sustainable travel blog based at Lake Constance
In an attempt to travel more sustainable, with less CO2-emissions, train travel is a crucial form of transportation. Besides walking, of course. Below you will not only find a map of some of the train rides I have already written about (more to come!), you will also find some guides on train travel (such as how to find the cheapest fares or recommended smartphone apps for train travel per country) or how orientation tips at the train station (some station layouts are simply… confusing, baffling,… !)
This is not only an overview of my past rail travel reviews, but also to give you all information needed to enjoy a seamless train travel experience. If you have any further questions or require more information, please don’t hesitate and submit an anonymous blog post request.
Train Travel Guide - Train Trip Report overview
If you don’t like maps, or it’s a tad too confusing, no worries, below I have sorted all relevant blogposts per country. You want to travel within Italy, great, head to the “Italy Tab”. However, you want to travel crossing (several) borders or are interested in experiences with InterRail Pass? Check out both country-Tabs, or the general Europe Tab at the end. More to follow!
