Hello!I’m planning on going to Croatia on my trip this summer but I really want to see the Plitvice lakes. As far as I know we can’t get there by train (correct me if wrong). So I want to make it a day trip from Split, and after visiting I don’t want to go back to Split but to Zagreb instead.Does anyone know if something like this is possible (maybe done it yourself) and do you have to reserve your trip to Plitvice in advance? Any tips more are welcome! grts.

Hi all, I would like to start my trip next week from Paris (France) for 1 month. My goal is to visit Eastern countries starting by Slovenia (Lubjana). To be honnest, I have no clue if the best route is to cross Italia (from Milan, Roma or Turino), Austria, Switzerland or Germany. Do you have any recommandation ? Also, can you share your view on the timing of the departure? Do you think it will be “too” tight for next Monday? Many thanks ! Also, if you are in Lubjana, Zagreb, Budapest, in the following weeks, do not hesitate to reach out! 

Hi, I’m planning to go on a short 1-2 weeks Nordic trip, starting in Berlin, going through Copenhaguen, Albo, Gotheborg and Stokholm. How do you find travelling these times with all the restrictions? Is it hard to find a hostel on the way, without booking in advance? I had been travelling with Interrail in late Summer 2019, boarding trains back then has been easy. How is it now? 

We are planning to travel for the first time by train. We would like to go from Dublin Ireland to Paris France. Must we travel from Ireland to England and then on to Paris, or is there a train that goes from Ireland to France?

Hi All! I want to take night trains throughout my entire trip to maximize my time in Europe. Is this possible? Looking to land and depart from Brussels, to Dusseldorf, to Berlin, to Leipzig, to Prague, to Vienna, to Salzburg, to Munich, to Zurich, ending in Frankfurt. Is this even possible? I think some of these places are only a few hours way from each other. 

Hi there, my friend and I are going on a Interrail trip staring in August. Our first stop will be Prague and we were wondering, what your top tips and recommendations for this city are. We would also love to here about some of the more unknown things to see. We are excited to here from you!  

Hi, I’m planning an extensive trip with a buddy of mine. The goal is ultimately to reach Istanbul within 5 weeks starting from Amsterdam. The idea is to start our trip in Spain, either Madrid, Barcelona or Bilbao. However the reservation costs for the Thalys/TGV are so expensive we’ve started to look at alternatives for crossing Belgium/France. What is looking to be like the most bang for our buck is taking the Intercity from Amsterdam to Brussels, Thalys from Brussels to Paris and the TGV to Barcelona, for around 54 euros. But still 54 euros is a decent amount of money. I was wondering if there’s anyone who has taken the same route but with different trains and cheaper reservations costs. Thanks!

HelloWe are looking for a train from Madrid to Lisbon. We would be also thankful if someone can tell us other possibilities to get from Spain to Portugal. It should be around the 16th of september.Thank you!

Planning to go for a month, leaving the UK around the 10th of August, with the following plans- -Amsterdam, Netherlands-Prague, Czech Republic-Budapest, Hungary-Bled, Slovenia-Verona, Italy Currently away from the UK atm in Greece, n this has cost a ton in Covid tests, been a load of hassle with paperwork and tens days isolation upon return to the UK so just interesting if anyone knows the feasibility of this trip for August! Cheers in Advance xModerator note: swear words have been deleted. 

Hello All,My son turns 18 next year and we’re planning a Father/Son trip across Europe to celebrate. We’ll be starting in the UK and ideally ending up in Crete. We will probably have to squeeze the trip into 7-10 days as we’ll both be working next summer. My questions are: Anyone got any route/itinerary suggestions for the trip? Is the ferry from Athens to Crete included in a Eurail pass?We plan to fly back from Crete (if we make it there!) and the sooner we can nail down a rough itinerary the sooner we can book the flights and the cheaper they’ll be :-)Thanks in advance.

Hello, I would like to join someone in the interrail’s community to ask questions about my next trip. I would like to know if my itinerary it’s correct, or ask some advices with the différent trains. It’s possible to have a number where I can call them ? Have a good day 

Hi! This year in august i am going to interrail for the first time. My plan was Athens - Thessaloniki - Skopje - Belgrade - Budapest - Prague - Frankfurt - Rotterdam. But i just found out that there are no trains between Thessaloniki - Skopje - Belgrade and i think there is also no direct train from Belgrade to Budapest in august.  I was planning on travelling for 21 days but since there are no direct trains this planning might be to much for 21 days. Is there anyone that knows a more realistic plan? Is it better to skip Greece? Thanks for your help! 

Hello community! I am Emma, from Italy and I’m planning my first Interrail journey.I would like to know every possible information since it is my first and solo trip!I’m planning to do this itinerary:  (16 August, flight from home to) Berlin - Warsaw - Prague - Budapest - Sarajevo - Split (3 September, flight home) / planning to spend 2 nights in Berlin - 3 nights in Warsaw - 4 nights in Prague and Budapest - 2 nights in Sarajevo and 3 nights in Split.First of all I’d like to know if it is a wise choice to visit these cities in this order, (or I need some more).Next I wondered how many travel days do I need (I was thinking about 5 days), and how does the pass for the trains work.But if I should know something else do not hesitate telling me! :)Thanks! 

For many Railpassusers the Glacier and Berninaexpress are a must do when traveling arround Switzerland. Many use the fully air-conditioned “panorama trains”, some of which have very high reservation fees. The advantage of these trains is that they run directly and with a dinning service (pre booking recommened).The BerninaExpress in the spiral viaduct of BrusioBut @runner.on.rails (he provided the pictures for this post)  and I prefer the normaltrains on these routes as you can open on many of them the windows (Better pictures as in the “Panoramic Trains” as these have no openable windows). Another advantage these trains goes every hour this means i can stop on the route when i just wanna enjoy the view. A good stop on the Route of the Glacier Express is Andermatt
