Hello, I am trying to find the best way to travel at night, from Hamburg to Zurich on August 6th.
I am also looking to train travel from Zurich into Italy, with a final stop in Rome from August 9th to 11th.
Any recommendations as to what is the best way to buy a ticket or a pass? I am travelling with a 7yrs. old child.

Thank you

Ana Lopez

Hi Ana and welcome to rail.cc :)

Like yogimax already explained, there is a night train from Hamburg to Zurich. As earlier you book, as cheaper the prices are. Have a look here for ticket prices: [ux]https://rail.shop/bahn/Hamburg-Hbf/Zurich/2030[/ux]
Prices for this night train starts from EUR 39 - but as you travel on a Sunday evening, the train should be already very full. Try Saturday or Monday night to find better prices.
More details here: [u]https://rail.cc/de/nachtzug/hamburg-zuerich-en-471-nightjet/501[/u]

From Zurich to Milan you have direct trains which you can book here (where you also find the schedules): [ux]https://rail.shop/omio/Zurich/Milano[/ux] - tickets starting as well from EUR 39.
Another option is to cross the Alps this way: [u]https://rail.cc/blog/zurich-milano-albula-bernina/[/u]

And finally in Italy, use a high-speed-train from Milan to Rome. Book you ticket at [ux]https://rail.shop/omio/Milano/Rome[/ux] or [ux]https://rail.shop/italo[/ux]

Below you find some interesting blogs. If you include more stops, a rail pass could also be a nice option for you: [u]https://rail.cc/de/interrail[/u]
