Have an itinerary.

Before you go, know where you’re going. Though Europe has dozens of countries that you can visit by train, it’s likely that you have a few countries that you cannot pass up on seeing. If you know that you want to see Portugal, Spain, France, and Italy while you’re in Europe, you will want to focus on buying a rail pass that allows you to step foot in each of these countries. Though you can buy individual tickets for each country, having a set itinerary and finding a rail pass that mocks your itinerary is must more ideal.

    It’s a good point about deciding your itinerary before you go, but @twitter-305534972:disqus is right. It can be much cheaper if you book point to point tickets in advance. For example a train going tomorrow from Paris to Nice will probably cost around £100, but if you look 90 days ahead or more (when available) you can do the same trip for a quarter of the price, around £28.

    This is not true at all, quite often unless you’re going to take lots and lots of trains, point topoint tickets are cheaper, especially when you book 3 or 4 months in advance. Plus you have made no mention of reservations… even if you have a railpass, you’ll need to buy seat reservations on many trains. Plus passes are not valid on some trains like the Eurostar so do your homework first.
