My friend and I are planning to interrail this May/June with a 5 day pass.
For the first day, we want to get as far east as possible taking advantage of a night train if we can.
I looked at one that heads towards Prague, but am I correct in thinking there is an issue with part of the route being a bus replacement?
This is just our second year interrailing, so still pretty novice.
Can anyone suggest a route, using a night train, that will take us to somewhere interesting.
We went to Naples last year, via Geneva, and back via Colmar (which was pretty, but a bit sterile and dull) and Paris.
We are considering at some point arriving in Slovenia, as we have been told it is a stunning unspoilt country. Also taking the Eurostar to either Brussels or Amsterdam, rather than Paris. We would prefer to minimise reservation fees (I know the night train isnt cheap, but we can offset it against accommodation fees, and saving an Interrail day) and night train is a bucket list thing…
Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted.
