Im having a hard time getting a night train from Sicily to Florence with a sleeper for 2???

Best answer by rvdborgt

It's still too early for 21 June. Trenitalia already has the timetable loaded but nobody else, so wait a bit until it becomes available e.g. on the Italiarail website.

Also note that Sicily is not a train station. The sleeper starts in Siracusa and Palermo, with multiple stops until it goes onto the ferry.

Can be booked via Italiarail.com with a Railpass 

The question is on which date? As not on every date this train goes via Florence :) Some of the depatures from Sicily go via the old more scenic Route via La Spezia and Genoa

Thanks for the info. I tried for the station out of Catina. I’ll look for Siracusa. It’s closer to our hotel. What station do I need to choose for Florence?

Doesnt matter as the train departs from both stations :) Siracusa is the starting station of this train.
