Hi.

The most comfortable route is:

[b]Lisbon by Sud Expresso to Paris[/b] (only one change - buy our reservation for the TGV already together with the supplement for the night train):
[u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-night-train/lisbon-hendaye-th-310/74[/u]

From [b]Paris to Venice[/b] you can use as well a night train, so you have a full day in Paris (buy this supplement as well already in Lisboa):

You will have to buy the ticket.
And on your route for supplements (as these are 2 night trains and 1 high speed train) - you could as well use slower and free trains on some parts of the route, but it isn't worth...

The supplements are listed if you follow the links:

Lisbon-border France: EUR 17 (seat)
Border France-Paris: TGV EUR 3-15
Paris-Venice night train: EUR 25 (6-bed-couchette)

The best pass option would be for you the 5 days in 10 InterRail Global Pass.
About single fares I can't give you details as we are only specialists for InterRail travel, not general rail travel. ;)

When arriving in Venice you will still have at least 2 days left on your pass...

no problem to ask, that's why the forum exists for. :)
if you like our forum and all the work, you can support us and buy your official Interrail pass via [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux]
delivery to Portugal is within 48h on business days.
the supplements are at the same time reservations. if you buy a supplement (which you have to do for these three trains, you will have at the same time a reservation for a seat/bed).
these supplements are available at bigger stations in Portugal.

thank you very much for your support

so the total cost of the travel will be up to my understanding is

148 pounds (global pass) + the 3 suppliments (reservations included) ?

is there any place u know in Faro Portugal where i can buy this ticket ?

Best Regards

oh nice, from the very south of Portugal ...
the only possibility to get the supplements is at the station... try it.
the InterRail pass is available via [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux] if you want to support us.
otherwise try it as well at a big station (I am not sure if it will be available in Faro?!)
and yes, you are right with the calculation. :)
