Trains from Venice to Rome

About the Venice to Rome train

Departures run from Venezia Santa Lucia on the island or from Venezia Mestre on the mainland, so check which your search result shows and allow for the water bus if you are leaving from the Grand Canal. Settle the date and passengers, and whether you want the return in the same booking. After the causeway the line crosses the Veneto to Bologna, tunnels through the Apennines to Florence and continues south through the hill country of Tuscany and Umbria and down the Tiber valley into Rome. You arrive at Roma Termini, on the eastern side of the centre, with both underground lines, buses and taxis at the station. Rome is large, and where you stay sets the tone: the centro storico around the Pantheon and Piazza Navona for walking everywhere, Monti or the streets near Termini for an easy arrival, Prati near the Vatican for a quieter night, Trastevere across the river for the evenings. The hotels on this page show their distance from FCO, the airport on the coast to the south-west, which matters if this is your last night in Italy.
