TRANSPORT | MEZZI DI TRASPORTO
Travelling to and around Italy has never been easier. You can travel to Italy from the UK by air, rail (via France), or road. Italy’s extensive railway system boasts some of the fastest passenger trains in the world – it can be quicker to travel by train than by plane between certain cities – and the country is well connected by road. Local public transport is cheap and widely developed, with some cities having underground systems as well as trams and buses.
