Reservation facilities were also available. The toilets are very hygienic. The journey time was fine. The train was very punctual. The price-performance ratio was fine.

Pro

Very clean

Very nice and talkative staff

Comfortable seats

Reasonable price-performance ratio

Cons

Journey a little too long

The equipment was limited

My journey by train from Venice to Munich was a mixed bag. The train was characterised by its cleanliness, and the upkeep of the compartments and sanitary facilities contributed to a pleasant atmosphere. The staff proved to be friendly and helpful, which made the journey pleasant. The seats on the train were extremely comfortable, which was a particular advantage on the longer journey. The price-performance ratio was fair, as the services provided justified the price paid. However, the journey time was a significant disadvantage. The journey from Venice to Munich took longer than expected, which caused some inconvenience. The time spent on the train had a negative impact on the overall experience. Another point of criticism concerned the train's equipment. I would have liked more variety and comfort here. The limited amenities spoilt the comfort of the journey and detracted from the overall experience. In summary, although the train journey from Venice to Munich was characterised by positive aspects such as cleanliness, staff and comfortable seats, these were marred by the long journey time and the limited amenities on the train. I think I would recommend the train journey despite this, as it is simply the most environmentally friendly method.

Pro

Beautiful landscapes

The train was on time

Cons

Very poor comfort

Weak equipment

Weak price-performance ratio

The return journey from Venice to Munich again had its ups and downs. The breathtaking scenery along the route was again very beautiful to see. However, the problem of cleanliness on the train remained and it seemed that this had not improved since the outward journey. Fortunately, the departure and arrival were on time this time, which made the journey smooth. Nevertheless, the price-performance ratio was not fair. The comfort was simply too poor. The journey time was comparable to the outward journey, but the seats seemed even more uncomfortable. Once again, basic amenities such as power sockets or improved upholstery were missing. It felt like you were sitting on stone. The interior of the train was therefore still not convincing. The service on board showed a slight improvement compared to the outward journey. The staff seemed a little more attentive and friendly. Nevertheless, there is still room for improvement to bring the service up to expectations. And my expectations are actually not that high. Overall, the train journey from Venice to Munich leaves me with mixed memories. But unfortunately more of the bad things.
