city to city?

Question

im planning to have a trip: copenhagen-haburg-amsterdam-rotterdam-den haag- brussels- luxembourg-paris-copenhagen.. is it worth it to use the city-to-city tickets?
or should i use the Eurail select pass?
if i purchased the city to city tickets, am i free of any other charge(s)?

Answer 1

If you buy separate tickets you still need to pay the same surcharges, although they may be hidden in the price for the tickets.
You can buy a pass for Denmark, Germany, Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg,) and France, but I am not sure how much you will safe that way.
You can try buying 2 long distance tickets, Copenhagen to Amsterdam via Hamburg, Paris-Copenhagen, and buy tickets for direct use in between, but again, I am not sure about the prices and conditions.
I think you best go to the travel information point at the nearest international train station to where you live, as your travel has many possibilities and they will change by when you book, your age and if you qualify for Interail (or will buy Eurail.)
If you are not (yet) in Copenhagen, you can try to mail your question to a European train information center, most will be able to handle questions in English, (and can sell you all the tickets you need.)
