San Luca Express is an awesome tourist train that will take you straight to another symbol of the city - the Sanctuary of Madonna di San Luca. You can get there by foot (if you’re ready to hike up the hill), by car (there’s a free car park available), by bus, or by train, directly from Piazza Maggiore, which is the best option if you live in the city center and have no car (unless you want to walk, of course!). The round trip tickets cost 12€ for adults, 6€ for kids aged 6-10 and disabled people, and 3€ for children under 5 years old. The train will take you up to San Luca, and during your trip, you’ll be able to listen to a guided tour in many languages. Once there, you can get off the train and board the next train to return. There are many departures throughout the day and the train is available every day, so you can make the most of your visit!
