from Venice to Milan
Friends, please advise - a trip at the end of October.
I arrive in Venice on Mon, fly out of Milan on Sat in the evening.
I am planning this itinerary:
2 days - Venice
Day 1 - Verona, overnight on Lake Garda
Day 1 - Bergamo, overnight in Milan
1 day - Turin
and the last day - Milan (I'm leaving in the evening).
I think it's too saturated. Or just good?
Is it possible to get there by public transport or without a car?
Thank you in advance :)

ps The trip is planned very budget, so I'm considering all options :)

Hello. The route is awesome. But as advisers, we need pros of movement without a car. My route was a little different, but no less intense. Used trains and cars.

Suddenly something from experience will come in handy.

Thanks, I'll definitely take the advice. I tried to find the website of the state railways to see the schedule and prices, but it did not work ((
According to preliminary calculations, a car for 6 days, taking into account the travel of 650 km, rent (the easiest car for early booking), gasoline and highway fees will be about 400-450 euros. It seems to me that the train will be 2 times cheaper, although a little longer (but the distances are very small everywhere)...

Yes, the train is definitely cheaper. But their prices depend on the time of departure, etc. I wanted to help you, but for some reason I can’t find a link to the site on which we looked at the train schedule last year :(

http://www.trenitalia.com/ - here is this site)) Here are the schedule, prices, and you can redeem online. I advise you to take the second class, it is cheaper and does not differ significantly from the first))
аватар Golubchik
Thanks a lot :)
аватар Irica
Regina is ok too. The price is significantly different. Plus a few intermediate stops. And that's all.

It seems to me that there is very little time for Milan. I think you will not reach Turin! :) train travel is much cheaper, just ask for "best price".
аватар Yaroslavas
I think 1 day is enough for Milan. There are few attractions. This, of course, is not Rome, not Paris / Vienna, and not even Budapest .. A large industrial city. Fashion city. But Turin is interesting. Therefore, I recommend making time for Turin. It’s not even the season of discounts in Milan now, so it’s expensive in terms of shopping. There are a couple of interesting sights, but that's all)

In Milan, you can try to book tickets for the Last Supper (if you are interested, of course).
Climb to the top of the cathedral.
If you wish, there is something to see in Milan.
For example, the Brera Gallery.

Here is the website of the Italian railway - http://www.trenitalia.com/. Use it! There are 4-5 hours from Venice to Milan, there are a lot of trains, high-speed ones are generally amazing!
аватар alex45
I overlooked that the site is, in a hurry to help!
аватар Golubchik
Thank you all so much for the great advice!
The only thing that is not quite possible to use the railway website is that there are a large number of options for departure stations, and I don’t know which one to choose (for example, for Venice)
аватар Irica
For Venice:
Venice Mestre Station is the mainland of Venice
Venice Santa Lucia station is already on the island part, almost near the Grand Canal.
If you have a device like a tablet, then there is an excellent program for the Italian railway. Used, I recommend.
There is more info than on the Trenitali website. If interested, write - I will give details.
аватар Irica
In Verona - choose Porto Nuovo, in Milan - Milano Centrale.
аватар Golubchik
Irica, thank you, you helped a lot ...
There is no tablet, can I install the program on a smartphone?
аватар Golubchik
hmm, apparently there is no timetable for October yet, because. the site gives the message "no travel solutions found"...
аватар alex45
Yes, it’s too early for such dates, look at the schedule and the latest dates that you can see. They won’t differ much.
аватар alex45
And when the time comes to buy tickets online, go through this whole procedure very carefully step by step, once we were looking for our money, long and tedious because of the little things (they didn’t write out the order code).
аватар Golubchik
Alex45, did you buy tickets in advance? For a month, for example, will it be enough? For example, is it possible to redeem and print in Kyiv, and present an electronic ticket on the train when boarding? Liyuo still needs to be changed / confirmed / redeemed additionally?
аватар diana7dg
E-tickets do not need to be changed. I saw people show the controllers on the train printouts of confirmation of the purchase of a ticket on the site.
аватар Irica
No one checks tickets when boarding. After departure, the controller passes, who reads the code on the ticket. Either from a printout or from a phone screen (smartphone, iPhone, iPad).
аватар Irica
If your smartphone is on the Android platform, then the application can be installed.

Yes, no additional actions are necessary. The controller reads with his device both from the printout and from the screens of mobile phones, iPads, etc. If you buy tickets at the box office along the way, then the tickets are composted at the composters. They are in the form of yellow boxes. And more a small nuance when boarding (not everyone knows), the door to the car does not open automatically, they approached the car door, there is a button on the door, they pressed and entered the car. I mean, I saw people staring at the doors in bewilderment, why they do not open?.
аватар Golubchik
Thank you very much for your advice!!!
аватар Irica
The boxes are now green.
