Versatile – 2 Day, 3 Day, 4 Day, 8 Day (legitimate inside 1 month) and 15 Day (legitimate inside 2 months)
Consecutive – 2 Day, 3 Day, 4 Day, 8 Day, 15 Day, 22 Day, 1 Month
The opposite various is a World Eurail Go. It affords consecutive journey for 15 or 22 consecutive days, or purchase a cross legitimate for 1, 2 or 3 months. Or a versatile cross for 4, 5 or 7 non-consecutive days unfold over a month; or for 10 or 15 days throughout a two month interval.
With 6 days of prepare journey (excluding the Jacobite which isn’t coated by both cross) a 7 day World Eurail flexipass could be the most cost-effective for this itinerary.
