Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook of Rome and Its Environs Although the different routes leading to Rome are briefly noticed in the Introduction to the Handbook of Northern Italy, and more fully described in those of Northern and Central Italy, the following information may be useful to travellers who may not have these volumes at hand. A. The most direct and economical route from London and Paris will be by the Mont Cenis to Turin, and from there by Bologna, Florence, and Perugia, or from Bologna by Leghorn and Civita Vecchia. The inconvenience of crossing the Alps, which formerly deterred many from adopting it in winter, through fear of exposing themselves to a trajet of 10 hours by carriage between St. Michel and Susa, is now avoided, the journey being performed by rail since the opening in 1871 of the Great Tunnel between Modane and Bardoneche. Distance from London, by Calais, 1474 miles; steamer and railway charges, 10l. 5s. (11l. by express trains in Italy, where an additional 20 per cent, on the fares is charged); time employed in travelling, from Paris 55 hours, from Loudon 67, by trains corresponding with each other. B. From London to Rome, by Paris, Marseilles, Nice, Genoa, Spezzia, Leghorn, and Civita Vecchia. The inconvenience of this route for the present is, that the part of it between Mentone and Savona, and Sestri di Levante and Spezzia, must be performed by carriage, or between Nice and Spezzia by sea, but this will be soon removed by the completion of the Ligurian Railways. Expenses by railway, diligence and steamer, from London, about 11l. 10s.; time employed, 62 hours. C. From London to Rome by Paris, Nice, Mentone, by rail, from Meutone to Savona by carriage, from Savona to Sestri by rail, from there to Spezzia by carriage, and thence by rail to Rome; or from Nice to Leghorn by the excellent steamers of the Peirano-Danovato Company, and thence by railway; Sestri to Spezzia by carriage in 6-hrs.; thence by rail to Rome. Expense of travelling about 11l. 10s. In the early winter this will be perhaps the easiest, and for invalids the most convenient route; the journey, about 63 hours, not including necessary stoppages. D. London to Rome, by Paris to Nice (rail), thence to Genoa and Leghorn and Civita Vecchia by the steamers of the Peirano-Dauovaro Company; or from Leghorn to Rome by rail through Civita Vecchia. Expenses of travelling about 10l. 10s.; time employed 65 hrs. In the early winter the two latter routes will be the most convenient, especially for invalids. E. From London to Rome, by Paris, Munich, Inspruck, the Brenner Pass, Verona, Padua, Bologna, Florence, and Perugia. Distance from London, 1547 miles. Railway all the way from Calais: at present this is the only unbroken line of railway between Calais and Rome (intercepted during the war), as well as Routes A, B, C, D. Time employed in travelling, 71 1/2 hours; expenses, 11l. 16s. and 8l. 12s. F. Persons not wishing to pass through Paris, and by the Cenis Pass, can proceed by way of Calais, or Ostend to Brussels, Luxembourg to Strasburg and Munich, or from Brussels to Cologne, Mainz, and Munich, and thence to Rome, as in last route. Tickets are issued on this route from Strasburg and Munich to Rome, by which the traveller is allowed for luggage 25 kil., and can remain 30 days on his route. Fares from London by Calais and Brussels, about 12l. 4s. and 8l. 18s. Daring the present disastrous war, this is the most convenient route by which Italy generally and Rome can be reached.
