Getting around the large expanse known as Rome by Venturingnow
Okay, here is some information I think you may find important about the metro/tram/bus system in Rome. It is extensive, the metro is best for long distance runs (for instance, if you're staying near Termini station and want to get to St. Peter's), the buses are good for medium distances, and for sake of argument, the trams are best for short stuff, though I never rode them. You can get daily, weekly, and monthly passes for the transport in Rome, though I doubt you will ever get their value out of them, just buy indv. tickets for those big hauls, Rome is very nice to look at, there is always something nice to see on a walk. Tickets are sold at machines in the subways and some streets have bus ticket stands. You're allowed 75 minutes of travelling time on one ticket, but if your ticket expires while you're actually in transit on the bus, you're supposed to put a new one in.
