The Ultimate Bucket List

Self-guided 29-day rail trip from London through nine countries

The Ultimate Bucket List is a 29-day self-guided rail trip operated by Interrailing Packages (Eurailing Packages Ltd) that starts and ends at London St Pancras, crossing nine countries. You travel independently between destinations by train, at your own pace, with all rail transport included and one overnight ferry, from Split to Italy, replacing a train for that single leg. The route runs from Amsterdam and Berlin to Prague, then Krakow, where the highlights include a visit to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial, Budapest's thermal baths, Ljubljana, with a free return trip to Lake Bled, Split's Diocletian's Palace, Rome, Florence, Nice, and Paris before returning to London. Interrailing Packages provides a personalised trip-planning app and 24/7 emergency support, and accommodation ranges from a shared hostel dorm to a 3-4 star hotel. This package suits independent, budget-conscious travellers who want an extended, self-planned tour covering major capitals and historical sites, rather than a short escorted trip.

What to know before you look closer

Accommodation is tiered from a shared hostel dorm up to a 3-4 star hotel double or twin room, and the specific hotel is confirmed only after booking.
The Split to Italy leg is an overnight ferry rather than a train, the one break in an otherwise all-rail routing.
A solo hotel room costs GBP 4,465, about GBP 1,700 more than the GBP 2,765 per-person rate for two people sharing a hotel double or twin.
The evidence available lists no specific departure dates for this package; confirm current timing and pricing with Interrailing Packages directly.
