Train tickets / reservations

Train Tickets

Individual train tickets are ideal for those doing limited travel and know exactly where they want to go. There is a wide range of fares that vary depending on what country you are travelling in.

Looking to do a limited amount of travel or just want to get from A to B then an individual ticket will be your best option for city to city travel.

Travelling between towns cities has never been more efficient with fast convenient connections between major cities. Most stations are located in the middle of the city so when you step off the train you are right in the thick of the action.

Travelling around Europe by train is fast, affordable and fun. A huge European rail network enables you to choose from thousands of destinations – and it's so much less hassle than flying, too. By train you'll enjoy:

  1. No tedious transfers – trains go straight to city centres
  2. No long check-ins
  3. An ever-changing view
  4. No extra charges for baggage or flight duty
  5. Travel with a clearer conscience – it's greener to go by train

Trains in Europe open for reservations approx 60 – 90 days prior to the travel date. On Premier trains the tickets are booked like flights where you must travel on the date and time selected like booking a flight. On standard trains you receive an open ticket + a seat reservation. The ticket is valid for two months but the seat reservation is for a specific train.
