Eurail Global Pass

Eurail Countries

Every Eurail Global pass is valid in all 23 shaded countries.

Best Value: The 23-country Eurail Global Pass allows you to travel freely through most of Western Europe, from Portugal to Finland to Greece. Unlike the Select Eurail Pass, the Eurail Global Pass offers a consecutive-day version (now called "Continuous") — particularly convenient for the whirlwind traveler who's riding the rails almost every day. Eurail Global is also the only pass with a three-month option, making it especially popular with student backpackers. Saver prices include a 15% discount for two to five travelers who order and travel together. Most families choose to keep youths together with adults on a first-class Saverpass, forgoing a second-class youth discount. Learn more about how European rail passes work.

Reservations: Seat and sleeper reservations cost extra and are required on many types of train, as indicated in train schedules. For example, fast trains within or to/from France limit places for rail pass holders and can sell out weeks ahead.

Coverage: Travel in Britain, across the English Channel by Eurostar, and in parts of Eastern Europe is not covered by Eurail passes but those areas have their own regional rail passes. Although nearly all trains (fast, medium, slow, international, day, night, etc.) are covered by rail passes, our regional pages list some private trains that are not covered. Greece does not currently have train connections to any neighboring country.

Paris-Italy Route News: Paris-Milan-Venice night trains no longer accept rail passes as of December 11, 2011. There is no direct Paris-Florence-Rome overnight service until mid-2012. The "reservation fee" for Paris-Lyon-Torino-Milan day trains has increased to $80 in 2nd class or $109 in 1st when using a Eurail pass, limited places available, and is not sold online. Daytime connections via Switzerland (e.g., transfering in Basel, Geneve, or Zürich) may now be the more economical choice for Eurail pass travelers. See more European Rail News.

Youth BritRail Bonus: Youths under age 26 who have any Eurail-brand pass (Global, Select, Regional, Ireland, etc.) can save about 37% versus regular youth prices on many BritRail passes. See the Eurail Passholder Youth Discount section on our BritRail page.

Eurail Global Flexipass Charity Special: Look for his offer to start in March. Last year, we raised $28,000 to help Bread for the World advocate for the homeless and hungry.
