There is an exciting array of railpasses to choose from compared
to 25 years ago when the choices were "one month or two--adults first class
or youth second class !" Today, frugal adults can travel on second
class country passes, Seniors (60+) are getting a break, and you can
easily combine car for country wondering and rail for long expensive distances.
We are excited about the new
Select
Pass which lets you design your own pass to fit your unique trip. It
really is getting easier to experience an affordable Europe trip of your
dreams. Doing a short trip??? Then check out the new 2 country
Combo Passes
Want to Drive some
places then use the train system for long trips? Consider a
