Rimini

Two-day rail city break to Rimini's Adriatic beaches from Switzerland

Illustration of Rimini

railtour suisse runs this two-day, one-night rail city trip from Switzerland to Rimini, one of the most popular seaside resorts on Italy's Adriatic coast. From late May to early October, the train travels directly from Zurich to Rimini; for the rest of the year, the journey requires a change of trains in Milan. The one included hotel night is in a 4-star property in Rimini. Once there, travelers have more than 15 kilometers of sandy beach to explore, along with beach bars, restaurants and water sports, and the Borgo San Giuliano quarter, a former fishermen's neighborhood known for its pastel houses and street-art murals depicting scenes from Federico Fellini's films. Parco Marecchia offers a quieter riverside spot for a walk. An optional excursion to the nearby republic of San Marino, about 30 minutes away, can be added. This trip suits independent travelers who want a short beach getaway reached entirely by train, with no group or guide involved.
