We're curious to know: when was your first Interrail trip?

@KymriskaDraken The uk makes such a great interrail trip!

@Interrail That was in 2024 around the UK. I did a similar trip last year.

@BritinBelgium Amazing! Where did you head on that first trip?

@Interrail 1996 aged 21, loved it!

@AnettHalbstunde That’s one way to wake up 😳 Night trains really do deliver the most unexpected stories!

@Interrail The nighttrain from Prague to Zurich back in 2008 stopping in the middle of the night at an unplanned location. Just having woken up, we were checking the station sign - "Amstetten". It was the scene of a crime we knew only from the newspaper. My friend shot up to lock the door😅

Which night train ride was the most memorable to you and why?

@mblk Those are some iconic picks. Bar to Belgrade is such a classic, and Palermo to Rome with the ferry crossing really feels like a journey within a journey!

@Interrail Bar ~> Beograd becaude one of best routes full of tunnels and bridges, Bucuresti -> Budapest because it is long journey across nature, Palermo ~> Roma because you travel on boat

Two friends set out from Brussels to Istanbul with one goal: do it by train, with Katie on her handcycle and Archie by her side. Read their story to see how plans changed, why support mattered, and how the journey became more than the route! bit.ly/49KgjKc

From the art nouveau architecture of Subotica to the medieval fortresses and Roman remains on the Danube River, there is so much history waiting to be unearthed. Discover more hidden gems of Serbia at the link 🇷🇸: interrail.eu/en/plan-your-t…

Good news for rail travellers! From 15 January, the Caledonian Sleeper will add a new stop in Birmingham, creating a direct overnight connection in the region to Aberdeen, Fort William and Inverness. That means easier access than ever to the stunning Scottish Highlands. 🇬🇧

@SharpStu Hi Stuart, it looks like the extra amount may be from the optional refund protection being added to the total. If you didn’t mean to include it and the price still seems off, please contact our Customer Support so they can check your cart and clarify the charges before purchase!

@Interrail I am trying to purchase two 5 day Global Plus passes (for 2 adults) and the total price is showing as £16greater than the cost of the two passes, why? There are no booking fees and no explanation.
