Although high-speed trains such as Italo and le 'Frecce' are typically the most convenient mode of transportation for travelling within Italy, they do not provide service to all Italian cities. As a result, Trenitalia's regional trains (known as Treni Regionali in Italian) are utilised to access smaller towns and destinations, despite their older and slower nature. Regional trains offer a more laid-back travel experience and are also a cost-effective option for those travelling on a budget.
