Our stay in Rome was really great and the Omnia pass really enhanced our experience. We were able to see all the turistic attarctions we wanted with the help of both card. Being able to skip the line and to book in advance your place for the turistic attractions is key to ensuring you have enough time to visit all the places you want. The free transportations is also a big benefit as you don't need to waste time and buy tickets all the time. We have saved a lot of money by purchasing the Omnia Pass + Roma Pass so we recommend it to everyone interested in visiting Rome. Even tough the price might seem a bit high initially you will thank yourself after the vacation.

It was worth the value. I would recommend to book all the attractions well in advance because there is a danger that even with a card you might be unable to access the sigts since they are totally overcrowded.

Everything beautiful!!! The guides super. The driver too! Assisi and Orvieto speechless. Enjoy everything very much. I recommend it without hesitation

Super that you can buy an omnia card for that price of 129. You benefit from it entrances and transport for 3 days included

I really enjoyed the tour, but Assisi is far superior to Orviedo, having far more interesting sights and history.
