Is it alowed to make a stop on a train ticket in Italy eg from Venice to Bergamo, stop at Verona for a few hrs

Question

I don't want to buy two separate train tickets fif possible but wondered if you can make a stopover on one ticket?

Answer 1

Genius Cook and John are both partially right. The regulations for tickets specify a valid duration from the time when the ticket is stamped before getting on the train. The Italian train website describes the validity and duration here: http://www.trenitalia.it/en/treni_stazio... If you're taking regional trains with starting and ending stations in different regions (Veneto and Lombardia in your example), you have 6 hours to complete the trip. If you're using intercity trains, you have 24 hours to complete the trip. The 6 hour limit would not allow you time to see Verona, but the 24 hour limit certainly would.

Answer 2

I don't think a train ticket could last for 24 hours, I think it does for 6 hours, and it depends on the kind of train you take. However it isn't a problem to buy more than 1 ticket to travel from Venice to Bergamo, because you can buy them in Venice and I don't think you are going to spend much more than buying just one. You can keep looking around on the web to find more answers. And Verona is a beautiful city, couldn't you stop there more than a few hours?

Answer 3

The ticket is supposed to be good for 24 hours after you punch it.... so you should be able to stop in Verona leaving from Venice and on your to Bergamo.

Some of the ticket sales persons at the venice rail station speak very good English and they'll be able to verify what I've said.

Answer 4

no!!!
