This is a route I\'m planning. It\'s just a guideline. I can stay longer somewhere, or skip something (except Nis, staying there from 4-11). There is some flexibility (you can see that because there are several days \'left\' in Vienna). Any comments?

Couple of questions:
- Which trains should I reserve and which not?
- The ferry from Venice to Patras takes roughly 2 nights. Is deckspace comfortable enough (is it outside? || ) or should I take a seat? Also: how, when and where to reserve?
- Taking the bus from Bar to Dubrovnik in one day. Is it possible?
- Is Zagreb worth to visit?
- I was thinking maybe skipping Budapest, Bratislava and Vienna (leave it for another time, together with north-east Europe) and instead go to Sofia and Bucharest between Nis and Belgrade-Bar. I\'d be visiting Ljubljana to and then go straight back to Holland. Is that a good idea?

This would be a first time for me. Already excited :)

Hi.

Nice route.
I definitely recommend to [b]reserve the night train CNL Munich-Venezia[/b]. You can do this as well only and get the reservations send to you at home:

[u]https://rail.cc/en/night-train/germany/de[/u]

I always stayed on deck on the ferries and it was okay for one night. As I normally use the [b]ferry Bari-Patras[/b] (one night):

Concerning [b]Bar-Dubrovnik[/b]: I know there is a bus connection at least once per day. But I don't have details.

Zagreb is worth a stay, as well Ljubljana. Bucharest, Belgrade are also interesting. If you want, add Krakow (Poland)...

Peter :)
