Ah, just how delightful it is to see the glorious tradition of clickbaiting being passed on to the younger generations of youtubers! Truly inspiring, young sir, truly inspiring. Greetings from Ukraine, by the way)

Ukraine is very beautiful. I’m looking forward to visiting it in happier times

[@SuperalbsTravels]

Agreed, it's one of my favourites! 😍

[@Dand951]

Well you have to wait for the war end

[@srikanthshastry4546]

Let's hope the Ukrainians and Russians have it in their hearts to find true peace. More importantly let us hope America lets Ukrainians have peace.

[@oleglishchenko4922]

Thanks for your video, but the title is misleading: this is not a night train to Ukraine.

[@patrgl]

[@shootMEshootME1]

thank you so much for making this video I didn't know there was a train from Praha to all the way to Ukraine now I will make my trip a little bit better

[@Simon-Andersen]

Glad I could help!

[@BengtHansves]

I managed to go to Ukraine (Lviv, Kyiv, Chornobyl, Odesa) in 2019 via Przemysl from Swinoujscie and the ferry from Ystad, Sweden. All the way by train

[@Simon-Andersen]

That sounds like an exciting trip! Hope to do something similar in better times

The 13min early arrival at the final destination says it all

[@BritishRail60062]

I love these older station buildings. So pretty. I also enjoyed the train ride too. I hope you will cover the trains in Japan and China in the future.

[@Simon-Andersen]

I already have some videos from Japan! China I hope to visit in the future :D

The German designed Siemens Vectrons and Smatrons are efficiently moving people and tons of cargo all over Europe except in Germany. How ionic!

Hi, I am trying to book regiojet train from their app. And no option is coming to add name of passengers. However, names are required for my visa booking. Do you know how this can be resolved. Thank you.

[@Simon-Andersen]

Try the website instead, you can add passenger names there

[@tihi9049]

Hi . Can you tell me a bout the way from Poland to Lviv by the train .how long time waited in Ukraine Bording.thsnks

[@Simon-Andersen]

There is scheduled a little over one hour to change trains in Pzmysel, the trains will wait for each other if delayed

[@johnmehaffey9953]

Nice post

[@murielkerr-bell8007]

I only watched it because you said you were going to Ukraine, cheater.

[@idanko731]

I have traveled this train from Prague and from Krakow and it is incredibly uncomfortable. This is a very old train and typically some of the washrooms can be broken and the sleeping arrangements can be uncomfortable and dirty. If you are booking the leg into Ukraine through RegioJet be aware they may not book that for what ever reason and you can be forced to find other arrangements. This company is not a 1st class company. My current experience ( in the last day) is they forgot to book my leg from Lviv to Przemysl and now I must find a way to Przemysl to catch the train to Prague. Just be aware when you use RegioJet you are taking chances.

[@guffych1103]

Билет на 124 евро это на какое расстояние он едет, просто недавно ездил из г. Королев в Москву, это около 50км, билет стоил 90 рублей, это около 1 евро. Тоже обычная электричка пригородная, уровень примерно такой же, обычная пригородная электричка старого образца, самая дешевая по классу. Просто для России 124 евро за билет это можно очень далеко уехать.

[@coyuiod]

написано же, из Праги в Киев

[@guffych1103]

@@coyuiod Да мне просто интересно было сравнить порядок цен, я понимаю что в России цены ниже но интересно было именно разницы увидеть. Щас посмотрел цены на билеты от Москвы до Перми, (расстояние почти одинаковое) цена билета 5698р. Или 19803 рублей на самолете. Курс евро на момент написания, 103.48 рублей, выходит поездка на поезде 12831 рублей, значительная разница как не крути, но хотябы дешевле самолета. :)

Click Bait … So you never travel to Ukraine

Du har nok ret :p

[@Coole000]

Tsk... No Ukraine train quality content... It's not THAT bad actually, you can visit west of the country at least, Lviv is a beautiful place on itself

[@user-gt4yc9qb1f]

[@24pavlo]

You should make some kiełbasa, because you butchered those Polish toponyms hard.

[@tristanmaclennan2989]

I am surprised you are brave enough to even get on the train after you comments about it being dangerous to proceed to Lviv or Kyiv. I guess adventure in not on your schedule for your life on this planet.

[@Simon-Andersen]

Ill come back in better times, when my country (denmark) does not advice again'st all travel. I really do want to see Ukraine :-) - The most adventures travel you'll find on this channel is probably bribing my way out of tajikistan lol

[@lokyinszegwrraillover158]

But Ukraine has war

[@nolibtard6023]

Are you out of your mind to travel into a war zone?

[@shotoonzzroadto1ksubs9]

hahahha

[@johnnygomez7063]

the area where the special military operation is about 2000 km ahead - YOU IDIOT!!!! Its 8 hours only to Kiev - and another few hours to the "hot areas"

[@BaboSorany]

The war zone is in east Ukraine, Zakarpatska Oblast no war

[@johnnygomez7063]

@@BaboSorany the "war zone" has been on territory of today Russian Federation - in two republics and two regions (oblast) - all 4 territorial entities joined Russian Federation upon FREE DEMOCRATIC elections - where far-far-far majority of people decided to join.

Well I didn't i got off in Poland :-)

train is full and overloaded => refugees go on vacation 🤔🤦‍♂😄😄

Ты видишь что то плохого в этом? Мы бежали от войны, не от бедности. Люди в Украине в больших городах будут богаче Поляков, Чехов, Болгар или Румын
