This is what most visitors mean by “free things to do in Rome”. Three warnings the cards carry and the aggregators do not: Galleria Borghese must be booked even on free days and still charges its €2 booking fee; the Colosseum’s free tickets are handed out on the day in order of arrival; and the Vatican’s free Sunday ends at 2 PM with last entry at 12:30.
