Thank you for your reply everyone is being so helpful.when you write that in reservations are impossible to make do you mean that you do not need a reservation and so when you board the train you may not get a seat or do you mean that because the reservation is it possible to make you cannot take the train at all. Thank you for the generosity with your time and effort.
Everyone is being so helpful I’m going to keep this thread going a bit longer with your permission.The first two countries I am visiting are Spain and France which it appears are the most difficult for train reservations and cost of reservations using a global pass.After this I will be visiting Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany Czech Republic, Austria and Switzerland and possibly Italy. From what I have read these countries will be easier as they do not place so many restrictions on Eurail global passes and are not so expensive with the reservations. Is this true or will all countries be equally difficult as Spain and France? Once again thank you so much for your help.
Thank you so much for your quick response this was incredibly helpful. Just for clarification this means I have to go to a major train station to book a reservation. Also there are not independent travel agents who can help me with this, is this correct? Do you know if there are time limits for example do I need to do this 24 hours in advance? Or can I take my chances and just go and book the reservation an hour or so before my train leaves. I understand the longer I wait there is a chance that the train will be completely booked. Once again thank you so much for your quick response.
