SNCF Website. Cannot Find Train Trip Pricing

Hello,
As I try to collect pricing for trains, I am having trouble with not being able to find the pricing. For example, pricing Nice, France to Como san Giovanni (Italian Lakes region), i can find a train itinerary but not the pricing.
I have also encountered this on the bahn.com website.
Any insight would be appreciated.

If it’s too early for pricing it won’t display. What month are you looking to travel? If this is your case, check for pricing about a month from now and assume it won’t be much of an increase when they release the next dates of fares, perhaps in June for summer.

you won't go straight through on a French train from Nice to Como.

SNCF can give you a train as far a Ventimiglia, Italy and Tenitalia provide the trains onward to Como so can give you the Italian fares.

Or the other route up via Geneva the SBB in Switzerland can help all the way to Como.

But as said above be aware of the dates and booking horizons.

Synapse if you want to see prices from Nice to Ventimiglia on SNCF you must open the "book now" tab on the home page.

Or use this link: https://www.sncf-connect.com/en-en/train-ticket

Both the links you have pasted above, point to the "itinerary" tab from Nice (All stations) to Como S Giovanni. You'll never see a price this way.

I don't know why you can't see prices from Ventimiglia to Como on trenitalia.com

Synapse,

If you follow Dario's link, and put in 13 April you will see a choice of 4 trains-
Nice d 0750, Como a 1347 - 43.5 Euro 2nd Class/46.5 Euro 1st Class
Nice d 0950 Como a 1547 - 36.5/46.5
Nice d 1350 Como a 1747 -36.5/46.5
Nice d 1550 Como a 2222- 30.4/42.8

all of which can be booked instantly by following the prompts.

Currently you can do that for any day up to the end of July.

You do not need to book this in 2 parts or to use a middleman.
