rail passes

Train travel permits

Rail passes are tickets allowing unlimited train travel within a region or network for a set period.

Popular with tourists, they offer flexibility and savings over individual fares: We bought Eurail passes for our trip through Europe.

Most require advance purchase and may restrict certain high-speed or premium services.
