Florence and Liguria

Independent rail trip from Florence to Liguria's Italian Riviera towns

Railbookers sells Florence and Liguria as an independent rail vacation, meaning travelers make their own way between stops rather than joining an escorted tour. The 8-day, 7-night trip starts in Florence, where the description highlights the Duomo Basilica, the Uffizi Gallery's Renaissance art, and the Ponte Vecchio. From there, the route continues to the Ligurian towns of Sestri Levante and Genoa on the Italian Riviera. In Sestri Levante, the days turn to views of the Mediterranean Sea. Railbookers does not name specific trains or give a day-by-day breakdown, so the exact schedule is not confirmed here. It suits travelers who want to pair Florence's art and history with a few days on the Italian coast.
