Train fares and tariffs / tcv in italy

« on: September 17, 2010, 06:23:24 pm »

Hi, today in Prague we wanted to purchase a tcv ticket for travel from southern switzerland say lugarno or Como in italy--across to Venice then from Venice to Florence then onto Rome---at this stage not planning any other stops. The man at the information sold us the tickets we wanted for Switerland but was hesitant to sell us a TCV for italy -- he stated that these trains can be difficult to find out about and sometimes involve many train changes - as we will have our large suitcases we were a bit put off by the idea of many train changes. So he said that we should think about it and as we leave for Zurich tomorrow we would still be able to buy TCV in Switerland for Italy.
Do you have any suggestions for me ?
Thanks

Travel plans, routes and timetables / Prague - Switzerland - Italy

Could you please advise the best way to go from Prague to Switzerland.
Then tour all around Switzerland by train ( I need to go to Lucarno as well) and then go to the Italian Lakes, then Venice then Florence then Rome.
I know thats a lot of information to ask for but anything I get will help a lot --- we do not have any transport beside our own cars where we live, so the trains will be an adventure for the 2 of us.
I have been reading your information about the TCV tickets -- if I was to use those tickets from Prague to Switzerland then into Italy would I have to purchase the tickets in Budapest first?
Thank you.
