around the city center is to do so on foot, if possible. With enough time to spare, you can walk from one sight to the other and enjoy the city's vibrant atmosphere on your stroll. If walking everywhere isn’t an option for you, or if you need to go farther than the center, public transportation is your best bet. Roman buses used to be the subject of many memes, but in the past couple of years, the local administration has invested in improving the service. A regular bus/tram ticket costs €1.50 (US$1.70) and lasts for 100 minutes. Pay directly on board or buy tickets in advance at metro stations, tobacco shops, or newsstands. You can also purchase a 24-hour pass for €7 (US$7.90), a 48-hour pass for €12.50 (US$14.15), a 72-hour pass for €18 (US$20.40), or a 7-day pass for €24 (US$27). You can buy tickets online or in person in the main metro stations or train stations.
