I think I will hitchhike. It's all about the "experience" of not knowing if I will get murdered.
🤣😂
Hahaha
That took an unexpected turn 😅
Said the murdered person
😄 🤣 😂 😆

Great information! Me and my wife are planning to travel Europe between 2021 and 2022. Nice starbucks global icon mugs you got there as well!
Thanks for noticing!! I used to collect them when I worked at Starbucks in university but then I went backpacking and buying a mug per city wasn’t sustainable anymore 🙈
So glad to found this!!! I'm backpacking next year! Thank you so much!

Hi there. Would love to have your support for my channel too @arunstravelpedia
Nice tips!
Thanks for the info Christina. Once we can travel again I'm planning to spend a few years AirBnB-ing round the world, seeing all the places I've always wanted to. Great tip about regional railways, which can also be a better way to see the country - and you can just turn up and take a bike on board! I'll be going through your tubes for more tips. BTW, as someone definitely over 30 :) I've looked at Eur/InterRail and they never seem worth it. And it's more fun to plan on the day anyway!
EU rail ticket are usually very expensive, of course if you use a TrainPal coupon it will be cheaper😂😂😂
Have you ever bought tickets using TrainPal? Others say there are many discounts there.
excellent video, thank you! :)
I would also add that in some countries in Europe, don't discount renting a car and doing a road trip. 🚗 I was in Bosnia & Herzegovina this summer, and a whole week's car rental (quite new, nice to drive) was only 120 EUROS, and fuel was really cheap too. That gave me freedom to explore anywhere I wanted, and get to places where it would have been impossible (or at least impractical) to take buses/trains, etc. 😃
Xennial Traveller ah so true!! I actually don’t drive so don’t rent a car too often hehe but I do love a good road trip (as a passenger!) Car rentals in Europe can be super tricky with hidden costs, but you’re right - when you can find a good deal and share with a group, it can be really good. Maybe a topic for another video!
@@HappytoWander Hidden costs are certainly something to look out for (like you pointed out with airlines), but with car hire they are fairly manageable - you can even get excess insurance to cover any potential crashes. Road trips are super fun!
Oh thx for your advice☺️ but railway is the most convenient way to travel around the Europe 🌏
Coming from Ireland 🇮🇪 and would love to see some European counties. I'd also live to use the channel tunnel in England
Awesome 👍
I love watching your videos as I plan to make trips with my family. I hope you will make more soon with updates too :) Mahalo
Hi there. Would love to have your support for my channel too @arunstravelpedia
This video is perfect and was exactly what I was looking for! You just earned a sub from me!
Great info! ☺️👌🏻do you know if there is something similar to gopass 1 from belgium in austria? Thank you 😊
Looking for the best/cheapest way to travel around Germany. Would prefer rail but open to flights, too.
Some countries are still relatively expensive, so it is best to use discounts.
Thank you .
Great video, thanks for explaining about the buses. I have used Eurail twice now and I love it. It is NOT for everyone however. But for me I just like to explore and have the option to get on a train or off without an absolute plan. I am traveling again in September of to Europe and I will be using a rail pass. I actually planned out the places I am "planning" to go. I priced the tickets as if I was buying them today, 30 days in advance and 90 days in advance. Huge difference in the cost. The cheapest individual tickets cost $475 and the price of the pass is $417. I get the senior discount. The passes are on sale right now so the pass now costs $360. Those advance tickets are for a specific train. I will have to pay some reservation fees, but I can go where I want, basically when I want so the pass is what I choose. Again not for everybody. If you are not planning to roam aimlessly, then probably not the way to go. Since I want to be able to change my mind and my route I like the flexibility of the eurail pass. Again thanks for this video, I am going to check out some of the things you pointed out. One tip from me, download the free Eurail app and check it out.
Yessss! Tourists can also buy it for saving🥺 and I also know a cheaper channel😎
Thank you for sharing! I also heard that trainpal often have some great discounts to saving money.
Can you please talk or explain on how to get internet access in europe example portugal and spain. Thanks
I wasn’t able to book it, but once I found a $360 round trip flight Vancouver Canada to dublin Ireland
Oh shit! I just remembered how far west Vancouver is.
seems like you're focusing on 'solo' travelers... any suggestions if you're traveling with wife and 3 children from Spain, to Italy, to Denmark, and Sweden?
I flew from Dublin to Scotland for 5 euros with Ryanair 😎
Flying can be cheap but its always bad for the environment
@@PalkkiTT ohhhh🙄
So book early but what’s early? A few days in advance? Weeks or months? :)
Thanks
thanks so much for the tips! But I can't open the checklist in the link down below😭don't actually know why

Hello dear...What is cheapest way to travel from Paris to Zurich?
Please how do I get from Estonia to Amsterdam
Hi there i am planning to travel to paris brussels and amsterdam this november can you suggest me how to travel and plan my trip cheaply?
TIA.
Trainpal has a discount recently, you can check it out
So if you're between 27-50 there will be no discounts?
I like to road trip around Europe, yea I know, not the cheapest but you can get off the beaten path and you're not on any timetable.
Hey I'm from india and I'lll be traveling to France in November for my internship for 6 months and I have literally no idea which one would be the best and the cheapest way to travel. I'll mostly be traveling from Paris to Nice. Could you please help me ??🙏
Hi there. Would love to have your support for my channel too @arunstravelpedia
Im planning to go to Europe in 8 m months with five kids, do you recommend making reservations and buying easy jet tickets inside of Europe from now to save money ? or should I do it one month before ? my plan is Madrid paris London Switzerland and Italy
Just make sure if you hitch hike, you carry some ‘heat’ just in case you need to bring the pain
Have you booked yet? I would book as soon as possible (within a year) and I would also not take a flight between Paris and London, but rather a train (or a Flixbus if you're really going for cheap) and probably between Switzerland and Italy as well.
Oh and for train travel: a lot of long distance train tickets get "released" 92 days in advance, so that's the ideal moment to try and book them.
which months of the year in 2024 are consider off peak and shoulder travelling season?
It's can be different depending on the region. Generally speaking summer is one of the busiest tourist seasons in Europe, and there are a lot of tourists during Christmas.Speaking of travel, I recommend checking out Trainpal for some great discounts on train tickets.
😍😍😍😍😍
I would never hitchhiking because I don't trust people that much.
I just booked my ticket to Brussels for a professional development conference. I will be in Brussels in March. I am still unleashing the hotel information and trying to compare hostels. Any advice? The conference is on 3 days Wed, Thur, Friday!
👍🏾
Hi there. Would love to have your support for my channel too @arunstravelpedia
Hitchhiking is not safe for anyone . Could not see very clearly as the video was very dark.
To suggest hitchhiking is just plain stupid.
how do i get there ? I`m searching the internet all i can find are how to travel cheap and where to go..i know where I want to go..how do i get there? legally..passports visas all that ?
I will fly over the world in no money
Are you Chinese heritage?
very interesting but you talk too fast for forigners....
Sorry Iam a little bit confused HOW DID YOU GET FROM PARIS TO LONDON BY BUS ??? There is something that I don't know ????
There is a tunnel or something
There's a £5 billion underwater tunnel between the UK Island and the continent.
@@tiagofeitoza227 sounds like a good deal
Hi there. Would love to have your support for my channel too @arunstravelpedia
Paying for water anyway is plain stupid
Hitchhiking? Really? A girl could get trafficked. I wouldn't risk it.
