Riviera by Train

Along the Ligurian coast, in and out of the cliffs

The line hugs the Italian coast: sea cliffs and headlands, olive groves on the terraces, painted palazzi in the harbour towns, and sailboats and ferries out on the water.

The train dips into tunnels and comes out to the sea again, and the light on the water changes through the hour.

Stories you might catch

62 small stories are woven through this railway, and every journey picks its own from the season, the weather and the hour. A few of them:

• Dolphins run alongside the train
• The Palio: rowing crews race for the harbour
• Lampara boats light the night sea
• Sagra del pesce: the giant frying pan
• Fin whales blow off the cliffs
• A wedding at the church by the sea
• Vendemmia: the grape harvest
• Wild boar on the terraces at dusk
