Venice via the Alps from London

London to Venice by rail through the Swiss Alps in five days

Illustration of Venice via the Alps from London

Railbookers offers a five-day independent rail journey from London to Venice, combining two famous European cities with a transit through the Swiss Alps. The trip opens with one night in Geneva, a lakeside city on the edge of the Alps, then moves onto rail through the mountainous Simplon Pass toward the Adriatic. You spend the final three nights in Venice, exploring its canals, squares, and palaces at your own pace. This package suits first-time rail travellers seeking a straightforward London-to-Venice connection, as well as repeat rail enthusiasts who appreciate the classic Alpine crossing. Because it is independent rather than group-guided, you have flexibility in how you spend each day in Geneva and Venice. From-price is $1,749 USD per person.
