    Getting TO/AROUND: Metropolitana is definetely the best way to get around, it is rather cheap and very fast. The ticket is available in any Tobacco shop or at the station terminal. It costs one euro for the tickest which last 75 minutes or four euro for the ticket which last 24 hours. To change your route, you have to get to Termini, which is central city atation.

    Getting TO/AROUND: Definetely the best way for a quick tour of the city, especially if staying in Rome shortly. On the other hand, it might help a lot showing the sights which one should visit later by foot.

    Getting TO/AROUND: Most of the time I used taxi to get into the city centre and back to my hotel. It wasn't easy task to get taxi in this days coz besides tourists many locals used it aswell. Another thing, you can take ride from the taxi terminal only, most of the taxis ignore your attempt to stop them out on the street even if free. Fact is, there are approx. 6.000 taxi-cars in Rome and in a normal days this number is more than suficient but not during such a special occasions like New Year is when city crowded by the tourists. I usually paid approx. 10 euros to get city centre from via Aurelia.
    If you are not used on speed ride inside the city area with huge traffic, do not use taxi in Rome.
    Another awarning; beware of "wild" taxi service, cost 50 to 100% more than the regular service.

     Fabulous pictures. Great tips, I'll be back to read more. It really is a shame that the city is not so clean.

     Il mio ristorante preferito a Roma č il Tosca (vedi tip sulla mia paginetta di Roma...) Li servono piatti abbondanti a prezzi buoni. Inoltre l'ambiente č simpatico. Ciao!
