La Dolce Vita Orient Express - Venice and Portofino

6-day rail package linking Rome, Venice, and Portofino

Railbookers runs this as a 6-day, 5-night independent rail package linking Rome, Venice, and Portofino. The trip is framed around Rome's ancient streets and Italy's history and culture at one end, then the serene canals of Venice and the charming coast of Portofino further along the route. Travel between these stops runs aboard the La Dolce Vita Orient Express, and the operator describes the package overall as a luxury travel package. Because it is independent rather than escorted, travelers make their own way between the three stops rather than following a tour manager. It suits travelers who want a shorter Italy trip that combines a historic capital with two contrasting waterside settings, canal city and Riviera coast, in one package.

What to know before you look closer

  • The evidence available for this package does not include a day-by-day itinerary, so how the 5 nights split between Rome, Venice, and Portofino, and which day includes the train journey, are not confirmed here; check these details with Railbookers before booking.
  • This is listed as an independent rail package rather than an escorted tour, so time between the city stays is not led by a tour manager.
