TRACI LARSON
5 stars
“This was an awesome trip! We enjoyed having the scheduled tours/drivers, but we also enjoyed having time alone to relax or explore on our own. We couldn't ask for a better vacation. I would definitely sign up for another Vacation By Rail tour.

“We had a fabulous Tour Manager in Lydia. She was always available and approachable and friendly to all. We stayed in excellent hotels, tours, and great meals were included. There's only a couple things I'd change. We were too long on the Amalfi Coast, and wished we could spend some time exploring Sorrento on our own. My roommate and I paid for 2 extra nights in the first hotel, in Murano, and you would think at $269 per night, breakfast would be included.

“Loved the leader, Gilly. Loved the amount of free time and planned time as well. Perfecto. Loved the food at Ercolini and Savi. Loved that it wasn’t based in Florence. Loved the size of the group.

DALE PATRICIA TAVAREZ
4 stars
“Locations were amazing. It would have been helpful to have itinerary earlier in the process so that we could map out places we wanted to go. Also it would have been nice to know ahead of time that one of the hotels did not have air conditioning. It was a little too hot to not have AC. For our time in Rome, we were told that the Vatican Museum was closed the day we were supposed to tour and so we agreed to book a Food tour instead. We were not told how long the food tour was so booked a Vatican tour on our own and had to leave the food tour early to make it to the Vatican Museum on time. I am not sure why we were told it was closed that day.

“This was a wonderful vacation. The tour guide was excellent. However, I wish I was told in advance I was joining a mostly British group. I had no British pounds to tip the guide.

Italy by Train

Italy exudes romance, from its breathtaking cities to its sun-kissed coast. It is a country that is world-renowned for its delicious culinary offerings and incredible wine, a place where centuries of history combines with fashion, art, and modern luxuries. Experience the wonder of Italy by train to explore the country's top destinations and to fall in love with the Italian culture.

Italy tours feature cities such as Rome, Florence, Sorrento, Milan, Naples and Venice, and seaside destinations along the Amalfi Coast. Travelers may even experience the Old World charms of Sicily during their Italian adventure. In Rome, visit St. Peter's Square, see the Colosseum and Roman Forum, climb the Spanish Steps, and make a wish in the Trevi Fountain. Take time to relax in one of the city's many piazzas, enjoying some gelato or espresso while soaking in the ambiance. In Florence, visit the traditional leather markets, see Michelangelo's David at the Galleria dell'Accademia and seek out the Medici Chapel. Enjoy a romantic canal cruise in Venice or walk through St. Mark's Square to admire the intricate basilicas. Visit the island of Murano for some delicate glass souvenirs or travel by rail to the ruined city of Pompeii. Relax in Sorrento, the perfect place to begin your explorations of the colorful Amalfi Coast.

But it is not just destinations that are highlighted on an Italian train tour; instead, enjoy immersive experiences that introduce the best in the country. From cooking lessons in Rome to wine tastings in Tuscany and from visits to small towns in the Italian countryside to walking through Vatican City, there is no shortage of fantastic excursions. Enjoy these experiences and more with an exclusive Italy tour, or choose a vacation package that includes neighboring countries, such as France and Switzerland, to uncover the contrasts of Europe.
