European Train Tickets
Im new here..Need help pls! Im going to Italy on May 1,but Im still confused about the European rail system..?
-We’re going from Rome->Pisa->Florence->Venice->Milan within six days.
-Im planning to buy the tickets when I get to the station,is it better to purchase a ticket for every city or buy a pass instead?
-Which is the best and cheapest train to take, the InterRegional, Regional, EuroCity or Eurostar?
-Im 25 yrs old, and want to know about the Youth discount card?
-How does the kilometric work in trenitalia?
Regionale: route inside a region, stops in most railway stations, even smaller ones, slow.
Interregionale, the same, but between two or more regions.
Intercity/Eurocity: faster, stops in main cities.
Eurocity/Eurostar: fast trains, stop in big cities.
Alta Velocità: the fastest available (works in progress, rails are going to be adapted or built on new routes)
Cisalpino: like Eurostar, but is an Italian-Swiss firm; usually people choose a Cisalpino because is fast as a Eurostar but it cost less.
I suggest you to buy the ticket on the railway station: for Eurostar and above, where booking is mandatory, do as soon as possible (for instance the day before).
Anyway, look at Trenitalia site for more information
