Self-guided rail tour Rome to Venice via Florence, 7 days

Illustration of Little Italy

Little Italy is a 7-day self-guided rail journey operated by Eurailing Packages that connects Rome, Florence, and Venice using Italian high-speed trains. You travel independently, making your own choices about where to eat and what to explore in each city, supported by a dedicated app with offline guides and 24/7 phone support. The package includes all rail tickets with seat reservations, hostel accommodation (with options to upgrade to private rooms or 3-4 star hotels), and WiFi at your lodgings. The route passes through Italy's three most visited cultural cities: Rome's ancient monuments, Florence's Renaissance art and architecture, and Venice's canals and palaces. This trip suits first-time rail travellers, budget-conscious explorers, and independent-minded couples who want the convenience of pre-booked trains and lodging without a tour manager.
