    3. Nice to Venice

    Travelling from Nice to Venice by train

    There’s not much that can cheer up a traveller taken from the sun-kissed embrace of the French Riviera, but the most picturesque city in the world and the shining jewel in Italy’s touristic crown is probably a fair contender.

    A 7.5-hour direct journey, you’ll speed through the beautiful scenery of France, cross right over the thigh of Italy’s famous boot (which is another excellent reason to make the trip if you ask us) and reach Venice in the comfort that only Thello and SNCF trains can deliver.

    Once you get off at Venezia Santa Lucia station, enjoy a pleasant 25-minute walk into the city centre and take in the famous St. Mark’s Basilica, one of the finest examples of the Italo-Byzantine architecture.

    Discover coast and canals with this train route – check out our information below and book your train tickets from Nice to Venice with us.

              How do I find cheap train tickets from Nice to Venice?

              If you’re planning a trip to Europe soon, our Trainline team of experts have put together some tips to help you find cheap tickets. Booking on the day in Europe is usually more expensive and costs can vary depending on the time of day, route or travel class.

              1. Book in advance

              The price of train tickets from Nice to Venice starts at $60.38§ one-way for a Standard Class ticket if you book in advance. Most train companies across Europe release their tickets around three to six months ahead of time, so if you know the dates you want to travel, you may be able to find cheaper tickets.

              2. Be flexible with your travel times

              If you can, consider traveling outside of 'peak hours' (generally between 06:00 - 10:00 and 15:00 - 19:00 on weekdays) as lots of trains companies increase their ticket prices during these commuter times.

              3. Buy a rail pass

              If you're visiting multiple locations on your trip, buying a rail pass can be cheaper than buying individual tickets. We're official retailers of Eurail Passes that are valid for travel in one country or multiple countries across Europe.

              4. Choose a slower or connecting train

              On some busier routes, you might have the option to take a slower or connecting train. It may take longer than some high-speed or direct services, but if you have some extra time on your hands, you might find a cheaper fare.

              5. Look out for train ticket sales and deals

              Many train companies in Europe will often run sales and offers on tickets throughout the year, so keep an eye out!

              For specific information about how to get your hands on cheap tickets, check out our European train tickets hub.

              §Some train companies may not offer any Advance ticket types or cheaper deals for early bookings. On rare occasions, train companies may choose to release special offers closer to the date on last-minute or late-release tickets. This is dependent on the individual train operating company you travel with.
