We would like to travel by train form Bern to Florence.While in Florence (3 nights)we will travel to a village one hour away and return in evening.A day later we will travel down to Rome.How should we plan this? Should we buy a eurorail pass? Any other suggestions?

"Should we buy a eurorail pass?"

Doesn't sound like it. A one hour trip each way per day would probably not pay for a pass nor the trip to Rome. Bern to Florence is the only leg that would have a chance to make a railpass pay, and I doubt it.

Compare the cost of point-to-point tickets with the cost of a railpass. You will probably find the p2p tickets cheaper. You can buy tickets the day before use in case you have to change your travel plans.

Thank you for your responses. Thank you also to Kent for posting the general hint about itineraries and train schedules. That was most helpful.
