Hey everyone! I want to make a trip from Amsterdam (Netherlands) to Florence (Italy) early August, then come back to Amsterdam for two days and then go on a trip that takes me past countries like Germany, Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Austria and then back to Amsterdam. Does anyone know which pass works best for this?

 

Kind regards,

Max

As you travel through several countries a Globalpass :)
If a Consecutive or Flexipass depends on how many places you wanna visit and how long you wanna travel at all. Poland,Czech Republic & Hungary are quite cheap to travel by rail (Maybe combine a Interrail Flexpass for the expensive routes through Germany & down to Italy.

Please note you have just one outbound (to leave the Netherlands) and one Inbound Journey (to enter the Netherlands) included. Means that you have to pay atleast 2Journey´s within your Country to the border.

A easy way from Netherlands to Florence is ICE via Frankfurt to Munich and from Munich with the Nightjet in direction Rome till Florence.

Backwards you could travel Florence - Verona - Eurocity - Innsbruck - Nightjet - Netherlands

or Florence - Milan - Switzerland - Zürich/Basel - ICE or Nightjet - Netherlands

I´ am not working for Eurail or Interrail i just share my knowledge here. Please ask in the Community and not via private message as this is the fastest way to get an answer. I prefer English/German/ Czech for my answers. In case of Reservationquestions please share some details like Route, Date, Trainnumber as otherwise we can just provide general advices or answers

Dear @seewulf , thanks for your reply! And also sorry for my late response. I have another question: if I want to travel from Amsterdam to Florence on August 4, I can leave from Amsterdam in the afternoon on August 4 and arrive in Florence the next day in the morning. I will have to switch one more train on August 5 (see the screenshot below). Does this then count as two travel days or just one? 

Kind regards,

Max

This is two travel days since you're changing trains after midnight.

Please ask questions in the community and not via a private message. That's the quickest way to get a response. I don't work for Eurail/Interrail.

Thanks for your reply @rvdborgt . I bought a 7 day pass a while ago, but my travel plans have changed. I am going to check if I can exchange my pass for a 10 day pass.
