I would like to go through the Alps to Venice. It was suggested to fly nonstop to Paris and take a fast train to Zurich and then take "a train through the alps." I've been doing some research and everyone wants to sell me a tour. I just want to go to Venice via a very picturesque route. I am stopping in Venice before I head for a writers' retreat in Tuscany, so I will be using a private tour guide in Venice for three days. Conceivably I can leave Aug. 29 from Los Angeles and would like to get to Venice on September 1 more likely September 2. Is this doable?
