Interrail Global Pass

People resident in Europe, Turkey or Russia can book an Interrail Pass. The Pass is non-transferable.

You can explore 33 countries with just a single Interrail Pass.

The Interrail Global Pass gives you the following options: 

• 4, 5 or 7 travel days of your choice within one month
• 10 or 15 travel days of your choice within two months
• 15 or 22 consecutive travel days
• 1, 2 or 3 months of travel starting on any day of your choice

The prices for an Interrail Global Pass vary from country to country. Some Global Passes are available from as little as EUR 194 euros.

• Children under the age of 4 travel for free and do not need their own Interrail Pass.
• Up to two children under the age of 12 can accompany an adult free of charge. An Interrail Youth Pass must be booked for each additional child.
• Children under the age of 12 travelling alone need an Interrail Youth Pass.
• Children aged 12 and over need an Interrail Youth Pass.

Note: The free Child Pass for children under 12 can be booked together with an adult pass.

The accompanying adult does not have to be a relative, but must be at least 18 years old at the time of the trip.
