Hi there! Me and my boyfriend are planning an Interrail this Summer. We haven't bought the passes yet as we can only do that 3 months ahead!.
We are planning to buy the 15 days continuous pass and I'm wondering if this route is realistic? Or i should cut (if so, probably Warsaw, Ljubljana or Venice?)
Paris-Amsterdam-Berlin-Warsaw-Prague-Vienna-Ljubljana-Bled-Venice-Rome
We are probably flying from Portugal to Paris (since it's very cheap in Ryanair) and then carry on our trip. In the end we would also fly from Rome to Lisbon.
I searched a bit and I know that some of these require reservations, but I had some trouble finding the costs! How much do you think it will cost in total? And also, when it comes the time to make the reservations where can I make them online? Like the Paris- Amsterdam route?
I really needed some opinions on the risk of our route, because we plan to buy the tickets as soon as possible and I would need to know if I'm in Rome at the time of the departure!
Thanks for the help :D :D

Hi!
No need to rush and buy your passes three months in advance! I'd recommend to order your passes four to two weeks before departure via our partner link to interrail.eu: [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux] to support our work - thank you!
In 2016 there will be a new range of Interrail passes available; there will be passes with 7/10/15 travel days within one month which should be perfect for your trip.
You will need reservations from:
Paris - Amsterdam
Berlin - Warsaw
Warsaw - Prague
Venice - Rome
You can buy the reservation for Venice - Rome online at the website of Trenitalia but it is absolutely sufficient to buy it locally at a ticket machine or ticket desk in Italy (you will have to select the Global Pass option to get your Interrail reservation).
The other reservations are not available online, you will have to buy it locally at a station.
For Paris - Amsterdam I would recommend to travel with slower regional trains anyway to save the expensive (~25€) reservation for the direct train.
