Backpacking Europe? If you or someone you know is considering taking a European vacation any time soon, using Eurail passes is an absolutely wonderful way to travel throughout the continent, worry-free. There is great flexibility with the passes, because there are several different options to choose from, and each of them can be used up to six months after the original date of purchase so you have greater flexibility on your travel arrangements.
Look at this perfect family with their perfect smiles and that perfect background scenery of the Swiss Alps riding a Eurail train on a perfectly beautiful sunny day.
The Eurail passes include unlimited travel throughout these countries: Austria, Belgium, Britain, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, England, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Northern Ireland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Scotland, Serbia & Montenegro, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Turkey, and Wales.
The unlimited train travel access will vary depending on the exact Eurail pass you choose, as some passes are valid for a particular country only, including the Swiss Pass, the France Pass, and the German Pass. Certain passes will allow for two countries, such as the France-Italy Pass. The Global Pass is the best option for those who intend on visiting three to five different bordering countries because you'll choose the countries you want when booking the pass and be given unlimited travel between those countries for predetermined number of days. Some passes allow for up to 15 days in two months, where others are only valid for a month. Different day packages are available to accommodate every budget.
There are several different Eurail pass pricing options, too. Adults are provided with first and second class fare, children are always half this price, and youth is a discounted adult price. Some passes include a senior option, and many of them have a Savers option for groups of two to five people who will always be traveling together. The Eurail passes make any European vacation affordable!
In addition to the incredible array of options available, the passes come with discounts on other forms of travel and admission to some local attractions. The passes are a great way to really see what you came to see—because without them, you'll be spending too much time worrying about your transportation and schedules to really be able to roam around at your own leisure. Who wants a stressful vacation, especially one to Europe, right? Plan your trip as you want to, and have the Eurail staff help coordinate the finer details of the itinerary so you can get the best trip possible.
