The French Riviera

The French Riviera conjures up images of famed film festivals, soft sand beaches, and haute lifestyle. Now there’s a train to match the lifestyle of France’s cultured resort , a train to take you there from Italy, the Riviera train!

Fares are inclusive of your seat reservation, which is mandatory at the time of booking. These services are all air conditioned, and they all have a mini-bar service and self-service restaurant car.
