advanced booking in EU summer
 

Hi everyone! I'm going to EU this summer (June to July) for one and a half months.
My questions is, will I save money by advance booking the hostels that I'm going to stay? Because I'm scared all the hostels will be sold this summer.
And, also is it the same goes in train tickets, should I also buy the tickets in advanced?

Thank you.

For the train tickets partly it depends on which tickets you need. In general buying the high speed train tickets in advance is cheaper but the slower commuter trains aren't always. The other thing with Covid messing things up some schedules are slow to come out. Worse there is a more or less European wide schedule change over start of June. That limits how far in advance you can buy.

You might get better advice if you told us where and when? June isn't high season but there might be an event in one of your stops.

July can get busy in popular hostels. Have a look now at the availability in hostels that you'd like to stay in. As Traveler_Nick says, if there's a festival or other event it could get busy. Thinking about for example Tomorrowland in Antwerp July 15-31.

The EU is a big place. Unless you say where you are hoping to visit we can't really help.
