Without knowing these details, it is very difficult, if not impossible, to determine whether it is worthwhile or not to buy any of the tourist cards, be it the OMNIA or the Roma Pass.

With this in mind, we would always choose the OMNIA especially if you are going to be in Rome for several days and want to visit the most important attractions.
