Hi there.
Me and 2 friends are planning to fly to Istanbul and use the interail service to travel from Istanbul to Benicassim festival in Spain.
However it we are very inexperienced at planning such a holiday experience. Is there any chance anybody has any advice on;
1) [b]Locations[/b] - We would like to spend the most of our time in Eastern Europe (Budapest and the Croatian coast are examples) any other great places to visit?
2) [b]Routes[/b] - We will be traveling for 4 weeks after visiting Istanbul for 1 week. Any help on what routes are best to take to navigate through Eastern Europe, northern Italy, Southern France, then to Spain?
3) Any thing else anyone would suggest to help?
Thanks for any help you can give me

Hi!
At first, read this topic as it will help you a lot with basic planning of your trip and how to use our forum: [u]https://rail.cc/en/first-interrail-tour/f3303[/u]
Then, some suggestions on how your trip could look like - we can help you planning in more detail, but it'll be better if you already have an idea on where you wanna go. ;)
Istanbul > Beograd > Podgorica/Bar (Montenegro) > by bus to Kotor and then Ploce > Mostar > Sarajevo > Zagreb > Split (beaches) > Budapest > Venezia > Firenze > Milano > Nice > Marseille > Petit Train Jaune [u]https://rail.cc/en/petit-train-jaune-latour-de-carol/f1343[/u] > Barcelona > Benicassim
