15.07.2008 WIEN Westbahnhof -GENEVA : night train :9h25 PM -9h25 AM
16.07.2008 GENEVE -PARIS
>> Here is the plan ! Do you think it's feasible?
As i'm a first-timer, I've got few questions more for you:
- How do we reserve the trains and how to pay the supplements for the night trains?
-How to get some discounts on tickets for additional countries ? For example, the first day to go to Milan from paris, I found an expensive ticket ( 95e). How can I get a discount for France (single and return) as I bought a pass?
- Finally, as there are 7 countries in my route, do you think I should by a 5-country pass or a 10 one?
Thank you very much for your help, it's greatly appreciated!!! ;) ))
Cheers and see you on the roads!

it is a hard tour ... personally I prefer to stay not only one day in a city as you will only see the typical tourist places and not the nice bars and corners to relax ... also a day on the beach just to sleep and get some water and sun is also something nice ... otherwise you are dead after such a tour !! ;)
and the answers to your questions:
- to find informations about how to get the reservations just: [u]https://rail.cc/en/interrail-train-reservation[/u]
- to book night trains the best is to do it at a station
- to get a reduced ticket from your country of residence (France) to the Italian border, go to a big station and buy it there.
- you can't buy a 5 or 10 country pass... there are only ONE country passes or GLOBAL passes available. for your tour the best is to buy a global InterRail pass ... the cheapest way when crossing 7 countries!! :)
all the best and have fun,
Peter
