Need to get from Paris to Venice by train during your next European vacation adventure? Look no further than the Thello high-speed night train, a cozy, accommodating commuter that lets you rest your head comfortably as you travel a distance spanning 3 countries! Thello night trains have no traditional seating layout. Instead, you have a choice of accommodation which can be reserved in advance, ranging from 3-bed cabins to 4- or 6-berth (bed) couchette compartments.
The Thello overnight train departs from Paris every evening, making a single stop in the French city of Dijon before traveling direct across the southern tip of Switzerland. Once in Italy, the train makes 3 quick stops (Milan, Verona and Padua) before arriving in Venice, where it makes 2 destination stops: one at Mestre and one at Santa Lucia station.
Since Venice is made up of over 100 small islands, there are no roads – only easy-flowing canals. At the center is the Grand Canal, the city’s main thoroughfare. During your stay, be sure to visit the Piazza San Marco square, Rialto Bridge and Doge’s Palace!
