Has anyone traveled the overnight train from Prague to Budapest and Budapest to Krakow? What should I expect? How much for a two person sleeper on these routes?
I took the night train from Prague-Krakow, and Krakow to Budapest and slept in a 2nd class 3 person sleeper. It was great. Never felt that my safety was in jeopardy. Had a rail pass so can't really comment on the price. There were lots of empty beds in mid May...
The train's aren't too bad. Don't expect anything luxurious, but they're standard and fine for getting from one place to the other. I've done the Prague-Budapest route a few times and haven't found it to be problematic at all.
