Hi, I'm travelling alone to Paris by Plane in July.
My plan:
Stay in Paris 5 nights. Travel to London by train.
Stay in London 3 nights. Travel to Amsterdam by train.
Stay in Amsterdam for 2 days and travel to Berlin by night train.
Stay in Berlin 3 days and travel to Prague by train.
Stay in Prague 2 days and travel to Florence by train. Don't know how... Maybe Prague-Münich-Florence? Any recommendation?
Stay in Florence 2 days and then travel to Barcelona by plane.

Can I use a pass for this? or should I get individual tickets?
Thanks
Manuel

Hi Manuel.
I recommend a rail pass. Maybe Paris-London by normal tickets as the Eurostar train is very expensive.
Then by ferry to the Netherlands (London-Harwich by normal train ticket).
Ferry to Amsterdam and the rest by a 5 days in 10 InterRail Pass.
Have a stop in between in Munich.

[b]Paris-London[/b]: single ticket
Or by InterRail (but not recommended):

[b]London-Amsterdam[/b]: London-Harwich on single ticket. The ferry: [u]https://rail.cc/blog/from-london-to-amsterdam-with-the-dutchflyer/[/u]
By supplement free IC trains to Amsterdam.

[b]Amsterdam-Berlin[/b]: no extra fees, except if using the night train:

[b]Berlin-Prague[/b]: no extra fees.

[b]Prague-Munich[/b]: no extra fees.
[u]https://rail.cc/en/prague-munich-train/f5109[/u]

[b]Munich-Florence[/b]: I recommend the night train. Comfortable.
