Deutsche Bahn tickets can be booked directly with OmioIn just under 30 years, Deutsche Bahn, or DB for short, has become one of the most reliable train companies in Europe. Their tracks stretch the width and breadth of Germany and with their high-speed ICE trains connecting major cities—as well as international ones such as Amsterdam and Strasbourg—travelling Germany by train is easy with Deutsche Bahn.
Train travel in another country can be daunting, especially if you don’t know what to expect from the train company. To make things clearer, we've compared Deutsche Bahn to the United Kingdom's Cross Country to help you get up to speed.
Like Cross Country, Deutsche Bahn tickets are cheaper the earlier you buy them. Both DB and Cross Country offer a generous baggage policy free of charge. Cross Country offers seat reservation for free whereas DB charges a small fee for 2nd class seats, DB trains have similar facilities to Cross Country including Wi-Fi, on-board catering, charging sockets and toilets.
