We are planning to go from Nice to Florence on Oct 3 with a 3-4 hour stopover in Pisa (possibly enough to grab a quick bite and visit the tower). We'd like to get an early start to the day. There is a 5:25 am train from Nice Ville (our hotel is a 5 min walk away) that gets in to Ventimiglia at 6:13 am. The timetables at bahn.de shows a train from Ventimiglia at 6:33 am that reaches Pisa at 10:56 am (IC 505). However this result does not show up on trenitalia/raileurope. Not so much concerned about Pisa to Florence leg since there are hourly trains. Has anyone taken the 6:33 am train? Any idea where to book the tickets from? Should we just try our luck and show up at Ventimiglia and book it at the station?
