Description

Europe by Eurail

Europe by Eurail has been the train traveler’s one-stop source for visiting Europe’s cities and countries by rail for more than forty years. This comprehensive guide provides the latest information on fares, schedules, and pass options, as well as detailed information on more than one hundred specific rail excursions.

The book contains information readers need to enjoy visits in historic cities, romantic villages, and scenic hamlets on more than ninety rail trips starting from twenty-eight base cities located in twenty countries. Sample rail-tour itineraries combine several base cities and day excursions into fifteen-day rail-tour packages complete with hotel recommendations and sightseeing options.

Packed with practical information, step-by-step directions, advice on where to go and what to see and do, and complemented by the inclusion of twenty maps, Europe by Eurail takes the puzzle out of European Rail Travel.

Travelling across Europe by Eurail is one of the most romantic and rewarding ways to experience the continent. With a Eurail pass in hand, the journey becomes just as memorable as the destinations themselves. Comfortable trains glide through ever-changing landscapes—rolling vineyards, snow-capped mountains, medieval towns and vibrant cities—often revealing views impossible to see from highways or airports.

One morning you might wake in Paris, sipping coffee beside the Seine, and by afternoon find yourself wandering the canals of Venice. Another day could carry you past the alpine beauty of Swiss Alps on a panoramic rail route.

Eurail travel invites spontaneity. Plans can change with the weather, a local recommendation, or a sudden curiosity about a town glimpsed from the window. It is slow travel at its finest – unhurried, scenic, and deeply connected to the cultures and landscapes of Europe.
