Apple Maps now provides transit directions in many populous regions of Italy, expanding upon existing support in Rome. The feature can be accessed by selecting the Transit tab or button in Apple Maps on iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple Watch.
Supported modes of transportation include trains, buses, trams, and more in and between cities such as Milan, Naples, Turin, Palermo, Genoa, Florence, and Venice.
Google Maps has supported transit directions for several years now, but Apple Maps is steadily catching up with detailed routing information. Apple maintains a list of regions where transit directions are available on its website.
(Thanks, Turret!)

Google maps is so much better. Once a year I try Apple Maps. And I remember why I use google over and over.

I did 12000km on a work trip around southern Italy in about five weeks. Poor little Lancia. Sometimes it would take an hour to just get from one side of a valley to the other, because of all of the twists and turns. Sometimes you’d get to a T intersection and there would be a stack of 20 direction signs pointing left and right with the names of towns on them. Sometimes there were two signs pointing each direction for the same town! Barely had any turn by turn things back then. Just good maps. Fun fun!
