Don't forget that for local trains or non high speed trains, you will need to "convalidare" your paper ticket in the little yellow or green machine before boarding the train.

An addition I'd like to make when it comes to checking your platform: Big train stations will have platforms numbered for example 1 to 15, BUT in addition they can have platforms 1 OVEST, 2 OVEST etc. or 1 EST, 2 EST etc., which means 1 WEST or 1 EAST and these are completely separate platforms to platform 1. This is something I personally fell for once, but never again :)

As an Italian living in Rome and using pretty often high speed trains, I can tell you this review is 100% accurate. Well done

so helpful, thanks!!

Great thorough video!! I'm going for the first time in two months and I'm probably 4 times as wide as you, and you walking it thru step by step makes me more confident I can do it without getting on the wrong train

Straight to the point and no B.S..... thanks for the great advice.

Thank you for this really helpful video. I'm not very experienced at public transport in my own country let alone one where English is not the primary language. Your video has made me feel much less anxious about train travel in Italy.

Great video Gregor. Very informative and well crafted.

This video was so helpful. Thanks for making it 👍

Thank you for your tips. Very helpful.

thank youuu 💙

Good man , gregor . Traveling is amazing when possible!

Thanks so much, this was so helpful. I will be taking multiple train’s when I am in Italy in April! Thanks!

Rode Italian trains in Sicily and from Rome to Bologna and back. WONDERFUL experience. No issues. Bought the tickets from the person behind the desk, not the machines, as it was my first time.

Thanks so much, great tips. Were traveling by train throughout Italy this summer.

Excellent video! I'll post it for our Expat group in Italy. They will enjoy it!

Got our trip tix based on your recommendations. So excited for our trip on July 21st! Grazie!

Thank you for the great video❤

Thank you for your helpful travel information. Our first train travel in Italy, Florence to Venice in October

Good advice. Italian trains are awesome.

Great advice... Bringing my son in June, and we plan on taking the train from Venice to Florence and then to Rome.. so this has been really helpful for my research.. Thank you 🙏

Excellent video! My friend and I are going to Italy this year and we’re nervous about taking the trains. This was very helpful.

Ciao! I rode my first European train in 1974, traveling from Salzburg where I was studying, to various destinations. It was easy back then and even easier today. In Italy, the trains run from city centers, with stops in between, to city centers. Check the frequency from your departure to your destination online, arrive at least 20 minutes before, go to a vending machine, select your preferred language, buy a ticket, for local travel validate it in a tiny box that stamps the time etc on it, and go to the platform and get on or wait till it arrives. Trains move fast. It may depart in a couple minutes. It will be comfortable safe traveling. Renting a car is silly if staying in Italy unless you cannot walk or plan on staying at a resort not in the city. I have been all over the world, Europe and Italy. Traveling by train and day excursions are comfortable and fun.

Super informative. No extra irritating talk either!

Thank you for such valuable information. We had taken trains in Italy but wished we had seen your info. As we had to learn by trail and error.

Appreciated,Very informative and amazing blogs video ,,I really like it the way is exposed the beauty of train , surrounding and in a very simple communication way. Very Good

thank youuu 😘

WOW- this is the best, clearest teaching video I have seen on trains in Italy!

Very useful, many thanks for this video :)

Another great video Gregor. We used the high speed train to go from Naples to Rome and business class was brilliant. We will be using the train next July when we are in Rome to go to Florence for the day so your tips and advice will be really helpful, thanks

Thank you! Going to Italy in for 1st time in march

Oh my gosh! Soooo helpful. Thank you for the app/website to order tix head of time! I'm super excited but anxious about my trip to Italia next month. Flyiing into Rome and going straight to Sorrento from the airport. Thank you Thank you!!

So helpful, thank you!😊

Somehow I get quite a lot of visitor coming from this video no wonder it's a superb video. I instantly subscribe to your channel. Thank you so much...

Thank you for all your info.

Well done - just about all the critical info clearly presented in a few minutes. I probably studied Rick Steves for an hour to learn as much, back in 2000, when ticket machines were considered cutting edge tech and nobody had smartphones.

Great video, as an italian i can say this is a very complete guide

thank you so much , great video

Trains in italy, are awesome!! So clean and smooth. Going back end of April. Can't wait.

Grazie!!!! This was very helpful!!

very informative and useful ❤

Thank you for video 🤗

Good advices! Funny about the last minute change of platform, it is really true! About the app, it works really well, you can check when the train you are expecting is coming, that way you can stop running in a change.

Great video & spot on with the information. One extra bit though is when travelling from Rome Termini be aware that there are more platforms than the those on the main concourse. We assumed that "platform 2 est" was showing the departure time was 'estimated' as ... but it was actually "platform 2 east". There are more platforms on the east side of the station with the same numbering starting from 1 to 5 (I think). We nearly missed our train departure but for a local who noticed that we looked anxious as our train was due to depart & it was not on platform 2. He then told us about the other platforms. And yes we did catch the train as I can whistle very loudly and the conductor held the train for us as it was moving out, very considerate.

Thank you for great video.

Just got back from Europe specifically Italy. Thanks to your channel. I was able to survive the train ride...ha ha ha. Would be easier next time I go back there. Roma Termini is soooo busy and huge, but was able to find the platform # easily. Other train stations are easy to navigate! Trenitalia app is easy. I also tried to use the Biglettia machine with ease on some stations too. So, quite an experience for someone who's not familiar with European train system because we usually don't use train in the USA. Your video helped me. I watched it a few times before I embark on my trip. It's a great help and saver!

Thanks for showing Florence's station, a masterpiece of rationalist architecture from the 1930s, designed by Giovanni Michelucci, one of the greatest modern Italian architects.

That was excellent, get info, no wasted time.

Thanks for your video. Visiting Italy in August for the first time :)

Great video, thanks for the information, Safe travels. Zoe and Ramon

Great video Really helpful

Very helpful! Thank you.

VERY HELPFUL TIPS

Nice video. Congrats! 🙂🙂 I had a Travelling by train experience in Romania 🇷🇴 It was definitely an adventurous ❤ and enjoyable 😀 experience that offers you the chance to know better the country and its inhabitants … 🙂🙂🙂🙏 People very curious when tacking videos in the train haha

Thank you for the info.

I'm taking a spur of the moment trip to Italy because my plans to go to Paris are on hold due to the strikes. I have never been to Italy and this video is so helpful. I feel so much better after watching it. Thank you. Thank you!

Thanks for help and some information

Well done video! Grazie

❤ it!!!

Great information!!!!😀

Hello, thank you for sharing an interesting tour, great video, useful and beautiful, friendly like, good luck and have a good week,😍😍🤗🤗😉😉

Awesome content

Great video 🎉🎉🎉

Thank You...great video

super helpful!

Thank you on this video since I'm planning going to Naples :D Ps. It's common thing to serve beverages and coffee in better trains, even in Serbia (at least in train that goes up to 200km/h. And it's cheap ticket is like 4€). If you have time come to Belgrade (you have cheap wizz air flights from 15€, from Rome to Belgrade).

I visited Porta Nuova station in Torino; it was magnificent: organized, clean, and pleasant. There’s nothing similar in Romania, unfortunately. 🚄🇮🇹

Excellent!!!

Lovef travel by trains in Italy fun fun

Thanks for the recommendation! I feel like traveling via train is the best way to travel he doesn't need to waste time at the airport and doesn't miss any beautiful scenery along the way！！！

Spending a couple days in Barcelona and Venice next year after my cruise can't wait!!!

I will travel to Italy on August so this video is very useful.

Nice tips.

I took an Italo train from Naples to Rome Termini earlier this month and was surprised how busy it was on a Monday afternoon. I think all seats were taken, at least in my coach and I noticed how few seats were available throughout the train when I booked. And it was cheap as well, a lot cheaper than expected and what I would pay on the UK rail network.

PRO tip on Regional/REG Trains (local trains, the slow ones) you can buy the tiket on the train BUT you have to pay 5€ more and it's better if you actively find the tiket inspector inside the train and don't wait for him, otherwise he thinks you are trying to not paying it. it is useful in emergency situations.

I'm glad I just discovered this video, as my wife and I will be taking trains from Rome to Florence to Naples and back to Rome later this year. Train travel has changed a bit since I last rode FS in 1980!

Whilst it is indeed correct to say that in larger cities in Italy there is a main station is often not guaranteed that trains will even serve a main station. For instance in Florence there are some trains that serve either Rifredi or Campo di Marte Stations, whilst in Milan there are other cases of long distance trains bypassing Milan Centrale or terminating at Porta Garibaldi

Thanks a lot. ❤

so travelling with train is a must in Italy, can't wait to travel oneee

Excellent video! Makes me want to go back to Italy even more. The trains are awesome! For local route tickets, don’t forget to validate them using the yellow machines. This is typically done already when you pre-purchase online. In the past, I’ve also gotten a four-hour window in which to use the ticket. So if you need extra time, you may be able to take the next one

great video

The Italians have so much style. That Freciarossa 1000 looked like a Gaggia coffee machine!

We visited Italy and went through the Termini station. Indeed need to be watchful for your platform. We were trying to figure things out an a smaller man came up, asked to see our ticket and walked us to the gate. We were worried it was some kind of scam but couldnt figure out how, thanked him, tipped him 5 Euro. Love the train to Venice!!!
