Hello, I and three my friends are planning to travel to Europe in June. We have two weeks holiday, so we are going to buy the 10in22 interrail pass, and we want to visit these cities: We are from lithuania, so we start our trip from Warsaw next Berlin-Amsterdam-Brussels-Paris-Marssele-Rome-Vienna-Warsaw. So it's a big circle across the Europe. What do you think is it doible in two weeks or maybe we can add some more cities in south france or Italy? We want to travel as much as possible on night trains, but as far as I watched, in this route there isnt a lot of these trains, so what do you recommend? Maybe we should change our route or what we can do?
Tell me in which cities we should stay overnight, and which only visit by day time?
Sorry for so many questions but I will travel for the first time, so I would like to get as much information as i can. Because
Thanks in advance

Hi Linas!
Your route is doable in two weeks, but it would be of course better if you had more than two weeks to be able to stay longer in each city and make better use of the 10in22 pass.
You need a reservation for the Eurocity trains from Warsaw to Berlin, but it is free when bought at a station in Poland.
For your trip Amsterdam to Brussels have a look at the blog where I just posted a short post about this route.
To get from Brussels to Paris I recommend to travel first to Lille and then either take a TGV (reservations via [ux]https://rail.shop/sncf/reservation[/ux]) or continue with local trains via Amiens. There will be a blog post about this route as well before summer. :)
From Paris to Marseille I recommend to go with the fast TGV, reservations see link above.
From Marseille to Rome it is a really long journey along the coast, but you can travel without extra reservations. I would recommend to make a short intermediate stop, for instance at the Cinque Terre.
From Rome to Vienna and from Vienna to Rome you can use night trains: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-night-train[/u]
Also you could think about going from Warsaw to Szczecin with the night train and then continue with local trains to Berlin - however this takes quite long and since Berlin hostels and night life are great I would recommend to travel during the day and enjoy the night in Berlin. :)
You could also take the Paris - Nice night train and get off at Toulon, then travel back from there to Marseille which does not take very long.
To support the free information and the forum on railcc, please be fair and buy your official Interrail pass via our railcc partner link: [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux]
Thank you! :)
