I went on my first Interrail trip last year. It was a single country trip though. Can absolutely recommend it!

Is it Interrail if it's just in one country? Isn't that just a normal rail pass then? :P

Not all countries have a rail pass and not all countries offer a 100% discount pass. And even less offer a 100% discount on all trains and for non residents

Any estimate on how much would the trip have cost? Just Interrail price

Right, but then "Inter" = "Borrowed from Latin inter- (“between, amid”), a form of prepositional inter (“between”)".

Seems more like parent did Intrarail to me.

The passes were about €500 each for first class. Each reservation was €3-€15. The overnight ferry was about €100 each.

The best part of interailling for me was turning up to a major train station, looking at the giant departure board, choosing an enigmatic destination and just getting on the train. No booking or reservations or even planning at any point.

Is this not possible any more?
