Hey,
In september i'm going on interrail in Germany. We take a one country pass for days. I come from Belgium and we are first going to visit Koln. But our pass will not be available because that would be a lost day. So we take a go pass one from Ghent to Aachen for just 8 euro. And then I would buy a ticket from aachen to koln. But when i fill in on the site of db, they could give me a price. Whow can I buy a one way ticket from Aachen to Koln??

Hi Ben.

What date you want to travel exactly?
And how many travelers you are in total?

Then I can have a look for you on the best option. You can not buy via [ux]https://rail.shop/bahn[/ux] , as you are traveling in a public transportation network ([ux]http://www.kvb-koeln.de[/ux]). There you pay EUR 17 per person.
Other option is a Ihr SchönerTagTicket NRW of Deutsche Bahn for EUR 42. Including up to 5 persons and traveling full NRW. So you could add that day as well Düsseldorf and other places.

And it depends on the day you travel: try to book the full route Ghent to Köln via [ux]https://rail.shop/bahn/Gent-St-Pieters/Cologne-Hbf[/ux]. There you can find tickets for EUR 19 per person in total!
As earlier you book as higher the chance to get this cheap price.

Please be fair and support all the free information we offer on the railcc-project. Buy your official Interrail pass via our partner link [ux]https://rail.shop/interrail[/ux] (click right before you order and turn off ad-blockers). rail.cc is official partner of interrail.eu. And you get a free PLUS upgrade: [u]https://rail.cc/en/plus[/u]
Thank you! :)

Hi.
I looks like special prices for EUR 19 are sold out for your travel date... only [b]EUR 29/30[/b] left via [ux]https://rail.shop/bahn[/ux] or [ux]https://rail.shop/beurope[/ux]
Now it is your decision... either one offer from the links above for EUR 29/30
Or the combination of Go Pass to Aachen (EUR 8) . And from there the point to point ticket for EUR 17, total of [b]EUR 25[/b].
Pete :)

hi,
It can even cheaper. When I take a 4 day one country pass, I only pay 10 euro extra if I buy a 3 day one country pass. So if have only pay 10 euro instead of 17 euro. :D
