Italy Train Travel

With its exceptional rail network, Italy is perfectly suited to luxury train travel. There's the mountainous north to explore, the laid-back beaches of Puglia in the south and a whole host of cultural hubs in between, from the waterways of Venice to art-filled Florence and capital city Rome. And if it's lakeside luxury you're after, we've got the perfect Italian train tour itinerary to suit.

For the ultimate luxury train trip around Italy, look no further than the Venice Simplon-Orient Express. One of the world's most storied set of carriages, this iconic train gives you a taste of the Golden Age of Travel with its exuberant Art Deco interiors, elegant cabins and fine dining experiences from London to Venice.

Explore the mountainous north before railing your way to the cultural hubs of Verona, Venice, Milan, Florence and Pisa; enjoy a change of scenery with a trip down to Rome, Naples and Pompeii; or get seriously southern by extending your train journey to Puglia, and even Sicily.

As well as showing you a lesser-seen side to a country, train travel is also a much more environmentally friendly way to explore, so we have collated a range of journeys around Europe that can be done entirely by train. If you want to mix it up with some flights, though, we do off-set 100% of carbon emissions from all our staff and clients' flight and ground travel so that you can still have a sustainable adventure. Whatever your preference, our team of experts can create a bespoke itinerary to ensure you get the most out of your Italian train trip, whether you're a solo traveller or have a whole carriage-load of passengers.
