An excellent source for train info is

http://www.seat61.com/

Why don't you post a specific request for assistance with train info, including the cities, routes, etc?

This request asked for input on your itinerary - I think you got what you asked for . . . .

"Please let us know is this itinery doable or its to hectic?? Planning to use train as our main transportation... Any suggesstion are highly appreciated as we r totally blind in this!! We need some serious insights n advices!! Thanks in advance"

Specify trains and you'll get train info - but keep in mind you'll probably get another dose of caution about your plans, which is likely getting very frustrating for you.

I think travelers have been hesitant to provide specific advice, thereby approving or agreeing with your plan, when they have serious reservations about it.

Having said that, we usually rent cars on our travels, so I am unable to offer any advice on preferred routes or other concerns.

And, whatever you decide, I hope your trip is everything you want it to be.

Maybe you could leave some parts of the trip unplanned? I mean not make reservations or paid in advance for some of the cities. So once you get started, and you find out how nearly impossible your plan is, you could modify it and cut out some of the destinations... even after you're already in Europe and started with this trip.

I'm sorry but the number of countries, cities, stops you have and the number of days just doesn't match up in reality.

You wrote: "Please let us know is this itinery doable or its to hectic?? Planning to use train as our main transportation... Any suggesstion are highly appreciated as we r totally blind in this!! We need some serious insights n advices!!" So your inquiry was NOT about trains in the first place, but about your itinerary. I wonder why you're making so many people investing their valuable time in order to give valuable advice, if in the end, you and your friends are simply ignoring what everybody said, and go on as if nobody had said anything.

portiaperu : yea i know everyone is against me, thats why i asked if theres anyone in this forum really want to help me out with the train planning, please do email me in private. wont post any itinery here again as that will get me "another dose of caution about your plans" ahahah

ellenem : yes i ve read that website throughly, i just need someone (who really knows about euroupe train) to talk/chat/discuss about my itinery.., is it better to take trains, or rent a car, or plane, etc etc

suze : we cant leave some parts unplanned.. we decided to go with this itinery so we have to plan it n do it. but thanks for the thoughts..

<<ive read seat61 and the all the trainschedules website and all websites about europe and based on that i made a detailed itinery on what to do each day on hourly basis (the one i posted here is only the big picture, what day where to go)>>

<<I was kinda hoping if this forum could help me with more info about train connections/booking from 1 city to another rather than "hushing" my itinery.. But its ok i can understand why everyone did so hehe.>>

<<Really need help with the train planning, if theres anyone in this forum would like to help me please email me [email protected] i would be really glad>>

Sorry to be so blunt, but you do not make sense.

franco & everyone : soryy if my post has wasted ur valuable time, i truly am T_T sory.. dont think that we dint take into consideration of these posts, we did, we take out viena, prague, lucerne, milan, so we can have at least 2 nights in each cities.

I don't have any train advise but I do think if you are overwhlemed with planning such a detailed trip that you might want to consider a tour instead. There are many companies that specialize in all-over Europe trips that will give you a taste for several countries. They take care of the transportation, hotels, etc and you can enjoy your honeymoon. I am sure others on here can recommend tour companies but here is one from Rick Steves (just an option): http://tours.ricksteves.com/tours10/...code/EUR10/212

Good luck.

Or perhaps this entire post is a scam and we are all wasting our time.

Meihan83, Part of the fun of traveling is planning. You can plan train journeys easily enough by googling.
If planning this trip makes you feel overwhelmed, imagine taking it.

I agree with trvlgirlmq, there is no shame in taking a tour. Tours are perfect for some and not perfect for others.

You have this idea of what a great story, "getting lost in Europe" would be, but in reality, it seems your not fond of map work.

How are you going to deal with language issues when you are lost?

I'm concerned that if you want others to do your planning, then this may not be the trip for you.

There are plenty of traveling stories some are fun and others are not. IMHO, after listening to and reading trip reports, personal preparation makes a great trip.

I may as well add that another thing that makes a really good written trip report is really good writing that is spelled correctly and well edited.

Meihan83,

Can you post your revised itinerary in the same form as you posted your original one in your first post? We can offer better transportation advice about your revised itinerary if we can see the revised plan listed clearly that way.

I think it has the hint of troll.

Could be a scam. But here's my final advice to meihan83 -- or anyone blessed with youth, money and enthusiasm, looking for adventure by undertaking an itinerary like this::

Don't book hotel reservations you can't cancel without penalty on 24 hours notice.

Carry at least one cell phone so you can cancel your hotel and other reservations as needed.

Do not travel without trip insurance for everyone in your party.

ok posting a new topic..

Why would anyone think that Meihan83 is a troll? Other than just young and crazy and a little lazy.

Meihan83, assuming that you are from the USA, if someone from Europe were to come to you and say that they had 50 days in the USA and they wanted to visit all 48 mainland states would you recommend it or would you try hard to talk them out of it knowing that it is possible but they would miss out on all the great things and sights the country has to offer? They would spend the majority of their time traveling and not seeing anything. That is basically the kind of trip you are taking.

You're going to be able to brag that you've been to all of these cities and countries on your list but you won't remember anything about them or what makes them unique and different from the others at a deeper level. But, if that is what is important to you I hope it meets your dreams. Good luck!

<suze : we cant leave some parts unplanned.. we decided to go with this itinery so we have to plan it n do it.>

WHY? Why in the world to you "have to". That statement makes absolutely no sense.

No one is "against you". You asked for our help. We have given it. You choose to ignore it.

That's one possibility.

Other than just young and crazy and a little lazy.
That's another (maybe a little more likely) possibility.

She mentioned they are from Indonesia. So I'm guessing English perhaps not her first language? I don't think she's a "troll". I think it's for real, but for whatever reason they don't really want to accept the advice being offered.
