Eurail Timetable

So you've been waiting years to travel Europe and you've finally set aside the money and time to do so. You've paid for your flights, packed your bags and purchased your Eurail pass. There is just one detail few Americans fully understand about using Eurail passes, and that is the Eurail Pass timetable.

To successfully plan your trip around Europe you need to understand the Eurail pass timetable and be able to use it effectively. Failing to do so will cause delays, missed trains and mass confusion (you don't want to end up in Portugal when you intended to arrive in the Czech republic). Be prepared by reading the following on Eurail Pass timetable.

Once you've received your Eurail pass timetable, print it and keep it in a safe place. The Eurail pass timetable will remain available online but it's risky to assume you'll have immediate access to a computer or internet in the train car.

Now that you have printed your Eurail pass timetable be sure you can identify where the arrivals and departures are listed, names and number of trains and lengths of time for each travel. Using that information you can map out what cities you want to see and plan the transportation to each one around your Eurail pass timetable.

One thing to be weary of is the distance between the train station and the actual location you intend to visit. If it's out of walking distance from where your trains drops you off, you may have to arrange for taxi service. Account the time you may need to travel from your location to your train station to avoid missing any reserved or scheduled trains. If obtaining transportation is something you'd like to avoid, then choose stations that are located within or near your preferred travel destination.

When using your Eurail pass timetable always keep your itinerary as flexible as possible because delays can occur. You may miss your train's departure and have to alter your schedule or maybe the train is late. Be sure you account for all of these possibilities.

When choosing your destinations, be sure you research the location. Know which regions to avoid, what the country's laws are (they differ greatly) and currency (many countries accept Euros but always make sure).

There are some guides who will arrange for a Eurail pass that covers their tour. You go with an experienced and educated guide from one location to the next. Typically the overall charge covers your Eurail pass, your Eurail pass timetable, meals and overnight accommodations.
