What is the best way to travel from city to city in Italy?

Holly P asked:


I will be staying in Sorrento for 2 weeks, and then from there I will be visiting Venice, Florence and Milan for 9 days. During my 2 week stay, I will also be visiting Rome for a weekend. What is the cheapest and fastest way to get from city to city? Also, do you recommend buying tickets before I go? I am leaving next month on May 15. Thanks!

    Definatly take a train. If you speak some Italian, you can ask for times at the station or you can check the schedule. Also, you can check train times at bahn.hafas.de. If you’re under 26, you will get a youth discount. While I have travelled most of Europe via trains without problems, I would be remiss in not warning you to keep you belongings close to you, especially as you get further south in Italy. Have fun!

    for the amount of time you are staying in each place…. the trains are the best choice. get a eurorail pass. I believe they are good for a 2 week period and they a reasonably priced. if you want to also… you could rent a car for around 50 euro a day and go where ever you wanted…. just keep your eyes open and drive like you own the road…. people will get outta your way. if not, you’ll be screaming and pulling your hair out if you let them drive the way they want. remember… when in rome….

    I’m Italian and I confirm it: train is the best way to visit the cities you said. As for the tickets, if you can speak some Italian, I suggest you to buy them over there, because you can never know what is going to happen with Italian trains. Often they are late or they could delete some train at the last minute (especially during the summer).
