1–3. days · Rome
Start with a square and dinner near the hotel on the day of arrival. Take Colosseum and Forum on the second day, Pantheon surroundings or Vatican City. If you want three full sightseeing days, add one night to Rome and slide the next stops.
4–5. days · Florence
After the fourth day train, start with Duomo perimeter and Arno coast. Take a single big visit like Uffizi on the fifth day or evaluate Pisa as a day-to-day option. Drop the suitcases in Florence eliminates the need to change the hotel when passing to Pisa.
6–7. days · Bologna and return
Take the sixth day from Florence to Bologna and take time to Piazza Maggiore surroundings and dining breaks. Check the flight time before adding a long transfer from Rome to Bologna. It can be more comfortable to take the last night in an early Roman flight.
When does the train in group and enterprise programs make sense?
If everyone is able to access the same station, the train can be a good option among the city centers. Also plan the station–otel connection if there are mobility, large baggage and messy arrival hours. On the corporate team, you can put the fixed meeting city to the center of the route and offer other cities as optional extension.
Before buying tickets
Check the exact name of the train stations, the baggage delivery time of the hotel and the return airport together. Research whether the same train for the group and the same wagon is available if possible. Do not put the clocked museum ticket to the next post of the train between cities.
