What is the best website for booking trains in Europe?


What is the best website for booking trains in Europe? In most cases, the best way to purchase European train tickets is through a third-party booking website like Omio or Trainline. These services are much more user-friendly than booking directly through each country's national rail service.


Can I bring luggage on Omio?

Generally, at least one piece of hand luggage is allowed on board free of charge.


Is it safe to buy on Omio?

Omio seems to be a legitimate site that helps you book your travel, however it is definitely worth doing some due diligence before making a booking.


What is the most reliable train company in Italy?

High-speed trains always require reservations. Trenitalia, Italy's state-run rail network, operates most of the high-speed trains. Others are run by a private company, Italo. The two options are competitively priced and reasonably similar, though they sometimes serve different train stations.


Which is better Italo or Trenitalia?

Like I mentioned above, Italo is usually cheaper than Trenitalia but because the cabins on lower-class tickets aren't the most comfortable, I'll usually consider Italo only for trains that are less than 2 or 3 hours long unless the Comfort ticket class is cheaper than Trenitalia.


Is ItaliaRail the same as Trenitalia?

ItaliaRail is an official partner of Trenitalia, the national railway of Italy. We are the largest foreign seller of train tickets in Italy. We have direct, real-time connectivity to Trenitalia's schedule and reservation system, allowing us to give you the best fares and most up-to-date availability.


How reliable is Trainline?

Yes, Trainline is legitimate. Their app and website connect directly to rail and coach carriers' ticketing platforms so every ticket you buy through Trainline is valid for travel.


Does Trainline work in Europe?

Trainline combines offers, ticket information and timetables for most European rail companies. This makes booking a train ticket for your whole journey as easy as pie. You don't even have to worry about what train operator you're travelling with - simply book, turn up at the station and go.
