    Getting TO/AROUND: I did an overnight train from Rome to Venice and it was a horrible experience. First of all the trains are packed and people are standing in the middle of the hallways and to find and get through the throng of people on the train is near impossible. I had to stand in the smelly hallway of the train for 3 hrs before I found my sleeper room. Not a very good experience and I will never travel by train at night again. One way you can avoid all the hassle of going through the crowd is look for your car number on your ticket and then stand in front of the area the car is supposed to stop at and embark there.

    Metro-Bus-Tram: 3 Days or more in Rome

    Getting TO/AROUND: The Romapass is very convenient if you are planning on visiting lots of sites and museums and planning to use the bus and metro services for 3 or more days. With unlimited travel on the buses and metros for 3 days, a map of the city and the sites, two sites where you can get in for free and discounts on other sites and museums it is well worth the 23 euros pp. You can still use the pass to visit the sites and museums even after the bus and metro part of the pass has expired.
    Another thing I'd like to mention is that the Romapass is of much better value than taking any of the tourist buses, which comes out to the same price for a day of travel and no free entrance to sites.

    Getting TO/AROUND: You can walk in Rome and see so many things. In an afternoon I went from the Colosseum inside and out then walked through the Palatine Hill and into the Forum. I then walked through Piazza Venezia and to the Pantheon. It took me about 5 hrs and I'm a big guy. It also didn't cost me too much about 17 euros in all with my Roma pass I only paid for the tour guide of the Colosseum and used my Roma pass to get in but did not use it to get in the Forum so I lucked out there and got three free sites instead of two. It was 10 euros for the tour guide and 7 euros on food and drink.
