We just did Paris-Vienna in the NightJet and I definitely recommend it! My spouse and I had the private room with the shower, and it was about 400 euros, but definitely worth it (and cheaper than 2 plane tickets and a hotel in Paris or Vienna).

8:10 I don't know when this video was filmed, but the name Thalys does not exist anymore. The trains are now marketed under the Eurostar brand.

I'm loving long-distance train journeys these days - more chilled than planes, go from city centre to city centre, and much better views. I'm waiting for OBB to roll out their single-person capsule beds on more routes - just a seat is a no-go and I don't really want to share. Btw, Thalys rebranded as Eurostar last year following their merger, while they've recently changed their classes to Standard, Plus and Premier. While I'm being a pedant, you may want to double-check the spelling of Executive at 04:50.

Great fun video! I've travelled long distance on trains in UK, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Slovenia, Italy, Russia, Ukraine, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, as well as China and Mongolia. My longest train trip was in 2020 (just before Covid) from London - Paris - Brussels - Cologne - Hamburg - Copenhagen - Stockholm - (Ferry) - Helsinki - St Petersburg - Moscow - Yekaterinburg - Ulan-Ude - Vladivostok. Money and health permitting I hope to do it again!!

It's now the Eurostar high speed train between Paris and Amsterdam, Paul. The Thalys name was dropped a while ago. As for the Amsterdam to Berlin service, it's IC and not ICE. The rolling stock is sub par for a route linking two capitals.

Exploring Europe by train is undoubtedly the most enjoyable way to experience this incredible continent 🍒🍒🍒

Thanks for the vid! :) only thing I'd mention is the Ireland rail map at 7:34 is most definitely wrong (some of those lines closed in the 1930s and the rest in the 60s generally) so the other European countries may not also be accurate!

The Paris/Milan Frecciarossa has been suspended on August 2023 because of a landslide, and is expected to restart Summer 2024, but tickets arent for sale yet. I loved all your suggestions and will certainly advise my clients about them. Great video

Switzerland is definitely a place where the train ride is about the journey not the destination

I took the night jet from Amsterdam to Zurich. I was scheduled to take the QBB night train from Zurich to Vienna but they cancelled my trip a day beyond was to travel. This moves took me with a trip one-way ticket from Vienna back to Zürich when I asked them to reimburse me for that ticket they said no I’m stuck with it.

I would avoid Switzerland...Ridiculously overpriced and not worth it
