Rome has a terrific underground railway system that will get you near most tourist destinations. The Roman Metro has three lines - A, B and C.

The combination of A and B lines is X-shaped; the two lines cross at the city's central railway station, which is called Roma Termini. The metro system is efficient and affordable, and metro maps are easy to navigate: beware at rush hours that the trains can get very crowded.

Rome has also an extensive network of trams and buses that will come in handy: it's a big city so trying to see everything by foot is simply not feasible. The whole metro, tram, bus, and part of the train network (comprising the Roma-Lido, Roma-Giardinetti and part of the Roma-Viterbo railways) is managed by ATAC, whose site comes with a handy route planner.

Taxis may be useful for very long routes (from/to the outskirts of Rome, or from/to the airports).
