The Consecutive rail Pass provides unlimited rail travel on any day or all days for the duration of the pass. | |

|
A 21 days consecutive rail pass for example allows you to board any train you wish at anytime you wish in a day. Consecuctive day passes must be completed in the amount of days you purchased the pass for. Your pass begins on your first rail day. So if you have a 21 day rail pass. All your rail travel must be completed in a 21 day period starting from your first rail day. But perhaps you may want to take a few days in Amsterdam to smell the Tulips.

If you choose the Eurail Flexipass, 10 days within a 2 month period, you can pick and choose the 10 days wish to travel. You may use them consecutively or non consecutively if you wish as long as your 10 rail days are completed with a 2 month period. Try to decide on how many cities you want to visit, compared to the amount of time you're in the Europe. From there it makes it much easier to decide. | |

| For example: | |
| |
| If you are visiting France and Spain for a month and visiting four cities, The four days in two months Eurail Flexipass would be ideal for you. This will allow you to stay an extended period of time in the cities of your choice. No need to worry about losing valuable rail days.
The 22 days Eurail pass might be a good idea as well. However, all your travel must be completed in a 22 day period starting from your first day of travel. You may want more flexibility. | |

A Eurail consecutive day pass provides unlimited rail travel on any day or all days for the duration of the rail pass. For example.
