Hello, we are planning to visit Rome, Florence, Venice, Lausanne, Paris and London for 15 days. Does Eurail Global Pass suit for this travel? We will be two adults and one 8 years old child. Can we use a Eurail Global pass to travel from Paris to London? Can we use Global pass on local and regional trains in all these countries (Italy, Switzerland, France) and the UK?

Yes, global pass includes travel in UK. it also allows travel to/from UK by Eurostar with payment of reservation fees as long as spaces/passholder quotas are available.

Many but not all trains in Italy, most trains in Switzerland and almost all trains in UK are valid with eurail global pass. UK does not require reservations, most trains in Switzerland do not either but Italy and France require reservations with fees on all High Speed and Inter City trains, regional trains usually don’t but it is best to plan trips and check before travelling.
