Hi, You have said there will be a timetable of the Ventimiglia-milano train, so when can I buy the ticket from Ventimiglia-milano of 15th June? Thank you!
The people who post on this board are fellow travelers like yourself. We do not work for Rick Steves. New timetables will go into effect on 9 June and Trenitalia hasn't uploaded all of them yet. The standard 2nd class fare for a direct IC train from Ventimiglia to Milano is €30.00. The good news is that if you book in advance on trenitalia.com, you can get a Super Economy fare as low as €9.00. The bad news is that you'll either have to wait until all the timetables are up to date before booking or simply buy a full fare ticket at the station in Ventimiglia. To see the current timetables, go to trenitalia.com and enter a date within the next 7 days. The new timetables should be virtually identical to the current ones.
