Tariffa amica (Amica fare) save 20% money on your trenitalia tickets

I think most of us have problem in understandin italian language, so difficult to find some offers. I hope that this post could help you to save 20% on your train tickets when you travel to Italy.

Most common tariff is Standard tariff, that you always buy. Another kind of ticket is Tariffa Amica. (20% discount when traveling alone or with friends). Each Italian train (AV, ES*, ES*city, IC Plus, IC, ICN, Exp, CC, WL except regional) has some limited seats with 20% discounted tariff amica with the following condition
  1. Ticket should be booked at least one day in advance.
  2. The cost of ticket should be higher than 10 EUR.

For exampls, Here is the comparison of the tickets, if you are traveling from Milan (milano centrale)to Rome (Roma Termini)

ES* ---------|- StandardFare -|---- 20% Tariffa Amica
First class ----|---- 80.80 EUR------|-- 64.60 EUR (You Save 16.2 EUR)
