Tips to Buy Train Tickets
Plan ahead and enjoy a smooth rail journey across the Balkans with these essential tips for booking your train tickets.
  • Book in Advance
    Some routes, especially international or summer season lines, can sell out quickly. Booking early ensures you get the seat and class you prefer.
  • Use Trusted Booking Platforms
    Use platforms like Rail Ninja or High-Speed Train website to quickly compare routes, check schedules, and secure your seats in just a few clicks.
  • Choose the Right Class
    Many Balkan trains offer multiple classes, including Economy, First Class, and Sleeper compartments. Pick the one that fits your comfort needs and travel length.
  • Arrive Early
    Get to the station at least 20–30 minutes before departure to allow enough time for check-in or locating your platform.
  • Check Stations & Departures
    Major cities often have more than one station. Double-check both the departure and arrival stations before booking.
  • Travel Light if Possible
    Not all trains have large luggage compartments. Keeping baggage minimal makes for easier boarding and more comfortable seating.
  • Bring Your ID
    You may be asked to present a valid ID (passport or national ID) when boarding or for sleeper cabin access, especially on international routes.
  • Print or Save Your Ticket
    Some stations or trains may not accept mobile QR codes, so it’s smart to carry both a digital and printed copy of your ticket.
