Hi,
my boyfriend and I are planning to travel from Venice to Nice on the 6th of July. The timetable doesn't show any reasonable routes (they all last approximately 28+ hours), but we found another route on trenitalia.com where the length of journey is 8hrs. Is this information reliable? The difference is huge and it seems a bit strange. Thanks for your help!

Hi!
The database of the travel planner isnt upgraded yet with the new timings which are valid from next sunday. So either search for a date before next sunday (usually there arent huge changes) or wait until next week when the database should be updated finally. The timings from the Trenitalia website should be correct.

Hi.
There is a change and update of the train schedules in Europe always at the beginning of June - so some trains might not be included in all databases - especially information of Italian trains is always late.
The connection with 8 hours should be fine.
One I can recommend you is this one. At the end down to Nice you come from the mountains down to the sea. Beautiful:
Venezia Santa Lucia Dep: 0858 | free IC train
Milano Centrale Arr: 1125
Milano Centrale Dep: 1215 | free Regional train
Torino Porta Nuova Arr: 1410
Torino Porta Nuova Dep: 1435 | free Regional train
Cuneo Arr: 1555
Cuneo Dep: 1604 | free Regional train
Nice Ville Arr: 1917

EDIT: Flow was faster than me. ;)

We'll wait for the upgrade and look into your suggestion, Peter. And thanks to both of you for very quick responses :)
