EuroPass... Is it worth it?
I was speaking with a friend today who has visit Europe a few times and he told me that unless you're going for a 3-6 month visit, getting a Europass isn't really worth it. He says that it's cheaper to just buy individual tickets for trains from country to country.
Some things I see that need to be considered are:
1. There are many "bonuses" according to the website including things like free ferry use and the like.
2. The convenience of having one pass that takes care of travel completely.
Personally, I would like to spend as little time as possible travelling from destination to destination. I would rather pick just a few places (5-6 in 3 weeks) and stick with those.
Any input?
Note: as of now, the cost of a youth pass for 21 days (my likely length of stay) is $539.
