Travel Info
I am just visiting Nice in France and want to go from Nice to Venice by train. After that travel around Italy on train. Have a tight budget. Should I get a eurail pass or get seperate destination tickets?
Travel Tips
Point-to-point second-class tickets for all of that, excluding the day-trips from Nice, would run about $225 USD per person. A pass for Italy only (Trenitalia Pass), one person, would be $198 (including an add-on day), but you would still need to pay about $50 for the part of travel outside of Italy from Nice, so $248 USD total.
It is possible that a rail representative could advise in how better to use such a pass to your advantage; however, point-to-point looks somewhat cheaper. Passes generally only save a lot on long journeys, although in someways they make travel more convenient as they are easier to keep up with. |
