Gems of Italy and Switzerland

Independent 20-day rail grand tour across Italy and Switzerland

Railbookers operates this 20-day, 19-night independent rail package across eight destinations in Italy and Switzerland. The route runs from Rome, where the operator highlights Renaissance sights, to Florence, described through its narrow cobbled streets, candle-lit chapels, and marble-adorned basilicas, and continues on to Siena, Sestri Levante, Sorrento, Lake Como, St Moritz, and Zurich. Because this is an independent package rather than an escorted tour, travelers manage their own connections between each stop while Railbookers arranges the train travel and hotel stays. At 20 days across two countries, this is one of the longer itineraries Railbookers offers, suited to independent explorers and history-minded travelers planning an extended rail vacation rather than a short city break. Railbookers prices the package from $6,299 per person.

What to know before you look closer

  • Railbookers does not publish a day-by-day itinerary for this package, and the description available to us stops short of covering every one of the eight destinations; confirm the full routing and nights-per-stop with them before booking.
