Independent 11-day rail trip through Rome, Lake Como, and coastal Italy

Railbookers operates this 11-day, 10-night independent rail package through Italy. The trip starts with a night in Rome, taking in the city's top sights, then moves on to three nights beside Lake Como, where the operator points to grand villas, rolling hillside vineyards, historic towns, alpine peaks, and wooded islands along the shore. From there, the trip continues to three more nights at Sestri Levante on the Ligurian coast for coastal time, before finishing in Sorrento. Because this is an independent package rather than an escorted tour, travelers manage their own connections between stops while Railbookers arranges the train travel and hotel stays. With three or more nights at most stops, the pace is relaxed rather than rushed. The trip suits independent explorers interested in scenery, food and wine, and Italian history. Railbookers prices the package from $1,899 per person.
