Railbookers · Independent rail package

Verona and Venice via the Alps

Seven-day rail journey from Geneva through the Alps to Verona and Venice

Railbookers offers a seven-day independent rail journey linking three cities across Italy and Switzerland. You will start in Geneva, then board a train over the Simplon Pass through the Swiss Alps, descending into Verona in northeastern Italy. After exploring Verona, you will travel by train southward through the Italian countryside to Venice, where canals replace streets. The package includes six nights of accommodation and all train fares; you choose how to spend your days in each city and plan your own meals and activities. This itinerary suits independent travellers who prefer to explore at their own pace and want the simplicity of pre-booked lodging and train tickets without a guide.
