Hey everyone 👋

On 4 May, we'll be taking down the Trip Planner on our website. We know some of you have been using it to map out your trips, and we hope the tools below will serve you just as well. If you're currently working on a plan, now's a good time to take a screenshot or jot down your notes. Plans aren't saved locally, so they won't be accessible after that date.

From 4 May, these are your go-to tools for planning your next adventure:

  • The Rail Planner app, where you can plan, save and manage everything in one place
  • Our Planning guide, which walks you through the process step by step and includes a full railway map
  • The Timetable for checking connections across Europe
  • And of course, our community — where we are always happy to help you shape a route!

 

Any questions or thoughts? We'd love to hear from you below. 🚂

Please note that I can't reply to any of my private messages at the moment. Thanks for your understanding.

    I can also recommend these resources for planning a trip.

    • The Interail/ Eurail Map (mentioned in the Planning Guide too, but worth pointing out) specifically.
    • Interrail’s own Trip ideas - use these as a base if you’re short of inspiration
    • Two night train maps (a bit out of date, unfortunately, but a great overview) Nachtzugkarte and Back on Track. A day of travel, followed by a night train, is a really good use of a travel day 😀
    • Seat61’s guide to Interrail or Eurail passes, and a very compehensive guide to reservations (how much they cost, how & where to buy them)
    • Bahn.de for checking timetables (break down your journey into smaller chunks if necessary)
    • Seat61’s route suggestions. Sometimes a human touch is a better way to find the optimum route between A & B than a machine’s answer. Click your city of origin on this page, and see his suggested routes to your destination
    • Chronotrains: how far can I get from this city in X hours?
