Grand Venice, Florence, and Rome

7-day independent rail trip through Venice, Florence and Rome

Railbookers sells Grand Venice, Florence, and Rome as an independent rail package, meaning travelers make their own way by train rather than joining an escorted group. The trip runs 7 days and 6 nights, moving between three Italian cities connected by high-speed rail. Sightseeing tours and skip-the-line passes are included throughout, so entry to major sights does not require waiting in separate lines. In Venice the trip includes a gondola ride along the canals, in Florence it takes in the city's artistic masterpieces, and in Rome it includes a visit to see the Sistine Chapel's ceiling. It suits travelers who want a compact, well-known introduction to Italy's three best-known cities on one rail-based trip rather than a longer countrywide tour. Railbookers' listing does not break down how the six nights are split across the three cities or name the hotels used, so confirm those details directly with them.
