Paris to Rome by Train (Classic, Summer)

Paris → Rome 9 days Up to 24

About this trip

Nine days by train from Paris to Rome, taking in some of Europe's most-loved cities along the way. You travel by comfortable rail, which gives you real time in each place rather than rushing through.

The route runs through Paris, Switzerland, Venice and Rome, mixing classic sights with local flavour — a river cruise, a gondola ride, a fondue dinner, a food-focused walk. It's a trip built around variety, with each stop offering something different.

Partially guided, so you get local input and some structure without every hour being mapped out for you.

What you'll do

  • Panoramic river cruise along the Seine in Paris
  • Fondue dinner in Switzerland
  • Gondola ride through the canals of Venice
  • Walking food tour in Rome
  • Travel by train between four countries
Good to know
  • Easy pace overall, suited to those who want sightseeing without heavy walking or hiking
  • Partially guided — some included activities, some free time to explore on your own
  • You change base city several times over the nine days
