Hi again...I know this topic has been discussed to death, but I would appreciate input anyway. My family (two adults, two kids 8 and 10) will be in Germany for two weeks. I know that rail passes aren't always the best deal, but we will be doing quite a bit of city-to-city travel:
Airport to Munich
Munich to Salzburg
Salzburg to Berchtesgaden and back (via bus)
Salzburg to Erfurt
Erfurt to Eisenach and back
Erfurt to Wittenberg
Wittenberg to Berlin
Berlin to airport
I don't want to buy tickets too far in advance because we want some flexibility - for example, we have several days in Salzburg and will choose the day with the best weather to go to Berchtesgaden. Do you think we would be better off with a rail pass or buying point-to-point tickets as we go? I like the flexibility that comes with a rail pass, but not if it costs significantly extra.
