UK & Ireland - 1 month trip advice

Hello everyone,So I’m planning a trip to the UK & Ireland with a friend between mid-August and mid-September (around 9th August - 8th September). I have a 2-month continuous pass and her a one-month pass. She prefers cities while I like both cities and nature. We have a rough itinerary but open to changes. Any advice for places to stay or scenic railways ? DAY 1 : Switzerland - Paris - London → TGV from Frasne (10€) and Eurostar (30€) London (3 nights) : we’ve already been but there are some exhibitions on our list York (1 night) Edinburgh (3 nights) : day trip to St. Andrews worth it ? Inverness (1 night) or 4 nights in Edinburgh and a long travel day to Kyle of Lochalsh (nothing against that) Kyle of Lochalsh Railway Portree (Isle of Skye) (1 night) : we’ll go back one day to explore more of that area (and other islands) by car. The main goals are the incredible railways in that area. Bus to Armadale (must be on a Friday, I checked with the tourist office), ferry to Mallaig and l

Italien seaside resort near Rimini?

Hi Everyone, I’m heading off to Europe with my partner in a few weeks time around 20 April. We are heading to Frankfurt via Brussels and down through Germany to Italy. We fancy taking it easy in a nice seaside town in Northern Italy near Rimini or Ravenna perhaps. We’re not looking for a beach holiday, just a nice comfortable place to relax and chill out for perhaps 6-7 days. We like walking/hiking, art galleries and good food. But we’re also happy to daydream in beautiful surroundings after a hectic winter. I don’t know that part of Italy at all and would be grateful to hear about peoples’ experiences there. thanks!

transfer times germany

Hello. We will be travelling in October. Wondering if 4 min is enough transfer time in STEINACH (B ROTHENBURG OB DER TAUBER), 5 min in ANSBACH and 7 min at STUTTGART HBF station. Ive never been on the train, so Im not sure what it means to transfer from train to train, for example is it another station or across the platform? Or different depending on what city? Thanks for any information!

Direct train Bilbao to Santander

Thanks to comments from @mcadv and others in this forum, as otherwise I wouldn't have known that this connection (regional Renfe Feve) even exists.Used our Passes last Friday on the 71872 13:31 Bilbao-Santander service. We had the time and continuous Passes so why not…Times given on https://www.renfe.com/es/en/suburban/cercanias-feve/timetables were accurate.On the Renfe home page planner https://www.renfe.com/es/en the train came up but with incorrect times (30 minutes out for some reason).Couldn't find the train in any planner apps.Departing from Bilbao La Concordia, next to Bilbao Abando but a separate building. A nice peaceful station. Showed our active Passes at the ticket counter and they gave us tickets to use to get through the closed gates. I'd asked the day before just to make sure and the staff confirmed both times this is how they do it.Views were better than we'd been anticipating, nice suprises pretty much all the way.Conductor was happy enough seeing the printed tickets

Most interesting way to go London to Bari, Italy

Going to be going from London to Bari in mid May.I did the route last year and wentLondon - Brussels - Frankfurt - Munich (overnight) - Padua - Pescara (overnight) - 3am train to Bari so as to catch midday boat to Greece.and on the way back,Bari - Rimini (overnight) - Milan - Zurich (overnight) - Frankfurt - Brussels - London. Does anyone have any thoughts on alternative attractive route with a couple of stops?The only bits I found a bit tedious last year were the Brussels to Cologne bits due to the overcrowding and potential cancellations of that train.

Christmas trip to Switzerland-Austria

Hi all,Since I'm new here, let me first say that I'm so excited that I booked my first interrail pass. I also want to share with you my passion for traveling and especially train traveling. My question is what city you would suggest to visit for a short stopover in Switzerland (Christmas period) and what's the best itinerary to choose to benefit the most? A friend suggested taking a Swiss train from cologne which has a glass roof and goes along the Rhine???Any ideas , suggestions are welcomed. My interrail pass is just for 4 days and I will start from Brussels. Thanks in advance See you in the train!Spyros

Nighttrain Paris to PortBou

Hey, Im searching for a night train from Paris to PortBou, (preferably the 26th of June, but some dates before or after, would be alright aswell). The Interrail website says, that the train should go daily in the summer. But the App doesnt show this route at all (or at least not with night trains). I even tried dates in August, but it didn't help. Does somebody know, if the train still exist? Or maybe another train in the direction (preferably by night)? (I need to get to Valencia) Thanks

Opinions on our Timetable

Hi! We just wanted some opinions on our timetable. We are staying with friends in Amsterdam, so plan to stay there longer to save on accommodation. Just wondering whether you guys think we should swap places out or stay at places for a long or shorter amount of time?

Advice on where to start

Hi all,I plan to activate my 3 month global pass on May 1st. I am based in the UK. Am I right in thinking I wont be able to use the global pass until I am in another country. I plan on starting my trip in Belgium so assume I would have to the eurostar or search for cheap flights closer to the time? On that note, does anybody have any tips on route planning. I have several places that I want to visit but struggling to work out the best possible route. Is there some sort of route planner available that will do this for me automatically? Thanks in advance
