Hello Interrailers!
To start with, I'm going to buy 22days continous Interrail ticket.
The route of my trip is:
[b]Bremen[/b] - [b]Amsterdam[/b] - [b]Paris[/b] - Madrid - [b]Malaga[/b] - Barcelona - Milan(?)
[b]These[/b] cities mean that they are the main points of the trip. All others can be changed. I'm starting from Bremen which I will fly to before my trip. Amsterdam and Paris are a must for me to visit, Amsterdam could have 1 night there or just a full day if possible, Paris - 2 or 3nights. After Paris I'm going to other main point - Malaga and I am going to spend about a week there. Madrid and Barcelona are free to change them, if someone could offer better places to visit when going from Paris to Malaga and from Malaga. What about the last place to visit... The plan is that I'm going to search cheapest plane tickets to Lithuania. And this could be Rome or Milan.
So, would that be possible to do? What about the reservations, supplements? Where I would have to pay them, and where I could avoid them by going with the local trains or something? Or maybe it isn't worth to try avoiding additional spendings because it takes too much time? Thanks for the answer!

Hi! ;)
Bremen - Amsterdam is no problem during the day via Osnabrück and Hilversum; travel time ~4h30 I dont know when you arrive in Bremen/Airport but I'd recommend to stay overnight in Amsterdam unless you want to really rush through the main sights.
Amsterdam - Paris :arr: [u]https://rail.cc/en/amsterdam-paris-train/f1472[/u]
Paris - Malaga: The direct way would be overnight train to Irun, continue to Madrid and then finally to Malaga; travel time ~20h, additional reservation costs 6+6,50+10€
Or, if you want to make a stop in between Paris - Malaga you could go to Barcelona; take the overnight train to Latour de Carol, then go with the Petit Train Jaune :arr: [u]https://rail.cc/en/petit-train-jaune-latour-de-carol/f1343[/u] and continue to Barcelona; stay one or two days and then go with the direct AVE to Malaga (10€ reservation, attention only two daily direct trains, frequent connections via Madrid available but then with 2x10€ reservation).
While in Malaga, make use of your InterRail ticket and go ie to Granada, Ronda, Sevilla,...
On your way back you could go to Granada from Malaga and then use the overnight train to Barcelona; the next morning continue along the mediterranean coast towards Montpellier or Marseille. Then proceed to Italy via Nice.

Hello one more time. My plans have changed a little bit. I'm starting from PL-DE border (Szczecin-Pasewalk or Rzepin-Frankfurt Oder) I still don't know which one is better if I want to go to Amsterdam from there. So, any suggestions? Thanks :)

Hi,
I'd say Frankfurt is better. You have direct IC trains Berlin - Amsterdam :arr: [u]https://rail.cc/en/berlin-amsterdam-train/f2407[/u] every two hours; Frankfurt/Oder - Berlin is ~1h15min (half hourly), Szczecin - Berlin is ~2h with a change in Angermünde and less frequent connections. However, there would be one direct IC Szczecin - Amsterdam, leaving at 0613.
