Rome Travel Guida -
Back in the day, whenever I strolled through Rome, I had my trusty sidekick: Let's Go Italy guidebook that felt like a key to unlocking every corner of the city. Who would've guessed that one day I'd be the one crafting a guidebook for Rome? Life works in mysterious ways, doesn't it? That's where Rome Travel Guida comes in – our very own Rome Italy guide book so you can also unlock the city or Rome, easier than ever before!.

Going in September so starting to do research, thank you for this very informative video!

[christopherhamilton]

Just found your channel. We are going to Italy in September and found your information really good even area to stay. Look forward to seeing more from you.

[cherylguthrie]

Great tips - as ALWAYS - thank you so much!! I will use this advice for next time I visit for sure. The first (and only) time I went to Italy in 2018, I now realise how 'green' I was. I got ripped off thanks to my lack of knowledge. Your advice is gold. 🤩🤩

[brentspitler]

Great information, wish I had seen this video before I went to Italy the first time I went to Rome. It would have definitely reduced some stress for me!

[itsmetaran]

Great video!! I had no idea about B platforms located that far away. Thanks.

[deekshmaspiritualzone]

[jamescc]

Great tips. Will be in Rome in Sept this year, plan to visit Venice too by train.

So glad I happened upon your channel the videos are so informative!!’

I travelled on Italo last year and TrenItalia this year. Although I didn’t cover the same route with the two different companies, some general observations.

Italo do not have a café on board. They just have vending machines.

On the trains I was on Italo was not as smooth, and was more noisy. The TrenItalia was smoother and more quiet.

If you want to save money book well in advance.


We got a two for one deal, going to Milan.

Thanks for the video. I love your guidance on visiting Rome and in fact we picked our hotel location based on your experience and advice. We are planning a day trip to Pompeii on our visit in May. You mentioned there is a high speed train direct to Pompeii from Rome. We were only able to find one going to Naples then have to transfer to a slower train. Could you share exactly which train line we should book for direct high speed access to Pompeii?

[debrasams]

Haha! Love the fun sword fight!😂
Good video and informative. I have never ridden a train for travel. I don't have a date for travel yet. My plan is to visit Milan, Florence, and Rome. The slower train I think I would enjoy more. Never having done this, and traveling solo, it makes me a little nervous. I feel I will be fine though. Any suggestions about this itinerary? Thanks.

Hello, just recently found your channel. All your videos are very informative and useful. Planning to go to Rome for the first time. Had a quick question. Are those train fares one way?

[jeffpearson]

Hi! Very useful info. Question: Planning a May 2025 trip to Italy. We are arriving at FCO 9:10am and planning to take train from Roma Termini to Firenze Santa Novella. When should I schedule departure from Roma Termini? (factoring in FCO customs/baggage claim; train into Roma; etc? 12:00? 13:00? 14:00? Thanks!

[rosacintron]

Great video! Going to Rome in September and planning a day trip to Florence and one to Naples. Do you have any advice on using the Trainline app?

[felipeantoniazzi]

I've just bought my train tickets from Roma Termini to Venezia for July this year. I've found it pretty easy to buy through the Italo app and I still got 30% off promo! But how to get through the entrance gates with e-tickets? People say it's quite usual the turnstile does not work properly with e-tickets and there's no staff around to help you out. I hope it works fine for me 😂.

[kentongriffin]

Flying into Rome and going to Naples immediately - can you do a video or walk me through how this process works?

Will I go to Roma Termini via the Leonardo Express and then take Italo/Trenitalia from Roma Termini?

[MariaJose-uucn]

Great info and video. Very informative. Unfortunately, I did not see any low price for the trains to Florence even 2 months before our trip. 😢 On Italo app, the cheapest price in July was 30 euros each way, per person and on the most economic option. So over 100 euros to go on a day trip. Maybe the prices have change recently? Anyhow, thank you for such an informative video.
