Practical tips and precautions for Rome

Arrival and departure

There are several ways to travel to Rome. Whether in your own car, by Flixbus, by train or by plane, all roads lead to Rome.

Public transport is not our first choice in Corona times. We recommend to book a transfer in advance for the journey from the airport to the hotel.

Accommodation

There are several reasons why we recommend accommodation in the center of the city. The most important thing is that you can reach most of the attractions without public transport. Metro and buses are totally overloaded and you have to expect long travel and waiting times. If you have your accommodation in the center, you can walk to almost anything.

Nightlife

Rome is known for the “Movida”. Many Romans enjoy the mild autumn nights and meet on the streets and squares until late at the night to chat. For your safety, avoid crowds and keep away from people you don’t know. If it’s not possible to keep the distance, wear your mask! Places where people could gather can be blocked.

Security

Rome is a very safe city. However, there is a big problem with pickpockets. People from all over the world consider Rome a lucrative place for their criminal activities. You can find more information in our article Safety in Rome.
