Hi,

A friend and I have booked a return flight to Split from the UK, allowing ourselves approximately 18 days for the following route. Please comment on its feasibility. I realise that we may be being too ambitious, given the relatively short duration of the trip, but we are keen to visit Budapest, Istanbul and Belgrade in particular.

Split-Budapest-Bucharest-Istanbul-Thessaloniki-Belgrade-Split

Thanks very much,

Dominic

Hi Dominic.

You can definitely do it using overnight trains.

[b]Split-Budapest[/b] (the night train doesn't run every day - but there are several day train connections as well via Zagreb):
