Loz JC Lauren & James Post Count: 2 Msg: #1 100 weeks ago, January 4th 2008 | I am planning to go to Turkey, the Greek Islands finishing in Athens, Croatia and Oktoberfest this summer and was wondering if anyone can help me with the logistics? | I was thinking of getting a flight to Istanbul, touring around, getting to Athens via ferry through a couple of the Greek Islands. But then the tricky part... How then, can I get from Athens to Split in Croatia, and from Split to Munich. I'm thinking trains but am open to other suggestions, and obviously I know I will have to go via other places and not direct. If anyone can help I would be very grateful! Cheers! P.S. While we're at it, is anyone a master of Turkey travel? Because I'd also like to know how to get from Istanbul to Kusadasi. :) Ali Ali Watters Post Count: 3902 Msg: #2 100 weeks ago, January 5th 2008 | You could go - lots of long trips though - overnighters - eastern european train travel is cheap though - book in advance to get a sleeper ticket. | Athens Thessalonkiki Sophia Belgrade Split I think!

Less headaches than busses and all that. | The ferries are also your best bet in Greece, use fast ferries when time doesn't matter, and regular ferries when you building flights into your schedule so you don't miss them. Athens, Croatia, ad Munich are all major airline hubs, save yourself the time and look into discount airfares. Here is a LINK to an About site with alot of information detailing European Airlines and cheap airfare. jdchiefboy jason m Post Count: 8 Msg: #5 76 weeks ago, June 21st 2008 | this site is amazing and will help you with all your train needs. www.seat61.com | Mell Mell Post Count: 14405 Msg: #6 76 weeks ago, June 22nd 2008 | Hello Lauren and James :) | I moved this to the Europe forum.
