Hello there universe, can anyone enlighten me as to the best route from Nice to Venice. I was hoping for a night train to avoid wasting daylight travelling however I have had no success in finding a route yet. Would love some suggestions etc .

Thanks

there is no more treni di notte here-and the views along the coast are superb! you will not want to miss that.
simple use any of the so often posted travelplanners here. the basic route is via Ventimiglia//change//-Genova-Milano-you may also have to change in any of the other 2-or not.
if you want more, then take that second more and tell what ticket you have-IR or not and other wishes, maybe this universum can then help without wasting time.

Hi.
Like nltrainer said: no night train connection available.
If you travel with point to point tickets do it this way:

[b]Nice - Ventimiglia[/b]: by local TER train. Ticket available at the ticket machine at the station Nice Ville for about EUR 6.

[b]Ventimiglia - Milan[/b]: buy online as e-ticket (print out at home) from EUR 14 including reservation - [ux]https://rail.shop/omio[/ux]

[b]Milan - Venice[/b]: again as e-ticket via [ux]https://rail.shop/omio[/ux] from EUR 24

Example:
Nice Ville dep: 0725 - TER local train
Ventimiglia arr: 0813

Ventimiglia dep: 0858 - IC train
Milano Centrale arr: 1250

Milano Centrale dep: 1305 - high-speed train
Venezia Santa Lucia arr: 1540
