Question
hi  :)
can you please advice me for Rome-Florence train travel.
I see in trenitalia site only Eurostar Italia prices. I've been told that there are cheaper ways to get to Forence with Intercity trains but i can not find schedule and rates?
We want to make one day trip form Rome to Florence.
Thank you for your time
Jeny

Answer
Hello, sorry for the late answer.
The high speed train is one hour and half and costs 39 Euros. So you  save 10 or 20 euros but you waste many hours on the train. Also please note that Rome TIB is Tiburtina and FI. RIFR is Rifredi and Fi C.M. is Campo di Marte, so you probably may need to take a cab from there to downtown, so what you save in train you may spend it in cabs.

08:41  ROMA TE           11:33 FI.RIFR    26 euro

09:05 ROMA RO TIB   12:47 FI C.M     16 euro

10:44 ROMA TE           13:33 FI.RIFR    27 euro

11:05 RO TIB           14:47 FI C.M     16 euro

12:44 ROMA TE           15:33 FI.RIFR    27 euro

12:57 RO TIB           16:47  FI C.M    16 euro

14:44 ROMA TE           17:33 FI.RIFR    26 euro

15:00 RO TIB           18:47 FI C.M     16 euro


Have fun,
