What you get

Two lines on one ticket Integrated with Omnia + Roma Cristiana network Free WiFi on board Live bus tracker (QR code at every stop)

Best for

Travellers who want the broadest stop network in Rome under one ticket — 14 unique stops across two lines, useful if you want to mix the icons with the off-postcard corners (Largo Argentina, Villa Borghese, San Giovanni in Laterano).

Honest heads-up

As of mid-2026, three central stops are temporarily closed due to ongoing Rome roadworks — Colosseo, Vaticano and Piazza Navona. The official map suggests fallback stops (Circo Massimo for the Colosseo area, Largo Argentina for Piazza Navona). Check the operator app for live status before you board.
