My journey from Venice to Florence was very excellent and enjoyable. The value for money was very demanding as the price was very reasonable in my opinion. The staff were friendly, polite and nice. They always took my concerns seriously and tried their best to resolve them. The reservation options were easy and I was able to reserve seats without any problems. Attention was also paid to hygiene, as the toilets were well maintained and clean. The seats were also comfortable and cosy, which made the journey much easier. However, the train did not arrive in Florence on time and the noise level was not adequate. The wifi connection was unfortunately not efficient and rather slow. For example, I couldn't make any calls or be entertained. But overall a great and recommendable trip!

My journey from Venice to Florence was excellent as the price was fair and the staff were extremely polite, friendly and respectful to their guests. I was very impressed by this. In addition, great attention was paid to hygiene. The toilets and washbasins were very well maintained. However, I found the noise level on the train to be inappropriate. There were also several changes of trains, which made the journey more difficult and time-consuming. In addition, I personally found the reservation options complicated.
