Nothing beats the European network for range and frequency. And with so many trains to choose from, you can decide whether you want to zoom from A to B or take a more leisurely route.

Travel Tips
-Always carry travellers cheques. If you lose them or have them stolen you can usually claim the money back.
-To save money, travel overnight as the accommodation is generally cheaper.
-Make sure you get insurance. Backpackers and tourists are a prime target for thieves.
-Use a small padlock on your backpack and keep valuables with you in your money belt/day bag.
-Never pack too many clothes. They can easily be washed and dried overnight.
-Keep a couple of carrier bags handy to wrap dirty shoes or rubbish in.
-Wear a hat or bandana to protect your head from hours in the sun.
-Remember, you may be travelling in countries with different climates, so be prepared for all weathers.
-Take a small first aid kit containing the following: plasters, antihistamine tablets, pain killers, crepe bandage, antacids, antiseptic cream, alka-seltzer (for those mornings after!). Some of these items can be bought abroad, but it is good to have them in case there are no pharmacies nearby.
-Remember, the smaller and lighter your rucksack, the happier you will be.
