Trains to Greece and Turkey

Is it true that you can't take a train from anywhere in Europe to anywhere in Greece right now? And if it is, is it then possible to get into Greece some other way with the interrail pass?Also, is it possible to get to Turkey with the interrail pass?

Integration of public transportation in Iceland

Hey,I'm not sure, how it's possible to get new lines into the interrail pass. I was researching this year about overtourism/ public transportation in Iceland. There's the idea to add bus services in the pass, like between France and Spain, to stop the high usage of cars by tourists there. How can we support to bring the long-distance bus company and Eurail together in a dialog? Greetingsnnf635

Trusted Tourist Guide Forum?

Trusted Tourist Guide Forum?This will be my very first to visit the EU and I have no clue of where to go or how to get there. I am planning on buying a Global Pass and see what happens. Is there a forum (I don’t use social media), that I could trust with Q&A information?

Route advice from Paris to Italy

Hello there, This summer we want to travel from the Netherlands to Paris, and then to Italy. I'm traveling with a child, so I don't want the routes to be too long. We don't want to be in the train for like 6 hours. So I planned this: Breda - Brussels or directly to Paris. Paris - Lyon.Then I get stuck. I want to travel to Italy then. If not to far out of the direction we would like to see Marseille and Nice and Monte Carlo. But if that is a route that takes much more time then we would like to go straight to Italy. But if I use the app interrail app I get incredibly long train times, either from Lyon or from Nice. Is that correct? What is the fastest route to get to Italy? If going through Lyon/Marseille/Nice takes so long, then maybe it's better to go from Paris straight to Italy? Or maybe a sleeping train? I can’t see how I can find this in the interrail app. I hope someone can give me advice on this.And them in Italy we want to see: Milan, Venice, Rome, Toscane and maybe Florence.

Tips from veteran Eurail travelers

Hello! I am considering buying Eurail passes for our upcoming trip to Europe. Will be starting in Amsterdam (boarding a river cruise there), ending the cruise in Basel Switzerland, then going to Italy. Just wanting to get any insight on ease of use, if most cities accept these for local travel as well as city to city travel. I am thinking about Basel to Zurich then to the Bernina Express into Italy (Milan, Lake Como, Cinque Terre, Brescia). Would appreciate any assistance or tips from those of you who have made these treks before. Many thanks in advance.

Overnight stay in Zurich without booking hostel

Hey! Me and my friend have to stay a night in Zurich while we wait for our train. We were hoping to sleep in the hauptbahnhof or spending the night at a cafe or bar. But it looks like it all closes at midnight. Does anyone have any tips for 24/7 places to be or maybe know someone we can stay at. Thanks!

Can you go to two countries in one travel day? And suggestions for Berlin to London and back route.

First time Interrail user!1. I want to travel to the UK from Germany (where I live), and my intention is to travel to Brussels, then to London (via the Eurostar) on the same day - or does the Eurostar count as one travel day on its own?2. And also, can I take any route from Berlin to Brussels? IE, could I go from Berlin to Dortmund, stay there for a few hours, then go from Dortmund to Cologne, Cologne to Brussels, or must I take the most direct route?3. And finally (sorry for all the questions!), I was thinking of going to Brussels one way, and to Amsterdam or Paris on the way back from London via the Eurostar - any suggestions for best route?I’m trying to plan the quickest/cheapest but most fun way to go back to the UK, and deciding on whether to book the Interrail or individual tickets!Thanks in advance!!

Pilgrimage to Lofoten

Hi! My friends and I this summer are planning to travel for 3 weeks crossing Europe, starting from our country (Italy) we want to reach our travel destination: Lofoten. We are scouts so even if we’ll probably bring with us a tend, especially in big cities we’ll probably have to book some hostels.We’ve never undertaken an experience like that, so we’re really excited.I’ve lot of questions and I hope you can help me:1) We planned to stay only one day in each city, in such a way that we can reach our destination and still have 1 week to come back here in Italy. What do you think? Could it be a good idea or should we reduce the amount of destinations?2) How much time before our departure (which is set to the 18th of july) shall we book trains and hostels?3) Trains in norway are covered by the Interrail pass? We’ve planned to do first the Oslo-Trondheim route and then going from Trondheim to Bodoe, where we’ll take the ferry to reach Lofoten (all this in 3 days).If you also have general sug

Possible route considering covid?

I’m planning on travelling Europe at the end of May for 1 month on my own but not sure if this is doable with covid. I’ve had a look on the Re-open EU (europa.eu) but am still unsure. Does anyone know if you have to pay extra for tests/isolate- I’ve been double vaccinated. The route I have in mind is:Belgium(Brussels), Germany(Berlin), Poland(Warsaw), Czechia(Prague), Austria(Vienna), Slovakia(Bratislava), Hungary(Budapest), Croatia(Zagreb), (Potentially Slovenia), Switzerland(Bern), France(Paris).
