    Hello all

    I hope someone can advise me on this.

    I am going to spend about three weeks travelling around France and Spain. Nothing major, but I will be travelling by train -

    Dublin to Rosslare
    [ Boat to Cherburg ]
    Cherburg to Paris
    Paris to Barcelona
    Barcelona to Bilbao
    Bilbao to Barcelona
    Barcelona to Paris
    Paris to Cherburg
    [ Boat to Rosslare ]
    Rosslare to Dublin

    So, there's a bit of train travel!

    I am not a student, and I am 31.

    Is there a travel card or anything like that I can buy which would save me money?

    Thanks!

    Steve

    I'd hope so cause Im guessing all that train travel in France & Spain could cost you around the €500+ mark. Unless its all about the train you might be better at least flying the Paris to Barca leg.
    I'm not sure about discount passes but you could check www.sncf.com , they have an english site in there somewhere.
    Also www.seat61.com might throw up some info as well.
