Europe by Eurail : Touring Europe by Train

"Europe by Eurail" has been the train traveller's one-stop source for visiting Europe's cities and countries by rail for more than thirty years.

This comprehensive guide provides up-to-date information on fares, schedules, and pass options, as well as detailed information on more than ninety specific rail trips.

Trips start from one of twenty-four base cities on the Continent - including Copenhagen, Lyon, and Milan - and contain all the details necessary to visit historic cities, romantic villages, and scenic hamlets.

Three sample rail-tour itineraries combine several base cities and day excursions into fifteen-day rail-tour packages, complete with hotel recommendations and sightseeing options.

Packed with practical information, step-by-step directions, and highlights on whereto go and what to see and do, this book helps takes the puzzle out of European rail travel.

Extras include: practical travel tips on keeping costs down, travelling light, exchanging currency, and dealing with language differences; current photographs and detailed station and city maps; anecdotal and historical sidebars; and the latest information on the Chunnel and other Channel crossings.
