How to ORDER

USE THIS PAGE TO  ESTIMATE YOUR TRAVEL TIME BETWEEN POINTS. ALSO COMPARE POINT TO POINT TRAIN TICKET COSTS TO PRICE OF A RAIL PASS.  For increased savings, we advise using a railpass for your long expensive trips and point to Point Train Tickets for your shorter and cheaper trips.   see Sample 3 wk Itineraries Cost Estimates.

FIND destinations by country.  If you can't find two points in the direction you are traveling in--look for opposite direction. For example, if you are traveling from Munich to Salzburg--try Salzburg to Munich under AUSTRIA. (The basic information is the same!)  International destinations are in BOLD TYPE

For CURRENT TRAIN, BUS, & FERRY  TIMETABLES GO TO: TIMETABLES . (No prices available)

For CURRENT POINT TO POINT TRAIN TICKET PRICES or SCHEDULES:  ASK TERC
