Traveler advice
Getting around
The best way to move in Rome is the subway.
Otherwise you can choose the tramway or the bus. You can find the closest stops in via delle Zoccolette (tram n 8 Piazza Venezia-Trastevere) and in Largo Argentina (there are many buses that go in almost all directions). The ticket for bus, tramway and subway is the same and it costs 1,50 euros. You can buy them in any tobacco store or metro station.
