- Help! RailEurope vs Eurail - Rick Steves Travel Forum
Lindsey, Eurail is a consortium of European national rail companies, ship lines, and others banded together to market railpasses to non-european areas If you buy from Eurail com, you are buying directly from the supplier
- Eurail Pass (Global) Privileges in Germany--U-Bahn, S-Bahn
The Eurail pass includes all S-Bahn that are run by German Rail That might now include all; at one time there was a line in Berlin that was not included The Eurail pass does not include other conveyances run by the city metro districts (Vevkehrsverbünde, such as MVV) - U-Bahn, Strassenbahnen, or buses
- 3 weeks in Europe - Eurail help!! - Rick Steves Travel Forum
Eurail is an agency that sells Rail Passes, etc but they don't actually operate any trains For the rail trips you mentioned, you'll be using the rail networks in each country, and the best way to get specific information is to use the websites of the rail networks
- Rail Europe vs. Eurail. com - Rick Steves Travel Forum
Eurail com is the official source, the website of the company that issues the passes Raileurope is a reselller, similar to Expedia or Booking com
- Swiss Rail Pass. sigh. . . - Rick Steves Travel Forum
My understanding is that the Eurail pass covers the panoramic trains as well, but hopefully someone can confirm that With either pass (Swiss Travel Pass or Eurail Pass), you need to buy a separate seat reservation for the Glacier Express, and the special panoramic cars on the Bernina Express
- Eurail Mobile Pass - Rick Steves Travel Forum
The Eurail Mobile Pass would give a traveler more info which makes those day trips - or SLOW intercity journeys - easier It would be great for spontaneous travel or exploration-by-train day trips
- Should I buy a Swiss Pass in addition to a Eurail Pass?
A Swiss Travel Pass is not any more useful than a Eurail Pass in Lauterbrunnen With either one, you still only get discounts on mountain railways and lifts above Wengen or Muerren So keep it simple and just go with the 22 day Eurail Pass Plus the fact that the Swiss Travel Pass is very expensive Up until recently, the Eurail Pass only gave discounts between Interlaken Ost and Muerren
- Eurail Newbee Questions - Rick Steves Travel Forum
First time using Eurail Pass for touring this coming September, and already I'm coming up with questions that Seat 61 and the various European rail sites don't seem to address: 1) Is there a limit of seats and or sleepers allocated on each train for pass holders, as opposed to single ticket purchasers?
