Are you planning a trip to Europe and want to plan your route as efficiently as possible? Choosing the right transport and buying tickets in time will help you save not only money but also time. Today, many services allow you to book the flight you need in just a few clicks, while providing security guarantees for online payments.

Many European countries have dynamic pricing: the closer the departure date, the more expensive the tickets. If you buy early, you may find favourable discounts and promotions. Therefore, we recommend buying tickets in advance.

Here are some of the most proven and convenient ways to buy tickets in Europe:

Online platforms. Services such as Visit Ukraine and similar booking systems allow you to compare prices from different carriers and choose the right date and time of travel.

Official websites of carriers. If you prefer a particular company, you can book a ticket directly on its website.

Mobile applications. Almost every major carrier has its own app, where it is convenient to buy tickets and store them electronically.

Offline ticket offices. This is a traditional method that is gradually fading into the background, but sometimes helps out if there is no way to buy a ticket online.

When booking tickets, it is important to protect yourself from fraudsters. Buy tickets only through trusted portals and websites of official carriers.

Bus or train: which is better for travelling in Europe?

The choice between bus and train depends on your personal preferences, budget and specific route.

Advantages of bus travel

🚌 More affordable prices. Bus tickets are often cheaper than train tickets, especially when it comes to budget carriers.

🚌 Wide network of routes. Buses can enter small towns and villages where trains do not go.

🚌 Flexibility in the schedule. Many bus carriers offer flights at different times of the day, which makes it possible to choose the most convenient option.

Advantages of trains

🚄 Comfort. Trains are usually equipped with spacious seats, there is an opportunity to move freely around the carriage, and in most European high-speed trains there is even a restaurant or cafe.

🚄 Speed. High-speed trains (TGV, Thalys, Eurostar, etc.) allow you to cover long distances in a short time.

🚄 Convenience over long distances. If you need to travel from one country to another overnight, trains have sleeping compartments or comfortable seats for night routes.

Some travellers combine train and bus to optimise costs and route. For example, you can get to a big city by high-speed train and then change to a bus to get to a more remote location. This approach allows you to save time on the main part of the journey and money on the secondary ones.

Where to buy bus tickets in Europe?

Where to buy train tickets in Europe?

European railway networks are famous for their sophistication: many trains run exactly on time, and the routes cover both large cities and small tourist destinations. At the same time, each country has its own railway company and/or several operators offering tickets for domestic and international flights.

Major railway companies in Europe

Deutsche Bahn (DB) - Germany and international routes. It is known for its ICE high-speed trains and convenient schedules.

SNCF (TGV, Thalys, Eurostar) - France and international high-speed routes, including connections to Belgium, the Netherlands and the UK.

Italo and Trenitalia are the main operators in Italy. They compete with each other on domestic lines, especially on high-speed routes.

Renfe - Spain. Domestic and high-speed connections in the country.

PKP Intercity, ÖBB, České dráhy - Poland, Austria, and the Czech Republic, respectively. Each of the operators also offers international connections.

Where can I find and book train tickets?

The process is similar to buying bus tickets:

1. Visit the official website of the railway company (DB, SNCF, Trenitalia, etc.) or an aggregator (Visit Ukraine booking system).

2. Enter the starting and ending stations, date and convenient flight.

3. Make the payment. The ticket will be sent to your email or personal account on the carrier's website.

How do I find the cheapest bus and train tickets?

As already mentioned, Europe has dynamic pricing, and the closer to the date of travel, the higher the price. You can also subscribe to carriers' newsletters to find out about special offers.

Sometimes a one-stop flight can be cheaper than a direct flight. Therefore, you can use alternative routes. If the train is more expensive, look for buses and vice versa.
