Italy

The national railway company of Italy is Trenitalia

Eurail Passes valid in Italy:

  • Eurail Global Pass
  • Eurail Select Pass
  • Eurail Regional Pass
    • Eurail France-Italy Pass
    • Eurail Greece-Italy Pass
    • Eurail Italy-Spain Pass

To visit Italy, choose the train: the Trenitalia network covers 16,000 km (10,000 miles) with 1,000 trains running daily, connecting big cities and small towns inside Italy and with all other European countries.

Whatever your destination is, a train will take you there quickly and comfortably. All the beautiful landscapes of Italy: the sweet hills of Tuscany, covered with vineyards, the stately Dolomiti mountains, the blues and the greens of the sea shores, the quiet countryside, the busy towns, all framed by the window will pass by the traveler’s eyes.
It won’t take long to do all that: 1 hour and a half to go from Rome to Florence, 45 minutes from Florence to Pisa, less than 3 hours from Florence to Venice, always right into the very heart of the town. And for longer journeys (Italy is more than 2,500 kilometers-1,500 miles-long !), or for international connections, you can save time taking an overnight train.

In a comfortable sleeping car you will be taken to your destination rested and ready for a whole new day of discovering.

Traveling by train is always relaxing: plenty legroom and space for luggage, air conditioning, people to meet, a snack or a drink always at hand. And on board the luxury Eurostar Italia trains, the traveler can relax and read a magazine, chatter at the bar or have a delicious meal. In the main stations, all kind of facilities are available: trolleys, porters and luggage office, information office, bank, shops, change, restaurants, rent-a-car, hotel reservations.

Eurail Pass holders
All Eurail Pass holders are welcome in the special “Club Eurostar” lounges, located in the main rail stations, where they will find assistance and dedicated services, in an elegant and relaxed atmosphere. Since almost all long distance trains (Eurostar Italia, Eurostar Italia AV, Tbiz,

IC Plus and international trains on domestic routes) require a compulsory reservation, to board these trains, Eurail Pass holders must purchase a “Global Pass fare”, inclusive of the compulsory seat reservation, whose price depends from the train chosen (between 5 and 20 Euros).

Airports For travelers arriving to Fiumicino International airport in Roma, there are trains leaving every 15 minutes to Roma Ostiense and Roma Tiburtina stations where they connect with the Underground. All Eurail Passes are valid on these trains. Trains leave every 30 minutes to Roma Termini, the main railway station. On these trains only 1st class Eurail Passes are valid. All other airports are connected to the centre of the towns by frequent bus services. Smoking is strictly forbidden on all trains in Italy.
