By Bus Tickets are purchased at Tabaccheria with a big 'T' sign outside, newspaper kiosks or vending machines. A "24 hour" ticket is only valid on the day you buy them. A useful bus route is the 40, from the Termini station to Castel Sant'Angelo. Night buses are often needed as the Metro closes at 23:30. |
 |
By Metro There are two lines that cross at Termini station. Line A (red line) runs northwest past the Vatican , and south. Line B (Blue Line) runs southwest past the Colosseum and northeast. Trains run from 5.30am - 23.30 every day and a bit later on Saturday night. |

By Taxi Only use licensed taxis and be careful of private cars, a practice common at the airports and stations. Do not use any taxi where the driver approaches you first. Licenced taxis are white vehicles with a taximeter. Supplements are payable for luggage, night-time and public holidays. Taxi stands are easy to find. If you call for a taxi, the meter starts when called and so may have charges on before you start. For taxis call 063570 or 065551. |

By Tram The Tram is useful fro the city centre with stops at the Vatican , the Colosseum, and the Trastevere area. |
 |
Walking Walking is easy in the centre and large parts are closed to traffic. When crossing roads maintain a normal walking pattern when crossing roads and do dodge the traffic, the driver will be trying to avoid you and will not expect you to suddenly run! |
