Rome open top hop-on hop-off tour buses

Make an informed choice - 6 ho-ho bus lines in rome compared.

At the moment there are no less than six hop-on hop-off tour (ho-ho) sightseeing buses operating daily throughout the year in Rome.

Choosing the best hop-on hop-off bus

All of Rome's ho-ho buses at first study offer a very similar product. In terms of coverage and vehicles used they are very similar.

Especially around places like Termini Station and the Vatican there is a very high chance you will be approached by a tout in the street selling one of Rome's hop-on, hop-off sightseeing tours.

The last thing you want to be is hustled into a hop-on hop-off tour by a tout that loiters around the main pick-up points or purchase the tour from your hotel or agent pushing the tour paying most commission.

This page attempts to explain the basics so the Rome hop-on hop-off tour you choose is an informed choice.

Comparing hop-on hop-off sightseeing buses in Rome

All the operators use very similar double deck open top buses. Each passenger will get a disposable audio device for commentary along the way with a choice of at minimum 6 languages.

The main stops are at Termini Station and the Vatican, in terms of where the routes start and finish and where most staff are located with some companies having offices. Most buses have their first bus departing Termini around 9am with the last bus leaving at around 5 pm or soon after, in the summer months around 7 pm.

On Sundays there are often road closures that may affect routes and availability of stops to all operators. Most operators will operate a slightly different route at the weekends to the route during the week.

Most operators will sell you a ticket of 24, 48 or 72 hours duration from the time you start. Big Bus being the exception whose tickets are calendar days. You can board at any stop showing your ticket either paper or on your mobile.

If hop-on hop-off buses are an attractive way for you to get around the sites in Rome, you may also be interested in combined tickets that bundle hop-on hop-off sightseeing buses with public transport passes .

Choosing the right hop-on hop-off bus in rome.

Big Bus is the most complete operator in terms of what is included in your ticket. Big Bus offers a programme of walking tours daily and used to offer a separate service to the south of the city visiting the Catacombs of San Sebastiano, Via Appia Antica and the Baths of Caracalla. Unfortunatley this is not in operation currently. We offer our own exclusive 10% discount code in addition to a 10% discount for booking on-line.

Roma Cristiana is operated by an organ of the Vatican - the tour is orientated towards those with a religious interest and is the only operator that goes out to San Giovanni Basilica south of the city centre.

I Love Rome offers a myriad of cheaper ticket options with restrictions. The cheapest option is for 1 lap of the circuit after 3 pm without getting off the bus (no hop-on hop-off), others include a one calendar day (as opposed to 24-hour) ticket and a 5 hour ticket.

If you do not need a the hop-on, hop off facility and just want to ride the bus one lap of the tour route you can save money by buying one lap tickets without hop-on or hop-off from I Love Rome and Roma Cristiana.

If you have a full day to sightsee you can save money by buying a one calendar day ticket rather than a 24-hour ticket available from I Love Rome, Panoramic and Roma Cristiana.

If you have kids it is worth looking at age bands for child fares, the different operators have significant differences in rules for age bands for children.

London’s ‘only live guided’ open-top bus operator sacks its tour guides for computers

A London open-top bus firm that marketed itself as the only operator in the City with a “live guide” has quietly sacked nearly all of its tour guides and replaced them with computers, City A.M. has learned.

Topview , a New York-based tourism firm with operations in London, laid off around 70 of its UK-based guide last week and has now rolled out recorded audio in their place, former staff told City A.M.

Until City A.M. approached the firm yesterday, it was still selling tickets to tourists at up to £55 for a day’s bus pass and touting itself as “the only hop-on hop-off bus with live guide in London”. The claim has since been removed from its website.

The layoffs have impacted around 30 full-time staff and 40 agency workers at the London open-top bus group, one former agency worker said.

“Their USP was every bus had a live guide, but they have just sacked more than 50 guides with days’ notice and left tourists with just computerised audio,” the former worker told City A.M. 

“The tour is the most expensive in London at £55 a head. We are all so angry.”

In a letter sent to staff on the 30th April, general manager Adrian Carter said the company had made the decision to invest in a “multilingual audio system rather than stay with English only commentary”.

“The system currently offers a number of features that we believe will continue to provide the quality we require,” Carter wrote, adding that the company would maintain a “small team of guides who have been selected using a scoring criteria”.

“It is with regret therefore that I am writing to confirm notice to terminate your employment due to redundancy,” he added.

Staff were given seven days’ notice in line with their contracts, Topview said.

In a statement to City A.M , the company said it had received feedback from customers saying “they would like to see our tour commentary offered in different languages”.

“Consequently, we have recently launched audio commentary in 14 languages on our daytime sightseeing bus routes,” the firm said. 

“We continue to provide live tour guides on our recently launched Night Tour as well as on all our walking tours as we believe the guides enhance customer experience for these products. Our website and printed materials have been updated accordingly to reflect this change.”

Russell Hookey looks back on a momentous day for Ipswich Town fans

Thousands of fans gathered in Ipswich for a bus parade and heroes' welcome - after their club secured a return to the Premier League for the first time in 22 years.

The Blues were promoted after Saturday’s 2-0 victory over Huddersfield Town - with fans invading the pitch at Portman Road afterwards.

Donovan Blake sent this report from Christchurch Park.

On the third day of celebrations on Bank Holiday Monday, an open-top bus parade made its way from the stadium, through the town, and onto Christchurch Park.

Manager Kieran McKenna and the players then addressed supporters from the bus before heading off to continue the celebrations at their end of season dinner.

Premier League promotion is likely to bring with it a huge financial boost to the whole town, with one business leader quoting the prize as £600 million.

Terry Baxter, who represents local businesses in Ipswich Central Business Improvement District, said the financial and emotional benefits will be "massive".
