Big Bus: Rome Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour with Jubilee Walking Tours
Step into the heart of Rome and let its magic unfold before you. This isn’t just a tour—it’s a journey through time, where ancient stones whisper stories and every corner holds a new surprise. Hop on and off at your own pace, soaking in the city’s grandeur, charm, and hidden gems.
Tour Overview
Picture this: the wind in your hair as you glide past 2,000-year-old ruins, the scent of espresso drifting from a nearby café, and the thrill of stumbling upon a quiet piazza where locals chat under the sun. This tour is your golden ticket to Rome’s soul—effortless, immersive, and brimming with moments that feel like they were made just for you. Climb aboard the open-top bus for panoramic views, then wander through cobblestone streets with a guide who brings history to life. Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler, Rome’s wonders will leave you breathless—and this tour makes sure you don’t miss a thing.
Experiencing Colosseum
Stand where gladiators once fought and emperors roared their approval. The Colosseum isn’t just a ruin—it’s a time machine, its weathered arches echoing with the cheers and gasps of ancient crowds. Close your eyes, and you can almost hear the clash of swords and the rustle of togas. This is history you can touch.
Experiencing Pantheon
Step inside the Pantheon, and prepare to be humbled. The world’s largest unreinforced concrete dome has stood for nearly 2,000 years, its oculus spilling sunlight like a divine spotlight onto the marble floor. Look up, and you’ll understand why Michelangelo called it "angelic, not human design." It’s a masterpiece that defies time.
Revealing Trevi Fountain
Toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain, and let its baroque beauty wash over you. The turquoise waters glisten under the Roman sun, while Neptune’s chariot seems to surge forward, frozen in motion. Locals say the coin ensures your return—but honestly? One glance at this marvel, and you’ll be planning your next visit before you even leave.
Memorable Moments
- Watching the sunset paint the Colosseum in fiery gold as street musicians play nearby.
- Sharing gelato with new friends in Piazza Navona, laughing as you debate which flavor is best.
- Standing in awe as a sudden rain shower turns the Trevi Fountain’s waters into liquid silver.
- Feeling the hush of the Pantheon at noon, when the sunlight streams through the oculus like a heavenly beam.
Rome isn’t just a city—it’s a love affair waiting to happen. So why wait? Grab your ticket, hop on the bus, and let the Eternal City work its magic on you. Your adventure starts here.
What's Included
Your journey is thoughtfully crafted to immerse you in the heart of each destination—where every detail is designed to delight, inspire, and leave you with stories to cherish. Here’s what awaits you:
- Private, comfortable transport that glides you from one wonder to the next—whether it’s a sleek van with panoramic windows for mountain vistas or a traditional boat bobbing on turquoise waves. No crowded buses, just space to stretch, chat, or simply watch the world unfold outside.
- Authentic meals that tell a story, from steaming bowls of hand-rolled pasta in a sunlit Tuscan kitchen to spice-laden street food shared with local families. Breakfast might be fresh fruit plucked that morning; dinner could be a feast under the stars, with recipes passed down for generations.
- A dedicated local guide who doesn’t just recite facts but shares the soul of the place—pointing out hidden murals in back-alley markets, translating the laughter of vendors, or leading you to their favorite sunset spot (the one not in any guidebook).
- Exclusive cultural encounters that pull back the curtain: a private taiko drumming lesson in Japan, a weaving demonstration with Maya artisans in Guatemala, or an evening of fado music in a Lisbon living room. These are the moments that turn trips into transformations.
- Entrance to iconic sites—without the hassle. Skip the lines at the Louvre’s lesser-known masterpieces, wander the ruins of Machu Picchu at dawn before the crowds arrive, or explore the quiet corners of the Alhambra with an historian who makes the past breathe.
- Thoughtful surprises along the way: a picnic basket filled with regional cheeses and honey after a hike, a handwritten note with a local legend left on your pillow, or a spontaneous stop at a roadside stand for the juiciest mangoes you’ve ever tasted.
- Small-group intimacy—never more than 12 travelers—so you’re sharing experiences with kindred spirits, not a sea of strangers. By the end, you’ll have not just memories, but new friends to reminisce with.
- Peace of mind, because the little things are handled: luggage transfers, gratuities for drivers, even a local SIM card so you’re never lost. All you need to do is say yes to the adventure.
Why It Matters
This isn’t just a list of inclusions—it’s a promise. A promise that your time will be spent living a place, not just seeing it. That you’ll return home with more than photos: with flavors on your tongue, names of new friends in your phone, and a quiet confidence that comes from stepping boldly into the unknown.
