With the low-cost airline boom in Europe, it’s pretty easy to hop on a plane and explore a new part of the continent. But that doesn’t mean train travel is a thing of the past - not by a long shot. Europe’s rail network is still a fabulous way to get around. Here are just […]
As someone who has been stuck at the Athens airport during a strike just like today’s, I understand how frustrating it can be. No flights, trains, ferries, subways, buses… and a queue for a taxi that extends farther than you can see. Here are a few tips I’d have for someone in the same situation:

This low fare was available for the fastest trains (with seat reservations), and I didn’t […]
