I am very confused as to how this whole interail system works. I would like to travel world war 2 sites around europe starting from london to France. In this journey I would like to cover germany (berlin) amongst other cities in germany, Poland (concerntration camp sites), amsterdam etc with world war 2 historic sites.

I am unsure how the ticket works, how many times it can be used? can it be used to get around the city im in etc?

Please can someone help suggest routes and explain how the ticket works? And how I get the price of the route i wish to take? Also do i have to arrange myself when i have chosen the routes as to where I stay and the tours I can go on etc?

Thanks. :|

Hi ...

as traveling in more than 2/3 big countries, a GLOBAL InterRail Pass will be the cheapest one.
There are different options available. Maybe the 10 days within 22 travel days will be a good choice for you!?

Then you have a period of 22 days in which you can select your 10 days of travel flexible and free. just fill them in manually when you need them - or chose a continous pass with which you can travel on every day as often as you want.
ONE travel day is from 0001h in the morning until 2359h at night - use as much trains as you want.
there is a special rule for night trains: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-night-train[/u]

to leave your country of residence (where you can not travel for free) have a look on these links:
[u]https://rail.cc/blog/from-london-to-amsterdam-with-the-dutchflyer/[/u]
[u]https://rail.cc/en/london-paris-eurostar-train/f1805[/u]

you have to plan your routes by yourself:
[u]https://rail.cc/en/search-interrail-route[/u]

on some trains you have to pay supplements:

and for night trains and special trains have a look at the country topics of this forum ...

it sounds difficult - but it isn't ... just try around a little bit... and enjoy the freedom of flexible rail travel. Peter :)
