Eurail Italy Pass

Italy is the second most popular country overall for Eurail Pass holders, while the Eurail Italy Pass remains the best-selling One Country Pass. This should not come as a surprise. Italy's railway network is as attractive as the country itself, offering an impressive high-speed system connecting Italy from North to South. As a result, rail travel has become increasingly popular within the country. The fleet of Frecciarossa trains makes the non-stop connection between Rome and Milan possible in less than three hours.

Traveling with the Eurail Italy Pass out of season enables easier access to Italy's many historic landmarks, allowing the traveler to enjoy the beauty of art, tradition and sceneries unchanged for hundreds of years. Florence, Venice, Rome and Milan, Italy's most visited destinations by Eurail Pass holders are easily accessible, as is the beautiful and varied Italian countryside. The ease of getting around via rail and the flexibility of being able to change travel plans provide the perfect ingredients for creating that unforgettable travel experience.
