The Cuneo-Nice railway among the best train ride in the world

In a recent article, German magazine Hörzu ranked the best train journeys in the world and the Turin-Cuneo-Nice railway scored 9th, placing among the 10 best railways in the world.

According to Hörzu, the international line connecting Turin to Nice through Cuneo, Col di Tenda and beautiful Roya Valley, is a unique journey for those who enjoy traveling with style and relax through gorgeous landscapes in the Alps of the Sea - two enchanting hours for €15 only.

The Turin-Nice railway had to compete with first-rate world railways and journeys such as the 4500km-long TransCanadian railway connecting the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, the IndoChinese railway from Bangkog to Singapore, the Luxury Royal Scotsman train ride departing from Edinburgh and running through the Scottish Highlands, the Orient Express riding through London, Venice and Instanbul, and the Andean train ride connecting Cuzco to Macchu Picchu.
