Frequently Asked Questions
What is interrailing?
Interrailing means travelling by train and we are offering you a package with both trains and accommodation across Europe. There are a few buses and ferries involved too, but strictly no flights!
What accommodation types do you offer?
We offer:
Standard dorms – mixed gender hostel dorms (6-14 beds)
Small mixed gender dorms (max. 6 beds)
Female only dorms (max. 12 beds)
Private hostel dorms (ensuites not guaranteed)
3*- 5* Hotels
What do I get when I book a package?
You get all overland travel and accommodation included in the price. That is, all trains and coaches between the first city and last city on the trip and accommodation in the best hostels in each city, or in hotels if you choose this option. You’ll also get a detailed itinerary telling you exactly what trains to get and directions to your accommodation. So all that’s left for you to purchase is flights (if required) and travel insurance.
Can I travel if I'm 16 or 17?
We are more than happy to accommodate 16 and 17 year olds provided we have a written letter of consent of your parent/guardian and at least one member of your group is 18. You will also only be able to book private hostel rooms or hotels, as under 18s are not permitted to stay in shared dorms. Accommodation restrictions apply.
Will I be centrally located?
We understand that being centrally located is a huge part of the trip, and as we are travellers ourselves, we would want to be centrally located too! So we will only chose hostels and hotels which are convenient to get to from a station, and close to the center.
