Europe by Eurail 2001

Meer over het boek

A Eurailpass in the hand is better than anything in the bush; it's a key to Europe, a fare-thee-well to transportation hassles, a ticket to spontaneous travel and the pleasures of the rail. For each of 17 countries, the authors provide particulars on banks, currency, telephone codes, and regional rail systems and passes. But the real heart of the guide lies in the base city planning. Take Finland. They tell all you need to arrive in Helsinki by air, train, or ship, how to get around the city, what day excursions are worthwhile and why (for Helsinki, that's Hanko, Lahti, Tampere, and Turku), and train schedules for each. Train connections are provided between base cities and countries, as well. It's a handy way to organize your trip, and their useful guide makes it work.
