I am planning to take the Euro Rail Pass 

 

Heidelberg to Paris (2 days) - Brussels (1 Day) - Amsterdam (1 day) - Frankfurt airport

 

Is this good enough or i drop Brussels and just do Paris and Amsterdam 

Best answer by Marvin Heer

Time wise its fine. As most of those journeys dont take that long. And Brussels is on the way to Amsterdam.

Arround 4h for Heidelberg → Paris

Arround 2h for Paris → Brussels (more if you avoid the eurostar train)

Arround 2:30 for Brussels → Amsterdam

Arround 4h for Amsterdam → Frankfurt Airport

But as ​@BrendanDB mentioned  Interrail/Eurail makes more sense if you have more travel days then you have listed. Especially since the train to Paris aswell as the eurostar trains(Paris → Amsterdam)  have expensive mandatory reservations.

Difficult to say like that without knowing a date.

Interrail/Eurail is but one ticket option of many.

Check prices for ordinary tickets on www.eurostar.com (only Paris-Brussels-Amsterdam) ns-international, b-europe or www.bahn.com (between the Netherlands and Germany and Germany-France).

Compare normal tickets with the cost of a pass + seat reservations to find out the most cost effective option for you.
