My husband and I will be taking the 7 hour train from Venice to Munich mid Sept. Our original plan was to make it an over night train but I%26#39;m thinking that it might be beautiful scenery going through the Alps. And after 2 weeks of pretty constant travel I imagine a train ride might be relaxing. Is this accurate thinking or should we scrap it and go back to the over night idea?

unless you travel first class on the overnight train you will probably regret it,,, second class %26#39;sleepers%26#39; are uncomfortable, hot and sweaty... and you share with 4 others... sure, during the day you will see more but in effect you are %26#39;wasting%26#39; a day at your actual destination...

Hi JayCa, we took the overnight train from Venice to Munich last month. Paid extra for a first class sleeper cabin (it even had a shower - an interesting experience on a train), as we werent keen to do it any other way. Was a really good experience, and very enjoyable way to travel. If you wake early you can still see a lot of beautiful scenery from the comfort of your private cabin.
Definitely pros and cons doing it either way, but which ever you choose you will enjoy.
Good luck!

Check the RR schedule (www.bahn.de) for when the trains will be between Bolzano and Rosenheim. You can get this by looking at %26quot;details%26quot; That%26#39;s where the scenery is. So, even if you take a night train (definitely take first class) you might be able to see some of the countryside if it is in daylight.
