Train Tip
Overnight trains not only save you money on accommodations, but get you to your destination early the next day, giving you a full day of sight seeing. Board overnight trains after 7:00pm to conserve money and valuable travel days. Only the day of your arrival will be counted on your railpass, therefore you save a day of travel. Additionally, sleeper and couchette supplements cost less than a hotel room. Private sleepers are approximately $80-$90 dollars per person per reservation, while the couchettes are only about $25-35 per person. You can make these reservations at any train station ticket window.
