    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.
