Florence and Venice

Independent rail trip linking Florence and Venice by train

Railbookers runs this seven-day, six-night independent rail package connecting two of Italy's best known cities, Florence and Venice. There is no tour guide; Railbookers books the train travel and the nights of the trip, and travelers set their own pace once they arrive in each city. The description centers Florence's art, with visits to the Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia Gallery and a stop at the top of Brunelleschi's Dome for panoramic city views. From there, the train to Venice runs through the Italian countryside, and the operator frames arrival in Venice as a clear change of atmosphere from Florence. Priced from $1,549 USD, the package suits travelers who want two contrasting Italian cities in one trip, prefer to explore independently rather than with a guide, and have an interest in Renaissance and Italian art and history.

What to know before you look closer
