Roma Pass

Unfortunately on my blog post last night, I did not disclose where to purchase the Roma Pass. I am not sure that you can pre-order than online. Although I am sure that you can purchase then in county at certain Tabaccherie in Italy. Make sure to ask around, they should be more available at places close to major metro stops. There is also a Roma Pass information center in the bottom level of the airport(Fiumicino). Hope you guys check it out!

NAV ITA BACK!

Hey everyone!! I just returned back from the Home land and so excited about what new things ahead for Navigate Italy! So lets get to it, First thing twitter fan and user the post about the tweet about the Roma Pass, here is the scoop! The Roma Pass it a book-let which gives you a 3 day transpiration pass*, a card good for 2 free entries into a long list of museums, monuments and other things (after you use the 2 free, the rest are discounted heavily). You also receive a map of the city and a small city guide. All in all it is an excellent buy if you are staying in Roma for afew days and want to get into the Colosseum, and a few other expensive place for free. Also a good souvenir to back!! All for the cost of 23 Euro!
