We ordered 2 of these passes online after looking over various ones, and this seemed to suit us better. We added on the airport transfer bus as well. Before we’d even got to Rome though, we contacted them about our Colosseum ticket and found that the responsiveness was amazing and fully answered our Q. Once there, really easy to navigate to the various attractions, tourist centres for further booking (really good staff here too), bus stops etc. We then emailed again while we were there about the return transfer as heard some roads were going to be closed - again, really fast informative response. Would recommend. The only thing they need to add really is the option to upgrade the Colosseum tour to include the underground bit.
With the pass we saw so many interesting things in Rome in 7 days. The Colosseum and Vatican Museums had the skip-to-line ticket, which prevented long waits. My tip is to book even earlier in the holiday so that you can get early entry if, like us, you want to read "every" sign. We didn't get to the Vatican Museums until 4 p.m., but with the advance work out what to see where, everyone was able to go straight away. We made appointments for Castel Sant'Angelo, Pantheon and Catacombs as soon as we arrived and everything worked out very well. Local transport and the airport shuttle were also useful for us. You should use the Hopper Bus during the week if you can, then there are always free tickets. In summary, it was a great cultural holiday with the pass with incredible impressions. Thank you to the Turbo Pass team.
We booked the Turbopass Rome... a reliable and loyal companion through the eternal city... from local transport tickets to admission to the most popular attractions (be sure to book the Vatican Museums and Colosseum in advance), everything you need is included.

It's easy to get around with the Rome City Pass! All the places to visit are recommended - cafes and restaurants are very good. Favorite place: Trevi Fountain - Pantheon - Vatican Museum - Colosseum
Everything worked out great. Public transport, hop on hop off bus and entry to many attractions included! A great thing!
Definitely recommended for a stay in Rome... otherwise long queues...
We were almost put off by the negative reviews of the Turbopass Rome and cancelled our tickets. However, we stuck with the booking and were pleasantly surprised. It is important to mention that some tickets (Colosseum, Castel Sant'Angelo and Vatican Museums) have to be booked in advance. Here we were given our preferred times for all 3 locations (directly at opening or in the evening). Some tickets, for example, have to be activated in advance at the tourist information office or the entry vouchers (Castle Sant'Angelo) are converted into tickets there. This also worked smoothly for us. The pass includes some attractions away from the usual tourist hotspots. We probably wouldn't have seen these separately. All in all, we were very satisfied with the organization and the services. However, in order for the price of the pass to be worth it, you do have to take advantage of some of the services, otherwise it may be cheaper in individual cases to book the tickets for the main attractions separately.
It was a good idea to buy the Rome City Pass before we started our trip. The process went smoothly, the pass (for 2 people) arrived by email on time. Unfortunately, the pass doesn't do the searching for where things are for you, although it is well described, we only developed a kind of routine on the second day. Nevertheless, Turbopass is recommended! What annoyed us was that despite the QR code or appointment reservation with day and time for the Colosseum or Vatican Museum, you have to get a ticket on site with the reservation either at the tourist office or directly at the Colosseum, for example. The tickets for the free local transport, etc., also have to be bought in paper form and validated on the first journey. Queuing is included - even if it's a different queue, even if it goes a bit faster - time is pretty relative in Rome. I don't understand why not everything is "stored" in the QR code and you still need extra paper and, above all, time.
Booking and pre-reserving the possible sights went smoothly - including adjusting a link that wasn't working. Very good service and a wide variety of included sights. Great for culture enthusiasts who want to see and experience a lot. Highly recommended.
With the Rome City Pass, entry to the attractions was generally easy and without complications. You just have to bear in mind that you have to get some tickets at other pick-up points beforehand with the pass.
The scheduled tours (Vatican Museums and Colosseum) worked very well and the recommendation saved a lot of time. The hop-on hop-off bus was very useful for 2 days.
Everything went super
Excellent pass. Helped to make an itinerary of what to see in Rome. A bit awkward having to get tickets at tourist offices which were not near the venues but we managed to see most things.
The Turbopass made it easy and uncomplicated for us to explore the city of Rome. We pre-booked entry to the Colosseum and Vatican Museums, which was highly recommended. Exchanging the vouchers for original tickets involved some searching, but was uncomplicated. I can recommend the pass.
