Is there any type of european rail pass?

Question

next year im planning on travelling from amsterdam by train to berlin, then to prague and then onto warsaw. is there a european rail pass i could get that would cover my train journeys to all of these cities?

Answer 1

It depends on where you live. If you're residence has been in Europe for the last six months, you can get an Interrail pass that is good in all the countries you want to visit. However, if you're a resident of one of those countries will have restrictions within his home country. If you're from outside Europe, then the only option would be Eurail and even the global pass does not include either the Czech Republic or Poland. You would need individual passes for those two countries.

However, a better question is whether a pass is right for you or not anyway. The passes are best if you do a lot of long range travel on the slower regional trains which might also require a lot of train changes. The higher speed trains and night trains require additional payments typically between 5 and 20 euro per train. It is often cheaper to get point-to-point tickets - there are sometimes discount fares. for example, right now, you can go between Berlin and Amsterdam for 39 euro. The standard fare is 99.40 euro. http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.e...

Right now, Berlin to Prague, is 29 euro (see the same site above.

You'll want to check the prices on the train sites closer to when you actually travel, check the regulations on the passes at that time, and do some simple calculation to determine whether a pass is right for you or not. I've done this for six or seven people in the past few months and all of them would have ended up paying more with the pass for the trips they were expecting to take. There are times when it is worth getting one, but it isn't always a bargain.

Answer 2

Yes, there are more possibilities, I think.

No there is not. Eurail passes are available for members of non-European countries only. 4 country-passes  are available, but not for the countries you require, which would be The Netherlands, Germany, Czech Republic and Poland. You may obtain a Eurail pass valid for Netherlands and Germany, but not simultaneously for Czech Republic and Poland.
