Eurail Pass Worth It???

Some friends and I (we are all 21 years) are going to Europe in May Our eyes Itenary Prague like this – three days in Vienna – 3 days in Munich – Heidelberg two days – two days in Amsterdam – Belgium two days – two days is to put the Eurail pass worth it? What is the problem with "reservations" on some trains (someone told me about it). Does this mean I need to reserve spots well in advance if so, how do I do that? Is spending the night in the train's worth (how much extra does it cost?

Probably a pass will be worth it if you are careful with whom you spend and how you get it. Rick Steves (link below) has a great website to include this, but basically you find the point to point costs. These can be estimated to second class: Prague – Vienna Vienna $ 50 – $ 80 Munich Munich – Heidleberg (not Heidelberg Rick on the map, so I used Frankfurt as a point itnermediate which should lead to a lower cost or similar). 105,000,000 Heidelberg – Amsterdam $ 145 Amsterdam – Belgium $ 60 a seat so the estimat pants is $ 440 each for point to point tickets. A Threecountry, five days of second class Eurail Youth Selectpass is $ 307 each – but it does not include the Czech Republic – so you'll pay for an item ticket item, note that Benelux is considered as a country. . This pass gives you so many days in a period of time, in this case, five days over a period of time. You could even go an extra trip Besides, if you decide to. Switch Prague to Berlin and you are golden, which covers all expenses. Many European trains reservations – Especially those at high speed. All rooms on the night of the trains require reservations. You do not need to have reservations to go on one of these trains, but you can not sit in a seat that is reserved (the person who reserved it happens to.) I reserve because they are cheap (usually 3 OR5 euros) and to ensure a seat me, but I also traveled without it. If you do not have a real tight schedule without them. Just take the train and watch seats are not reserved. Note that you can sit in a seat reserved in that where it is not for the period during which the reservation is for. For example, if you travel from Salzburg to Amsterdam, and someone has a Reserve Salzburg Munich – you can sit in the Munich headquarters in Amsterdam. Sleeping on trains generally costs about the same as a bed hostel – 20-30 euros in a Bunks, schlafwagon, or accommodation Liegewagon (4-6 people in a compartment.) I consider it a great blessing a journey of seven hours or more, because instead of losing one day in my travel destination to, I travel when I sleep, for the cost of a hostel bed. You can take a shower in many train stations of Europe when you arrive.
