Putting off college
for a while? Just graduate and not ready
for what the world has to offer? Clearly,
the best thing you can do is, get a rucksack, buy
the Eurail Youth Pass and take off for
a while to “find yourself.”
If you're under 26 on the first day
of travel, you can get a 2nd class rail
pass on the cheap rates and visit up to 18
European countries (whether they border
each other or not). The Eurail Youth
Pass must be used over consecutive days
(in other words, use the days or lose
them). Choose from 5 different pass
durations either: for 15 or 21 days, or 1, 2 and
3 months of travel. It just depends
on how long you want to escape from the reality
of living on your own, back home. Thinking
the price to be high? Remember, you're
buying all your tickets up front with
American dollar, which is a lot more
cheaper than the Euro. Plus,
you don't have to wait in big lines to buy
tickets or attempt to speak a load of
languages.
>Conditions:
Passes must be validated prior to the
first train journey. Passes must be
validated within 6 months of issued date.
If an overnight train starts after 7pm
on a validated Eurail Selectpass, the
passholder must enter the next day's
date on the pass, provided it falls
within the validity of the pass.

age of 4-11 years, are charged half the adult

days, 21 days, 1 month, 2 months or
3 months of unlimited train traveling.
