Of course the original sites offer these tickets for far less than scalpers like suggested. Book early to avoid scalper ticket sites

@@paulgerrard9227 I think of booking sites more like agencies. They do charge a small markup because they are providing a service, including, sometimes, making it easier to book and compare prices. But of course it's usually less expensive to book on the official sites.

Hi Elyssa, we took Trenitalia in July from Rome to Florence (third time we have done this now) and we booked very early in advance with train line so got a very good price for first class, really comfortable, plenty of leg room, a packed snack box and was very quiet. Negotiating both stations in Rome and Florence was so easy. Everyone should follow your advice for a smooth trip.

@Romewise 8 ай бұрын

Sounds like you went about it perfectly! Glad you had such a smooth experience. This is why I like to plan my train travel in advance, so I can get just the kind of car service I want. Granted, between Rome and Florence, it's a short trip, but I'd still like to enjoy it! Thanks for your tips and for your kind support as always!

@paulgerrard9227 Ай бұрын

I would always book direct with trenitalia.

@TheRomanPilgriminPerson 22 күн бұрын

I travel only First Class on Italy’s trains. If I’m limited to a Regionale train I always check to see if it offers First Class, some do. I had a very dangerous stalking event on the train in 2nd Class, I had a First Class ticket but didn’t know I was in a 2nd Class car until the Conductress came in and told First class ticket holders to follow her. She saved my life.

One thing I'd like to mention is that at Roma Termini they do not show your train platform number until about 10 minutes before the train departure time. Being used to the train stations in Japan where it can take 10 minutes just to get to your train platform (the dreaded Shinjuku station!) I was freaking out the 1st time thinking I would miss my train. Luckily the platforms in Italy are not that far from the entrance gates. Wish I had known about that underground shopping shortcut in Florence!

@Romewise 8 ай бұрын

That's an excellent point! I am very used to the fact that they don't announce the track until right before the train arrives in the station. But I can see where it would be stressful if you are used to a much more organized or at least more timely system like what you have experienced in Japan. Yes, here, at most train stations, you can make your way to the tracks area and then once the track is announced, you just have to get to that platform. Thanks for watching and for commenting!

@clivebaxter6354 4 ай бұрын

Five minutes for us last time, then they would not let us in at the gate to that platform+

Omg I know what you mean by the shinjiku station! We were running and freaking out too 😂 excited for Italy tho…us Californians aren’t used to metros or trains so we like to leave super early in case we are at the wrong platform

I would add that there are discounts for seniors, me and you, youth, etc. May wife and I did three weeks in Italy all by train, booked in advance with the "silver" discount card and applied the discount to business or first class everywhere it was offered.

@Romewise 8 ай бұрын

Very good point! That's what I mean by booking early. Sometimes there are discounts you can only get in advance. Good to know you can still get senior discounts on the trains, as they have otherwise removed senior discounts at most sites in Italy.

That church Santa Maria Novella is one of the most beautiful in Italy and you might as well start trip right! Also, beware, we bought a train from Tropea to Salerno. The train came and before first stop they checked our ticket and we were on the competitor train. He wanted a 200 euro fine each. We got off at first stop to buy ticket thru them and lady explained if we waited an hour the train we had already ticketed was coming. Moral: be careful which train cause they are not interchangeable.

@Romewise 8 ай бұрын

I love Santa Maria Novella so much and it's a shame more people don't visit it. I think with a short visit to Florence, it would be easy to miss. But it's so full of masterpieces! I don't know if you can visit any time soon but right now as I write this to you, they are renovating Masaccio's "Holy Trinity" and for 1.50€ you can climb the scaffolding and get right up close to it! You can actually look at the holy trinity straight on (as opposed to looking up at it from the floor.) It is AMAZING!! Sorry to hear of your icky experience with getting on the wrong train! Thanks for sharing so others can learn from your experience!

Yes, I think that's right. In Europe, it's simply standard to use the 24 hour clock but in the US, many people use the AM/PM system and so refer to the 24-hour clock as "military time". @@broomybank

@Romewise 8 ай бұрын

Thanks so much! Going from Rome to Assisi is a little different as there is no non-stop fast-train option. All the trains to Assisi from Rome are regional trains. The journey takes a little over 2 hours. You can find some tickets that are non-stop, and more tickets that include one or more stops. So Italo is not an option for this, and you should look on Trenitalia (or Trainline). Or are you asking for a video about what to see and do in Assisi?

Hi Elyssa, Thanks for your channel. I just found out about it this past week. I have already watched quite a few videos of yours on this channel. It has been a while since we visited Rome - 2013 to be exact. I learned a lot about some of the hidden places in Rome after watching your videos this past week. Thanks to this video of yours about Italo. When I visited back in 2013, Italo had just got started and the only way to Florence from Rome was from the Tiburtina station nearby. Since I had ample time, I visited the exact spot where to board the train a day earlier so that there is no rush for our very early morning train to Florence. Based on your video I see that probably you may not have to go to Tiburnita for to take the train - straight from Termini. I will be referencing your videos for my future plans to Rome and Florence. It is very satisfying to see an American living in Rome and making videos in English for the wider audience - feels right at home.

I enjoy your videos of Italy. I got back yesterday from a three-week travel there, and your videos gave me ideas. It is very possible to find places in Milan, Rome, Florence that have zero other people on the street. It depends a lot on your tolerance for anonymity and quiet, and your ability to walk away from crowds whatever the cost of missing a tourist attraction. I actually found the Trevi Fountain by accident while walking -wherever-, and quickly ditched the place. And I happened on the Spanish Steps from the top, quite be accident on a wonderful solitary walk. Thanks

WOW! It has been a long time since I visited Florence! I think it might be 20 years ago now!!! Back in the day, there was a ticket counter where the ticket agents spoke several different languages. You had to look up and see where the "English" line was (I think they showed flags to demonstrate the various languages). EEEKS! Kiosks always befuddle me. I, myself, would probably arrive a few hours early and struggle with it all. This new system does intimidate me, BUT I would still go!!!! Thank you, Elyssa!

@Romewise 8 ай бұрын

Yes, I remember having to buy tickets from the people in the booths - and they are still there, which is great. But the kiosks have made it even easier. I use the kiosks for things like regional trains. For anything where a fast-train is involved, like going to Florence, Naples, Venice, etc, or where a more complicated journey is involved, like getting to Cinque Terre, I love booking this calmly in advance, so I have time to research the different options.

Thanks a lot, I'm glad you found it helpful! First of all, if you want to catch the sunset, give yourself more time than you think. Remember that the "sunset time" is the time the sun is already below the horizon. You'll want to get there at least 20 minutes prior to sunset time to enjoy whatever clouds and colors there may be. If you are going to your AirB&B to check in, ask them to call a taxi for you. Or, you could walk, depending on where the AirB&B is: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q6l0p5p2zauwfWg.html

Thanks for watching! I'm glad if my video reassured you. I also tend to suffer a bit from over-heating. In all the years I've taken these high-speed trains in Italy, I've never once felt uncomfortable due to the air temperature inside the car. March is a funny month and it can be really cold so if they need to, they will have the heat on but it won't be overwhelming.

Italian trains are great but it can be stressful at Rome as they often do not put which platform until a few minutes before it's leaving, leading to looking for it and joining a rush of passengers.

You are so right! What we do is check to make sure the train is not delayed, and then around 10 minutes before departure time, we go ahead through security and make our way to the general platform area. Then from there we can monitor the boards for the track number.

Hi Elyssa, I was hoping maybe you could help me. After watching so many videos I found yours to be so informative. I will be traveling to Italy via a cruise. One of our stops is in Florence. I have done some research but honestly I am so confused as to what train to take from Livorno Centrale to Firenze Santa Maria Novella. And also we would like to stop in Pisa so if we do that can we get back on the train for Florence using the same ticket for Florence? My gosh I hope you can help!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!

That might be a nice way to go as it's all organized. But if you want to go on your own, you can use www.rome2rio.com to check the EXACT steps to take to get from point A to point B.

Thank you! You don't need to leave the station to catch your regional train to Pisa. Make sure that the train leaves from SMN as Florence does have other smaller train stations. But if your Florence - Pisa train leaves from SMN, it will be from one of the tracks there.

Thanks for watching! You will see at minute 11:02 in the video that there is a pretty big opening for the escalator down, There are these entrances at about 4 different points in the station and they are easy to spot since the station is just not very big. The shopping gallery does not have a name per se, but it's evident once you head down as it's shop after shop, plus of course, a bunch of places to eat. To exit the way I did, once you come down the escalator, make a left and keep moving towards the left hand side. You will see signs all along the floor that tell you where you are going. The goal to get out where I did, whether with the stairs I showed you or the ramp, is to go towards the exit for the "Piazza dell'Unità Italiana". You will definitely see those signs along the floor and they are really easy to follow.

Hello, I have having a hard time finding tickets from Cinque Terre to Venice. We go in April 2024 so it may be a bit early but I just want the fastest possible time to get there? Most are saying around 5-6 hours which is long but doable. I also see trains for Italo that say 2 hours but no details on it? Would that be true that it is so fast?

@Romewise 8 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching my video. First of all, while I understand wanting to plan ahead, I do think you are a bit too early for April 2024. I would look now at options that are closer, so you can at least get an idea of the itinerary and pricing. Then, keep checking for April 2024. I'd probably start looking for those tickets from January 2024 on. This is something of a complex journey, as Cinque terra is somewhat remote with limited transportation options. So the first thing you have to do is get to the main transport hub of Cinque Terre, La Spezia. From there, it looks to me like the best and fastest options involve going to Pisa, then Florence, then Venice. There are a FEW options that take you from Monterosso - Milan and then from Milan to Venice only with regional trains, but this combo is not offered that often and it's actually slower than the above options because it's done with regional (slower) trains. No matter what, the journey is going to be fairly well all day (5-7 hours.) I still suggest using Trainline to check the schedules and see all your options.

ItaliaRail does not run any train, it's an US-based agency. Why are Americans always obsessed with safety?

There is some back and forth on this. You do need some form of government-issued ID when you take a train, even just when you go around Rome or anyplace in Europe. Usually for non-residents that ID is a passport. In this case, a photocopy would not suffice. It is my understanding that if you have a government-issued ID that is not a passport, usually a driver's license, that would suffice. A copy of your passport could supplement that but when an official asks to see your ID, they need a real piece of ID, not a photocopy. The photocopy is fine for when you are visiting sites and they want to make sure the name on the ticket is yours (such as for certain Colosseum tours), or to check one's age if you are seeking an age-based discount. You would also need a passport if you are travelling between European countries.
