Rail
Travel through Europe with 
The Inter-Rail pass is one of the easiest way to see
Europe. Go anywhere - stop anywhere - travel in comfort
with minimum hassle.
Zonal Inter-Rail cards offer the passenger better value
than ever before, allowing the traveller to choose from
eight geographical zones, so that they only pay for
travel to places that they want to visit. Alternatively,
for the really ambitious traveller, the 'All Zone Pass'
gives total freedom of Europe from Finland in the North
to Greece in the South from Turkey in the East and Portugal
in the West. Discounts are available on most ferry
services between the UK and mainland Europe plus certain
rail services on the continent.
