What to write about

In this part of the article, we’ll tell you what content is useful and interesting for readers and convert them into Rail Europe customers.

Service review

The best way is to try the service and describe your experience. First person narrative and real photos taken on the trip always impress more than dryly reciting the service description and add a few screenshots. If you don’t have an opportunity to travel now, try to collect reviews from people who actually used the services of the company.

Route description

Choose a few of the most popular itineraries and describe them in detail:

  • What trains follow this route and how they are different from others?
  • What train and class of service would suit a young couple or a family with children?
  • Which stations do the trains stop at on the way, and what beautiful places can you see in the meantime?
  • Should print out the ticket or just show it on your phone?
  • Where should you eat on the way? How you can buy a ticket including meals on the train? Do you need to book a seat?

Description of trains and seat classes

It is always interesting to know the conditions of your traveling:

  • What different seat classes look like
  • What you can see through the panoramic windows on the train
  • What meals on the train consist of

You can write articles or make videos for your YouTube channel or social media.

Ticket or rail pass

Describe the difference between a ticket and a rail pass and help your readers understand when each one of them is beneficial. Rail Europe has a special material on that.

Calculate the trip cost

Choose popular destinations and calculate the trip cost for different transportations. You can also come up with a few itineraries for beginners. Suggest what cities to visit, what to see in each of them, what tours to take and how to buy tickets for transport. Indicate how much time it will take and how much it will cost. For example, “See Germany in five days.”
