Hey everybody!
I am currently planning my first interrail-adventure.
The Plan: Starting off in germany I intend to travel to Bari and take the ferry to Patras from there. After some days in Athina I want to travel up to Thessaloniki and beyond to start my Balkan Tour. However, since there is no international trains running (atleast until next year) I need to cross the border in another way. I am trying to spend the fewest money possible. I have seen that theoretically there should be a train from thessaloniki to Alexandroupoli or Ormenio. From Ormenio I would try to cross the border to slivengrad and take a train to sofia from there.
Does anyone have Advice on the best ways to cross the border there? Is there perhaps a crossborder bus? Can one walk? Just hitchhike? Or is another border crossing easier?
Afterwards my plan is to travel to the Black sea, then to Bucuresti, Brasov, Beograd and Budapest.
Any other general advice on this is highly appreciated :)
