1,000+

See each step in action

From the first question to the platform on day fourteen — here's what Sam builds with you along the way.

Step 1 — Plan

A route that respects every reservation rule

Add cities and nights. Sam plots every leg, flags the trains that need reservations, and verifies each connection before you commit.

  • Stops you can reach

    Sam suggests destinations on your route and checks every stop is feasible.

  • Reservation flags

    Mandatory, optional, or pass-restricted — clearly marked on every leg.

  • Share or export

    Send the plan to travel companions or save it as a PDF.

Sam's review

Minimises travel time while including the scenic Arlberg Pass. Nightjet availability looks good for your dates.

Step 2 — Compare

Prove the pass actually saves money

Sam prices every leg against the relevant rail passes, factors in reservation supplements, and tells you which option is cheapest — for your dates, your route, your age.

  • Live fare data

    Real ticket prices for your travel dates, not averages from a forum post.

  • Supplements included

    The hidden costs that make a "cheap" pass expensive at the counter.

  • Discounts applied automatically

    Youth, senior, family — Sam checks every fare you qualify for.

    SNCF, ÖBB, Trenitalia, SBB and 30+ more — pay once.

  • Tickets straight to your inbox

    Mobile-ready PDFs, attached to the right leg of your trip.

FAQ

Common questions

How does the trip planner work?
You start by setting your origin and destination, then describe what you want to experience. Sam suggests stops that fit your route and interests. You can add, remove, or reorder destinations, and Sam shows you reservation requirements and costs for each leg.
What if I just have a quick question?
You don't have to plan a full trip. Visit our Ask page to get instant answers to any rail pass question—reservations, routes, pass rules, scenic trains, and more.
What if Sam gives me wrong information?
You can request a review from a human rail pass expert who can verify any advice and provide personalized support. We combine AI speed with human expertise via our concierge service.
Can Sam actually save me money?
Yes! Sam helps you understand when reservations are mandatory vs optional, when to use your pass vs buy tickets, and which routes avoid expensive supplements. Many travelers save more than the cost of credits on a single trip.
How is Sam different from ChatGPT?
Rail travel is our specialty. Sam was trained specifically on European rail pass rules and tested with 1,000+ real scenarios. Generic AI often hallucinates rail details—Sam was built to get them right.
