FAQ
The most Frequently Asked Questions regarding the Rome Tourist Card.
How can I visit the Sistine Chapel?
The Sistine Chapel is included in the Vatican Museum and is one of the items in the museum. You can only visit the Sistine Chapel when you have a ticket for the Vatican Museum.
Why do I need to select timeslots?
Rome is one of the most visited cities in the world. Only a maximum amount of people can enter the Colosseum, St. Peter’s Basilica and Vatican Museum at the same time. When you select a timeslot you make a reservation for your access at that moment and the museum makes sure you have a pleasant stay inside without having too much crowd inside. We advise to book your tickets in advance with the Rome Tourist Card so you avoid waiting outside for hours. After you enter the museum/attraction you can stay as long you like.
How do should I select the timeslots?
After your reservation you will get an email with a link. When you open that link you can choose what you want to visit based the availability of the attractions.
Why can I select different types of Colosseum visits and what is the difference between them?
There are 2 entrances at the Colosseum. One for visitors without tickets and one for visitors with ´reserved entry´. With the Rome Tourist Card you enter with a reserved entry. The different Colosseum options that you will see during the reservation process are the available options.
Option #1 – Colosseum Fast Track Tickets with Audioguide (including Roman Forum and Palatine Hill)
Get fast track entrance with the Rome Tourist, which provides you with electronic tickets ahead of time and lets you avoid the queues at the local ticket booths. You will receive an audioguide which you can download on your mobile including all the highlights in Rome and available in 6 different languages.
Option #2 - Colosseum Fast Track Tickets with Videoguide (including Roman Forum and Palatine Hill)
You will also get the Fast Track Tickets and you can pick up the Videoguide (provided by the Colosseum) at the Colosseum. The Videoguide is available in Italian, English, French, Spanish, German, Japanese, Russian, Chinese and Portuguese
Option #3 - Colosseum Fast Track Tickets with visit to the Marmertime Prison where Saint Peter was imprisoned (including Roman Forum and Palatine Hill)
This Colosseum Combi includes the Fast Track Tickets to the Colosseum but you will also get access to the Marmertime Prison where Saint Peter was imprisoned. This is very close to the Colosseum. This Colosseum combi is provided by the Marmartime Prison organisation and therefore you need to pick up your Colosseum tickets at the Marmartime Prison first (which is a 15 minutes walk to the Colosseum).
How does it work when visiting the Colosseum with children?
The Colosseum has special entrance rules regarding children. In the entrance gateway, you need to identify the age of children at the Ticket Desk which is located in this special entrance gate. This will slow your access inside the Colosseum but it is the only way to get inside. Although you are always quicker to get inside when you have tickets rather than when you don’t have tickets booked in advance.
How do I know which bus to take to Rome from the airport?
First, after your reservation you can let us know which airport you arrive (Ciampino or Fiumicino). The bus departs all day from the airport to Central Station of Rome. You can find the bus schedules here:
Ciampino - Rome
Fiumicino - Rome
When you arrive at Termini you can take the bus, metro or taxi to your accommodation. You can also get off at the Vatican. It will take approximately 40 minutes to get from the airport to the city and the busses departure each 25 minutes (less frequent at night). The service is geared around flight departures and arrivals.
