What is Interrail?

Interrail is when you can buy one train pass that lets you travel all over Europe with more than 40,000 destinations in 33 countries to choose from.

Travelling by train lets you have more freedom with holidaying, with the less strict times for travel compared to planes thanks to them being more regular.

The pass gives you access to 40 railway and ferry companies in 33 countries, and if you are someone that likes to sit back and relax and watch the views as you travel, the Interrail is perfect.

Giving you the option to travel through the mass amounts of land and see them in all their glory, you can see everything from seaside towns to mountain scenes and more.
