Rome2Rio appears to book through Omio- yet another third (or fourth) party R2R information is notoriously partial, imprecise and incorrect You are not going to get the full range of transport options and be paying commission to do something you can do directly on the relevant transport companies websites direct
- Rome 2 Rio - Rick Steves Travel Forum
Rome2Rio has come up with real wild and exotic routes and prices - I follow the reports of what people have turned up as entertainment Truly wacky stuff Use it perhaps to get a broad overview but do not trust the results at all

Rome2rio is very unreliable I use it to research which companies are offering services on a certain route then go to those company's websites to see their schedule and buy tickets

Rome2Rio is great for initial trip planning but it's not always accurate I'd always go to the source to buy train tickets, if possible I had no trouble using the Trenitalia app in May to buy train tickets with my phone as needed You can register with Trenitalia if you like so you don't have to keep re-typing your name and info each time you buy tickets - but it requires generating a tax
- Best app for trip planning - distances and modes of transportation
As much as I like Rome2rio for giving transportation options and rough estimates on travel times, I've never depended on it for route planning and more precise time intervals when driving
- Inaccuracies and limitations of Rome2Rio for bus options
Yes - Rome2rio is a great starting place to find options Another option to point out - I also have downloaded the app ( Omio ) for when I’m in Europe I’ve used it for trains and buses in spain Purchased the tickets online via the app
- Rome2Rio travel app - a must have! - Rick Steves Travel Forum
After Rome2Rio, I move on to other sources, like country specific train sites, etc I usually find google maps to be fairly accurate though frequently the smaller more local modes of transportation may not be included Its all kind of a process I will report an extremely positive experience with Rome2Rio
- What site would you recommend using to book Trains in France?
Based on my experience, Rome2Rio cannot be trusted to provide accurate information on schedules, fares or trip frequency I wouldn't use it for anything except possibly finding the name of the bus company serving a particular route--and even there, Rome2Rio may not have complete information In fairness, bus info is harder to find than train info
