Hi all, done some searching but still have some questions
and just want to make sure I have everything right.

Gonna be in Rome for a couple days soon.

1st I was wondering about Airport Transportation to city center/termini

Seems like there are 3 options?

1. Taxi , fixed at 40 euro, correct?

2. Leonardo express train? 15 euro ? 1 way ?

3. Bus , I believe I read 8 euro for round trip ??


Is that about it? Any cheaper or free options?
For example if you get the roma pass is there any bus
or slower train that you can use to get to and from the airport for free ?


2nd, these are the things I can think of that I want to see in Rome:

1. Coliseum
2. Forum
3. Pantheon
4. the various fountains and stuff, but I know no cost for this.
5. Vatican, I guess the basilica and museum ?

Is the Roma pass right for me ??

Its my understanding that you get a line skip at the coliseum.
And you get transportation for 3 days on the buses and metro
which I would probably ride those at least a few times I would guess.

I am confused on, I guess the forum used to be free but now is not, correct?
So if I got a Roma Pass are the Coliseum and Forum 2 separate things or
are they together? Then the Vatican is all separate, yes? not included on the pass ? Do I need to reserve Vatican in advance? I am hearing no as long as I avoid mornings? it clears out after about 11am ???

thanks for any helpful info and tips!
