High-Speed Trains

Take high-speed trains to travel through Europe in style and cover large distances quickly while enjoying a bite to eat in a dining car or in your comfortable seat.

 

Many European high-speed trains are included in the Eurail passes, but the reservations for these trains are not included in your Pass. Reservations for high-speed trains are often mandatory and need to be booked in advance. Your reservation will guarantee you a seat. You can book your seat for most high-speeds trains up to 3 months in advance.

Reservations for high-speed trains

Reservations are mandatory for some of Europe's high-speed trains. Depending on the train, you can make these reservations online, by phone or through our reservation service. A reservation guarantees you a seat on the train, which is particularly useful if you are traveling with a group and want to sit together.
