Rome Metro: Tickets & prices. All important tips and information regarding the metro and tickets in one place: Compared to other European capitals, the metro system in Rome is relatively easy to grasp because there are only three lines: A, B, and C. Line A and B intersect at the train station Termini in the middle of Rome, while line C lies further outside. However, plans are in place to extend the third line into the city center. The first metro line in Rome opened in 1955 and has since become a regular way of transport for Romans to travel across the city.

One way ticket

The one way ticket BIT (Biglietto Integrato a Tempo) is for those who use the metro or the bus occasionally to travel from A to B in Rome. The price of the BIT is currently 1,50 euro and is valid for 100 minutes, which means that you may change lines. You can switch from one metro to another, but only within the same metro station. It is also possible to change from the metro to the bus within the given time frame.

For 15 euro you can buy a carnet of 10 BIT tickets.

Day ticket

The day ticket in Rome is a 24-hour-ticket and becomes valid the first time you use it. For instance, if you validate the ticket at 1 pm, you can use it until 12:59 pm on the following day. The price for the day ticket in Rome is 7 euro for adults.

Just like day tickets, multi-day tickets are valid for the duration of the hours purchased. Upon validation, you can either use them for 48 or 72 hours in total. The 48h ticket costs 12,50 euro and the 72h ticket 18 euro.

The Roma Pass 48h costs 32 euro and is less common in use. For that reason it is not available everywhere, but you should find it at tourist information centers. As the name indicates, this Roma Pass is valid for 48 hours. It offers a metro card for 48 hours and free entry to one Roman sightseeing or archaeological site as well as different price reductions.

The Roma Pass can be purchased at all participating museums, tourist information counters and certain metro stations in Rome.

    Dear customer service,

    I will be travelling to Rome on 3/11 until 8/11 (leaving for Florence). I am staying at Adesso Hotel Rome (beside Turbitina station). I am thinking of buying the weekly ticket CIS (Carta Integrata Settimanale) which can be used for 7 days and is valid from the first validation until midnight on the 7th day. This CIS ticket is valid only for METRO travel?
    OR what other tickets is suitable? Thanks
