Hello,

I’m travelling with a few young girls and want to make sure my first few days of travel go as smooth as possible. I’m planning to travel from Amsterdam to Istanbul. I need to be in Istanbul on a specific date for a wedding! Therefore, my question is… do I need to take ‘buffer’ days into consideration? Or do the trains typically run when they are supposed to run in these countries?

 

Thanks a lot!

Cheers, Bauke/Anne

If you have to be there for something like a wedding, then definitely add buffer days. (Same advice if you were flying!)

You might miss a connection, a train might be unexpectedly cancelled. Either one can set you back 24 hours if it happens at the wrong time.
