We only had few hours in Rome and the Big Bus allowed us to visit all the city and its major attractions in 3 hours. Next time we will take a 48h pass and stop at all the bus stops and walk around to discover the city in more details. I would recomand Big Bus it to everyone.

This was an awesome experience! It was beautiful to see all of the architecture lit up at night. The only minor issue is it left about 25 minutes later than scheduled(left at 8:45pm instead of 8:20pm), so be careful if planning something directly after. But that being said, we all had a great time, Roma is quite a breathtaking city.
