Difficult getting from Arles, France to Rome, Italy?

2 adults, one senior traveling from Newark airport USA to Paris. After a 4 night stay in Paris we wish to go to Arles via train (TGV) -2 nights in Arles- then from Arles to Rome on a train -4 nights in Rome. Then back to USA out of Rome. It seems almost impossible to come up w/a reasonable interary on-line. It totally leaves out Arles to Rome. Is there a decent sight for online ticketing that makes sense & isn't bloody confusing? I'm @ whits end?!

Linda,
I think flying is going to be your best bet both for time and cost.

You can find trains on bahn.com, but on quick glance it looks like there's no easy itinerary. You're looking at around 4 transfers between Arles & Rome. Here's the link: http://www.bahn.de/i/view/USA/en/index.shtml Ryanair will fly you from Marseille's "mp2" terminal to Rome's Ciampino airport. Very cheap if you want to put up with the inconvenience of Ryanair and a non-major airport. Marseille is the closest airport to Arles (about 40 miles) from which you can get a flight to Rome.
