Everything else on this site costs nothing. These cost a little, and we list them because what you get is far bigger than the price.
€2Since February 2026 the steps and basin edge of the Trevi Fountain are ticketed for visitors, 9:00–22:00 (from 11:30 on Mondays and Fridays). The fee caps the numbers, so the edge is far calmer than it used to be.
Worth €2 if you want to toss the coin or take the photo without elbows. Pay by card at the entrance, cash is not taken there.

€4The basilica is free, 7:00–18:30. The ticket is for its thirteenth-century cloister, with twisted columns inlaid with gold mosaic, and the small excavation area beside it, open 9:00–17:30.
One of the best medieval cloisters in Rome and almost nobody is in it. Take Metro B to Basilica San Paolo and see the papal portrait frieze inside the church first.
€1.50One BIT ticket covers 100 minutes of buses and trams with changes, plus one metro ride. It is what gets you to the Appian Way on bus 118 or out to the aqueducts on Metro A.
Skip the day pass unless you ride five times. Tap a contactless card at the reader instead of hunting for a tobacconist, the fare is the same.

Bernini's Apollo and Daphne and the Rape of Proserpina are here, plus six Caravaggios, and no church or free Sunday elsewhere comes close for sculpture. Entry is by two-hour timed slot with capped numbers, so you can stand in front of the marble without a crowd. Book a week or more ahead.
Everything above is free. This is the only paid pick on the page, chosen because no free option replaces it.
