A journey into the heart of authentic Italy.

Italian Rail Tour is the new format created by FS Treni Turistici Italiani and Fondazione FS to let you discover Italy’s most scenic landscapes, its local traditions, and its cultural excellence, all experienced in a truly engaging and distinctive way.

A project designed for travelers seeking a slow, sustainable, and emotion‑filled journey aboard meticulously restored historic trains, brought back to their original elegance.

We offer tour operators a unique, flexible, and fully customizable travel solution, designed to meet the specific needs of the market. Give your clients an unforgettable journey across Italy, combining comfort, authentic charm, and breathtaking landscapes aboard our historic cruise train.

From the rolling hills of Tuscany to the villages of the South, from the Mediterranean coasts to the art cities, each itinerary is an invitation to rediscover Italy with fresh eyes, guided by the rhythm of the train and the fascination of its history.

Southern Gems

Southern Gems is an itinerary designed to let you experience the energy of Naples, the beauty of its islands, the splendor of the Amalfi Coast, and the authentic icons of Puglia. Thanks to stops in Naples and Salerno, every moment becomes an opportunity for unforgettable experiences, crafted to reveal the vibrant soul of Southern Italy.

Slow Sud

Slow Sud offers an exclusive, unhurried journey into the heart of Southern Italy. The stops in Naples and Salerno, offered by FS Treni Turistici Italiani, allow travelers to discover the spirit of Naples, its islands, the Amalfi Coast, and the enchanting atmosphere of Matera. Each stop is designed to provide an immersive and genuine experience of the region’s landscapes, traditions, and culture.

Iconic Italy

Iconic Italy is a unique travel experience aboard the prestigious Espresso Trains of FS Treni Turistici Italiani. The itinerary travels through the most emblematic icons of Italy, combining old‑world comfort with the discovery of the country’s signature cities. Each stop is designed to offer an authentic and meticulously curated experience, making the journey itself an unforgettable part of the exploration.

Created for the B2B channel, the project offers flexible and customizable solutions, ideal for tour operators looking to offer a distinctive product consistent with new market demands: authenticity, sustainability, and quality. The commercial structure, based on allotments and dedicated agreements, simplifies catalog integration and allows for clear positioning in premium segments.

The three itineraries represent three different ways of experiencing Italy slowly. Iconic Italy brings together the most famous and suggestive destinations, presenting them with a more human pace and a privileged viewpoint from the window. Slow Sud leads into the Mediterranean of traditions, among authentic villages, coasts, and flavors. Southern Gems explores off-the-beaten-path locations rich in charm, perfect for those seeking unique stories and scenery. In all of them, the train is the common thread that allows travelers to experience the true identity of the territories.

On board, the experience is designed to offer privacy, conviviality, and comfort: private lounges for those seeking exclusivity, First and Second Class compartments with classic charm, and a Restaurant Car that brings back the pleasure of dining on the move. Discreet and organized services complete a product designed for those who consider time the true luxury of travel.

For tour operators, Italian Rail Tour is a strategic opportunity: a differentiating offer suitable for cultural, food and wine, or scenic itineraries, capable of combining Italian authenticity, quality, and a strong, recognizable narrative. A new, elegant, and sustainable way to bring clients into the heart of Italy.
