Hi, Experienced Eurailers
This is the first time for me to use railcc. I want to go from Turkey to Italy using my Eurail Global pass. The main rout for this trip is: Istanbul (Turkey) - Bucharest (Romania) - Vienna (Austria) - Venice (Italy) - Rome (Italy).

I was wondering how can I cross the borders from Turkey (Non EU and Non schengen country) to Romania, Vienna and Italy (EU and schengen countries) ??? what are the documents needed to board the Train in Istanbul ?? Will my Eurail pass be enough to show that we will be travelling between these places via rail, should I be worrying that they may deny me because I don\'t have an entry visa for these counties??

Thanks in advance

Hi Abueldahab and welcome to rail.cc
What is you nationality? Turkish or from another country?
If you are from outside of Europe (Schengen area), you will need a Schengen visa for most of the countries. Please read here: [ux]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schengen_Area[/ux]
If you are allowed (and own a visa) to enter Bulgaria, coming from Turkey, you just show your visa and passport at the border. The Eurail pass itself is only the train ticket and has nothing to do with border corssing or to be allowed to enter a country or not. This is a visa issue.
The Eurail pass is available via our partner link to support all the free information we offer: [ux]https://rail.shop/eurail[/ux]

Hi.
To travel from Turkey to Spain by train you will need a Schengen visa like Flo explained in his post above.
