hi me and my friend are wanted to get a ferry from Belgium back to England since it will work out cheaper than the eurostar train through france. Could someone tell us how to book the ferry and how to apply the 30% discount? also when arriving back in the UK can we i get a train to my home town using my pass?

Hi!

Which ferry are you looking at? Dutchflyer Hoek van Holland - Harwich? [u]https://rail.cc/blog/from-london-to-amsterdam-with-the-dutchflyer/[/u]

To get the discount, call +44 (0)8445 762 762 or book with the discount code EURAIL on the Dutch (!) Stena Line website [u]http://www.stenaline.nl/[/u]

Since this year, two trips in your country of residence are included in your Interrail pass. Keep in mind that you need to use a travel day for these trips in case you have a Flexi Pass!

You can buy seat reservations for the bus at a train station - in Germany of course, but also in other countries on the continent.

The bus leaves Düsseldorf Hbf at 2130, stops at Eindhoven and Antwerpen and arrives at London Victoria at 0720 the following day. Runs Thu, Fri, Sat, however booking seems to be only possible at rather short notice, at [ux]http://plan.rail.cc/[/ux] the bus is only shown until 30 April.
