Train, plane or bus from Pisa to La Spezia?
Train versus plane between Pisa and La Spezia comes down to time and hassle: the train leaves from and arrives in the city centre, with no baggage limits and no queues; the plane may be quicker in the air but rarely door to door. Buses exist and are cheap, but for comfort and reliability the train is the option Haqqi Tours recommends first.
Return train from La Spezia to Pisa
Coming back? Say so on the form. A return train ticket from La Spezia to Pisa booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the whole trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.
How much does the train from Pisa to La Spezia cost?
Train ticket prices from Pisa to La Spezia move like flight fares: the earlier you book and the quieter the departure, the less you pay. The class you choose, whether you want a refundable ticket, a seat reservation or a return, and whether children are travelling all change the total. Rather than quote a figure that will be out of date tomorrow, Haqqi Tours checks the fare for the day you want to travel and sends it to you in the WhatsApp chat before you decide.
What we do include in the price we send: the ticket itself in the class you chose, the seat reservation where the operator requires one, and our service - checking the timetable, booking, sending the electronic ticket and answering questions before and during the journey. There are no hidden extras added at the end.
Cheapest train ticket from Pisa to La Spezia: how to pay less
A cheap train ticket from Pisa to La Spezia is not luck - it is booking the right seat on the right departure. Here is how we find it:
- Let us know if your dates are flexible - moving by a day, or by an hour, often halves the fare
- Ask about children's, youth and senior fares - most operators on this route discount them
- Book both directions together - a return or two singles, whichever comes out cheaper on your dates
- Choose a fixed-departure ticket if your plans are certain; flexible tickets cost more
- For families and groups, ask about group fares - four or more passengers frequently unlock a lower rate
- Book early - fares on this route open weeks or months ahead and the lowest tiers sell first
We are happy to be asked "what is the cheapest way to get from Pisa to La Spezia by train?" - it is a question we answer many times a day, and the answer for your date comes back through WhatsApp.
How to book train tickets from Pisa to La Spezia with Haqqi Tours
The easiest way to book train tickets from Pisa to La Spezia is to let us do it. The short form on this page asks only for the essentials; everything else - seat preferences, a pushchair, a bicycle, a connection later that day - you tell us by WhatsApp when we message you to confirm the seats and the price. We provide the ticket in your name, explain how boarding works at Pisa Centrale and stay reachable during the journey.
- Step 1 - send the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
- Step 2 - we message you on WhatsApp with the available departures, the seats and the cost
- Step 3 - you confirm the departure you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat
- Step 4 - we issue the e-ticket and send it to you; we stay in touch until you arrive in La Spezia
Haqqi Tours also provides what happens around the train: a private transfer to Pisa Centrale with your suitcases, a driver waiting at La Spezia Centrale, and tours in La Spezia once you are there. Mention it in the WhatsApp chat and it goes on the same confirmation.
Timetable of the Pisa to La Spezia train
The exact Pisa to La Spezia train times change with the season and the day of the week, so we send the timetable for your specific date rather than a list that may be wrong by the time you read it. As a rule the service runs about hourly, each taking around 1 hour. Weekend timetables are sometimes thinner in the early morning; holiday periods add extra trains and sell out earlier.
We recommend booking a specific departure rather than an open ticket on this route: the fare is lower and the seat is guaranteed. If your day changes, we can generally move you to another train through the same WhatsApp chat.
Is there a direct train from Pisa to La Spezia?
There is a direct train from Pisa to La Spezia operated by Trenitalia Intercity and Regionale Veloce, and it is the one we book unless you ask for something different. One ticket covers the whole journey; you keep your seat from Pisa Centrale to La Spezia Centrale; children and luggage stay in one place. It runs about hourly.
Departure: Pisa Centrale
The train from Pisa to La Spezia leaves from Pisa Centrale, in Pisa - pisa is the city of the Leaning Tower and the Field of Miracles, an hour from Florence and the Tuscan coast. Plan to be at the station about 20 to 30 minutes before departure: enough to find the platform on the boards, pass any ticket gate or security check the station uses, and board without hurrying. Getting there: The PisaMover shuttle links the airport with Pisa Centrale in about five minutes, which is easy for one traveller with a light bag heading for the station or the old town; trains then run to Florence and the coast, but for the beaches, Lucca, Montecatini or a hill town with luggage a private car to the door is simpler.
- Luggage travels with you: racks at the coach ends and above the seats, no weighing, no fees
- Cafés, kiosks and left-luggage are available at Pisa Centrale for early arrivals
- Haqqi Tours provides a private transfer from your hotel in Pisa to the station on request
- Ask us which hall or level your train leaves from - big stations have more than one
Arrival: La Spezia Centrale
You step off at La Spezia Centrale, right in the city. Public transport and taxis leave from the station forecourt. If you would rather not think about it, we book a driver to meet you off the train and take you to the door of your accommodation.
Onward journeys from La Spezia - a connecting train, a ferry or a flight the same day - can be added to the booking; let us know and we time the Pisa to La Spezia train to fit.
Classes and what it is like on board the Pisa to La Spezia train
What is the train from Pisa to La Spezia like inside? Modern coaches with reserved seats, tables for two or four, racks for suitcases, sockets and normally Wi-Fi of varying quality. In second class and first class the differences are space and quiet more than anything else. Over about 1 hour the extra comfort of the higher class is worth it for some travellers and not for others; we tell you the cost of both and let you choose.
- Pets are allowed on many services with a small ticket - tell us if one is travelling
- Reserved seats with tables, power sockets and luggage racks
- Toilets in every coach; a café or bar coach on most long-distance services
- Wi-Fi on many trains on this route - useful for work, not reliable for streaming

Best time to take the train from Pisa to La Spezia
Every season has its case for La Spezia. On the train, the difference between seasons shows in availability more than comfort: peak-week departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for July, August, Christmas, New Year and Easter journeys between Pisa and La Spezia.
