Many people in the queue even it was an hour before start. The bus was driven way to fast, no photo stops or any possibilities to get some beautiful snapshots at night. many many construction sites, so not much to see. Better you do the hop on hop off on day and visit sights by feet at night

Bell'itinerario che tocca alcuni dei punti importanti del centro di Roma. L'orario del tramonto è il più bello e affascinante, soprattutto in estate con il tetto del bus all'aperto. Ottima accoglienza del personale. Suggerisco di inserire, al momento della prenotazione e dell'acquisto dei biglietti, la scelta dei posti sul bus, in modo da non creare caos al momento della salita.

Take in scenic views

Climb to the upper deck of your sightseeing tour bus for the best views of the city. The twinkling lights, the noise of traffic and chatter, and the wind in your hair make for the most immersive way to soak up a city’s culture and community.

Added perks

Most panoramic tour operators provide additional onboard amenities to elevate your experience. Free Wi-Fi, audio guides in multiple languages, and complimentary headphones are a few of the perks you will get access to with a panoramic night tour ticket.

How to choose the right night tour for you

Both Big Bus and City Sightseeing offer premium services, cover important landmarks, and provide additional perks to elevate your night tour experience. However, here are some factors you should consider before deciding on the right panoramic night tour for you.

Budget: If you’re traveling on a strict budget, a single euro could make a big difference to your choice of tour. While Big Bus and City Sightseeing both offer similarly priced passes, the City Sightseeing Rome Night Tour is the more affordable option for travelers on a budget.
Accessibility: Both Big Bus and City Sightseeing buses are wheelchair and pram/stroller accessible. We recommend contacting the operators a few days before your trip so they can accommodate your needs better.
Family ticket: If you’re traveling with your children, consider getting the Big Bus Rome night tour family ticket, which is valid for use by two adults and two children.
Audio guide languages: Big Bus Rome night tours offer audio guides in 7 languages, while the City Sightseeing tours offer 8 languages. Check out the list of languages offered by both operators and pick the one best suited to your needs.

Does the Rome night bus tour stop at major attractions?

No, the Rome night bus tours are not hop-on hop-off tours. They are non-stop panoramic tours that do not stop at any major attractions.

Can I hop off at popular attractions and resume my journey at a later time?

No, you can’t. Once you board the bus, you cannot hop off or on until the length of the journey is finished. If you want to get down and explore attractions, consider booking a hop-on hop-off tour.

What sights will I see on the Rome night bus tour?

From the Colosseum to Vatican City, from the Spanish Steps to the Roman Forum, this tour takes you past plenty of iconic landmarks in the city.

Are the Rome night bus tours wheelchair-accessible?

Yes, they are. However, we recommend getting in touch with the operator before your trip to make sure they can accommodate your needs as best as they can.

Do I need to purchase separate tickets for my kids?

Yes, you do. However, very young children can hop on for free, provided they don’t require their own seat.

Are the panoramic night bus tours in Rome suited for seniors?

Yes, these night tours are suitable for people of all ages. However, if you struggle with mobility issues or spinal issues, we advise against climbing to the top deck as it could aggravate your condition. There are plenty of comfortable seats on the lower deck that you could take instead.

It was a relaxing way to see many sights and orient ourselves in such a big city. The ability to get off to explore and pick up another bus to continue was so useful. Best views are upstairs but that can be hot!!

For the first time I purchased the Omnia Card and Roma pass package, once you understand where you can book the various museum admissions, the road is all downhill. Very kind at the ORP point where the cards are activated, they gave us great advice.
