Hi This is a related question. Can someone please tell me whether it is possible to make reservations for another country's trains from Munich's main rail station. My family of 4 have a rail pass and will be travelling for 6 weeks in Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France and Belgium. I am not worried about getting seats on the German trains but as we will be in Italy and France in July I would like to reserve some of our longer trips eg Berchtesgaden to Venice, Rome to Lausanne, Lausanne to Colmar and Colmar to Brussels. We will be travelling on day trains only. I know which trains (times etc ) that we want to take. Thank you Rosemary

You can make international reservations at any train station, at least with what I have seen and done myself. The euraide office in Munich will for sure be of help.

The Munich Euraide office has a German Rail terminal, just like any counter in the Reisezentrum around the corner, and, in my experience, the German Rail ticket counter workers speak excellent English. However, the Euraid office, although the hours are more limited, charges no more than the Reisezentrum. Your choice.

Rosemary,
I agree with the previous suggestions. Check with either the DB ticket agent or EurAide in the Munich Hbf. I've used EurAide in the past and found them enormously helpful!
Happy travels!

Thank you all. Knowing we can book our tickets in Munich is a great relief.
Cheers
