Actually this would be even more helpful! :

Ok,

I%26#39;m going, in order from :

London

Paris

Amsterdam

Berlin

Prague

Italy(florence)

Italy(Rome)

I have transportation set from London to Paris.. I was wondering what would be the best way between the other cities?? Could someone give their opinion on each transfer? Train, Plane, etc.. I get restless on journey%26#39;s beyond 8 hrs, but open to suggestions.. If you suggest trains, or planes, can you specify which company to go with?

Thanks!

Each of the countries you will be visiting (except UK) has one national train operator, so you don%26#39;t get a choice of companies. You do best to book direct with the operators. Do not use RailEurope, which charges a substantial fee on top of the ticket price.

Rather than my going into detail here, I suggest you consult www.seat61.com which has comprehensive independent advice on rail travel in Europe.

Thalys has numerous trains daily from Paris to Amsterdam, approximately 4 hours 15 minutes. Both train stations are convenient to center of cities. Booked early on Thalys site for 32 euro for Comfort 2.

As mentioned the Thalys runs direct from Paris to Amsterdam. You can then get a train from Amsterdam directly east to Berlin. Check out this Dutch website for international tickets : www.nshispeed.nl/en
