Train

Italo

There's no better way to see the cities of Italy than by train, trains link just about every town or city of any size, centre to centre. Driving & parking in Italian cities is a nightmare and the high-speed trains are now faster, more convenient & more relaxing than flying - Between 2008 & 2018, the airlines' share of the Milan-Rome market dropped from 50% to just 14%, for example. Rome to Florence takes just 1h32 at up to 186 mph & costs from €19.90, Rome to Venice 3h45 from €29.90, Rome to Naples 1h10 from €19.90, Rome to Milan 2h55 from €29.90. No check-in, no need to get to and from remote airports, no baggage fees or weight limits. Journeys to and from Sicily can be made overnight on a time-effective sleeper train or leisurely daytime InterCity train.
