La Dolce Vita Orient Express: Venice-Florence-Rome

2-day luxury train journey from Venice to Rome via Florence

Illustration of La Dolce Vita Orient Express: Venice-Florence-Rome

Venice-Florence-Rome is a 2-day rail journey operated by Railtour Suisse aboard the La Dolce Vita Orient Express, a luxury train-hotel. The trip starts in Venice and ends in Rome, calling at Florence along the way, with one night spent aboard the train. As with the other short La Dolce Vita Orient Express itineraries, the appeal is the train experience itself rather than time spent exploring any one city on foot: the evidence describes fine dining, elegant lounges, and cabin comfort as the journey moves between three of Italy's most recognised cities. This suits travellers who already have their sightseeing time in Venice, Florence, or Rome planned separately and want a premium overnight rail link between them, rather than a full touring holiday built around this trip alone.

What to know before you look closer

  • The evidence describes the route and one overnight aboard the train but does not detail cabin categories, meals, or any time allotted in Florence; confirm the stop details with Railtour Suisse before booking.
  • This is a short, 2-day, 1-night itinerary; travellers wanting more time in any one city should check whether a longer La Dolce Vita Orient Express itinerary suits them better.
