    I was looking trying to look at the cost of travelling not on an interrail card from Amsterdam - Berlin and then Berlin - Prague and it's very hard to find any direct routes and even to find a price. Has anyone any experience of this or would I just be better of getting an interrail pass, can't get a 2 zone one thats the problem so it would have to be a global one which is €375, if that trains are cheaper singly I'd go that way.
    Oh and can anyone recomend a hostel in prague??

    www.bahn.de can be very good for rail journeys and have details and timetables on both journeys (just checked there). You can book online. Seems to be about e110 return from Amsterdam to Berlin and e55 return from Berlin to Prague.

    I dont think prices really change that much, well nowhere near as much as they do over here.

    Your best bet may be getting them at Amsterdam Central station. The NS International office upstairs on the platform level does all the International tickets. They may be able to offer you a discount or something. I booked tickets from Amsterda to Vienna via Heidelberg and Munich and it cost €220.

    Thats incl. seat reservations on ICE trains from Amsterdam to Frankfurt, Stuttguard to Munich and again from Munich to Vienna. The seat reservations i would advise for the long journeys but they do add about €45 onto the price.

    Id also say check out www.bahn.de and also NS rail at www.ns.nl
