Train fares and tariffs / Transport in Europe! Help please.
« on: March 05, 2011, 08:31:23 am »
Hi there,
I am spending 5 weeks in Europe and looking for the cheapest transport possible.
The itenary is:
Arrive in London-1week
Make way to Croatia (have 4-5days to do so)
Spend one week in Split, Croatia.
Croatia-Italy.
Spend one week in Italy
Travel Italy-France
Spend one week making way up to Paris
Fly out of Paris
I would prefer to do a few long haul trips to get the countries and then stay in a few key cities most of the time and do a bit of tripping around once there.
What I am looking for advice on is whether it is best to get this Eurorail pass or book the regional trains which seem to be cheaper and slower.
It seems there is some contradictory advice around though which is confusing me.
If anyone could give me any advice I would be truly grateful!
Cheers
