Lease a car in Europe

by Beausoleil

If you are using the car for 21 or more days (17 or more with Citroen), you should consider the buy-back (lease) program. We always do this and it is wonderful. You get the brand new car of your choice. We use the Peugeot 207 automatic for ourselves and also when we have one of our daughters with us. Four people would need the 307 or 407.You have full insurance coverage, 24-hour roadside assistance and a new car. We always pick up and drop off in France so we don't have to pay extra charges but you can get the car nearly anyplace in Europe.On our last trip someone managed to back into our parked car and put a huge dent in one side. We told the Peugeot folks when we returned the car and they said not to worry about it. We were impressed.We have used Auto France the last few times but AutoEurope.com and Kemwel.com also have the Open Europe Lease Program with Peugeot. Auto FranceAuto...

Trains in Europe

by Beausoleil

Depending on where you live, you may fly to Europe. Once there, you have many choices. We usually lease a car unless we're only visiting cities. If you don't want to drive in Europe, there is a fabulous train system and although the prices differ from country to country, it is an excellent way to get around. Most train stations are in the historic centers of the towns so you can walk anyplace you want to go. If the train station (usually the newer TGV fast trains) is outside town, there will be a shuttle service. It's meant to be convenient.Each country has its own train web site so I'll list several. If you only speak English, the German site at the top of the list is the easiest to use.Germany Official German Rail siteFrance Official French Rail site (site in French only)Italy Official Italian Rail siteSwitzerland Official Swiss Rail siteHungary and Europe in English Official Hungarian...

EasyJet is Easy and Enjoyable

by riorich55

On our second trip to Europe we wanted to expand our country list and since they were a bit farther apart then our first trip we added some local airline travel to our itinerary this time around. After asking a few questions on VT forums about various European based airlines and doing some of my own research I found that EasyJet had the best price and routes for our 3 flights.I was a little tentative at first and could have gotten even better prices if I had booked sooner, but all in all I still got some really good prices for the flights. Our first flight was from Paris Orly to Rome. We arrived in plenty of time from central Paris via the RER and OrlyVal trains. We first checked our 2 bags which combined were several kg under the limit. I had prepaid 11 Euros for each bag and the combined weight needed to be under I believe 44 kg. My wife's alone would have been over 22 kg, but I pack...

bus from girona to marseille and al.

by gwened

the new AVE fast train line between Barcelona and Figueres is open and running now. Open by PM Rajoy and Pres of Catalunya Mas last week.Girona is another thing usually is where ryanair lands as Barcelona airport lol! From there to Marseille is two countries away with still track train change at Cerbere or port Bou. The AVE is working its way there to eliminate this but will take some time.now solutions, eurolines bus company has the runhttp://www.eurolines.fr/en/frogbus founde by British in 2008 only does the run from girona to perpignan not marseille.Marseille will be busy its the European Cultural Capital for 2013. But worth it.hope it helps

Best way to see the Rhine

by Maryimelda

This is a wonderful way of seeing some of the most spectacular parts of the Rhine at small cost. I took a KD Ferry from Koblenz to St Goarshausen and it was one of the highlights of my entire European holiday. The KD Ferries run between Mainz and Cologne and pass by countless villages and towns with castles in abundance. The countryside around the river is bedecked with vineyards and I could not help wondering how the vineyard workers managed to tend to the vines and pick the grapes standing at what looks to be perilously steep angles. To me it seemed as though they would need to have one leg shorter than the other!The reaches of the Rhine between Koblenz and Bingen are often thought to be the very best as regards the very magnificence which is the mighty Rhine.Ferries can be boarded at many towns along the way and are not very expensive to ride. They are well equipped and beautifully...

Beware the Pilatus Gondolas

by Maryimelda

If you choose to do the golden tour to Pilatus please be warned about the gondolas. When coming down from the mountain you will board a cable car which really affords the most magnificent views over the Alps and Lake Lucerne and of course the lush green mountainsides and valleys.When you alight from the cable car you will then be routed to the gondolas to take you on your next leg of the journey. If like me, you have limited mobility of any sort such as arthritic knees you may very well have a difficult time getting on and off the gondolas. They don't stop moving at all and so you have to board very quickly and get off very quickly. I found this very frightening and compounded an already scary situation by not realising that the gondola stops twice on the way down. If you are heading back to Lucerne you need to stay on the gondola till the second stop at Kriens and then hope against hope...

THE NORTHERNMOST TRAIN STATION IN THE UK

by DAO

Thurso Train Station is the end of the line – quite literally. It is the northernmost Rail Station in Great Britain. Located on Princes Street, this small station is they way to travel south to Inverness where you can then access the entire British rail network. The station was opened on 28 July 1874. It was actually selected for closure in the 1960s, but survives to this day so you can travel to the very top of the UK mainland. The station itself is open Monday-Saturday 09:50-16:54. For some reason some websites show them opening 1 hour late on Saturday. I base the times on the sign on the wall inside that station. There is a side gate to get to the single platform (of course!) outside of opening hours. You can buy a ticket on the train without any problem.During opening hours you have:• Rail staff for any questions, tickets, assistance• Accessible unisex toilet• Induction loop at...
