Europe Travel

Bus Travel in Europe Web TransitionsAbroad.com Home Work Study Travel Living As seen in Transitions Abroad Magazine September/October 2000 Related Topics Budget Travel Back Door Travel with Rick Steves Related Articles Bus Tours Can be Great Bargains Cheap Travel in Europe European Travel by Bus By Koke Miller-Thomas (Web editor's note: Updated to link to sites for current rates and information.) After working six months in Scotland and England, I realized that my initial financial forecast was too optimistic. I didnt want to leave without touring Europe, but I could not afford to travel by train. So I looked around for alternatives and found two bus passes that I could afford: Eurolines Europass and the Busabout pass . Eurolines Europass is less expensive than Busabout (and offers fewer perks), but both passes cost less than comparable rail passes. For example, here are the current rates for the Europass. The current rates for the Busabout pass are listed here . The main advantage of Busabout versus Europass and Eurail is additional convenience. Busabout will drop you off at hostels and help you book rooms in advance. Eurolines provides an external link for booking accommodations online via their site. Both bus passes let you travel to a few countries that a Eurail pass does not include. For example, with Europass you can visit the following countries . Busabout, does not offer quite as many country destinations, but it lets you visit more smaller destinations, as well as packages to Morocco, Croatia and the Greek Islands. Ultimately, comfort is the main factor to consider when deciding whether to travel more expensively by train or more cheaply by bus. Buses are often crowded and are about as comfortable as they are in the U.S. On the upside, European bus stations are far nicer than in the U.S., and buses are used by more people. Compared with the train travel Ive done in Europe, bus passengers seem to socialize more than rail travelers. Perhaps more importantly, most bus passengers are locals. All of our drivers were locals, and they generally provided interesting bits of information. You can buy a Busabout pass online. Their web site, www.busabout.com , also contains maps and stop information. The Eurolines pass can be bought online as well and a network map is available. An audio interview is available at www.eurolines.com - just click for the Podcast. KOKE MILLER-THOMAS has lived in several countries. Currently she is a social worker for the state of Texas.

FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Things to Do to Avoid Being a Crime Victim A cruise ship is one of the safest places you can take a vacation. However, in today's world, that is not saying much! No one sets out to become a crime victim, but it can happen to anyone. There are steps you can take to lower your risk of being a crime statistic when you travel. Before You Leave Home Make copies of your passport, driver's license, credit cards, wallet contents, and travel documents (plane tickets, etc). You also should make a copy of the credit card "lost or stolen" notification phone numbers to include with this package. Leave one set of copies at home with a trusted friend or family member, and take the other set with you, packed separately from the originals. Many cruise ships will hold your passport to expedite clearing the ship in foreign ports. Therefore, I always make a couple of extra copies of my passport to use to take ashore. Buy an under-the-clothing money bag and use it. These can be quite comfortable, and will thwart "cut and run" thieves who have been known to cut purse straps or waist packs right off their victims. Packing Your Luggage Don't rush out and buy expensive luggage. Plain-looking luggage is less likely to be a target. Some thieves might equate expensive luggage with expensive contents. Make a list of everything you have put in your luggage, and take pictures of it while packing in case of loss. Don't pack medications, eyeglasses, and valuables in your checked luggage. (Better yet, don't take valuables like expensive jewelry with you on the cruise.) Although you need to put external (and internal) tags on your luggage, don't list your full home address on the outside. This is a signal to expert thieves that you won't be home for a week! You really don't want to advertise to everyone at the airport where you live. Although you don't want expensive luggage, you do want luggage that will not pop open at an inopportune time. I've seen all sorts of baggage contents (including some "unmentionables") come out on the luggage carousels at the airport, and always felt sorry for the owners whose bags had come open. Consider using an extra band, airport plastic wrap, or duct tape to help secure your bags. You can buy self-locking plastic tags from travel or home improvement stores for about a dollar. These work well on zippered bags. In Your Cabin When you first get to your cabin, check the bathroom and closet while the cabin door is still open. While a ship is in port, many more people have access to it than you might imagine. Being cautious never hurt anyone. In addition, sometimes the locks on cruise ship cabins are not changed as often as hotel locks. Don't leave valuables lying around in your cabin. Put your wallet and valuables in the cabin's safe or the purser's safe. Be sure to use ALL the locks on the door when you are asleep. Don't open the door to strangers. Protect your cabin key and cabin number. On the Ship Although cruise ships are relatively safe, common sense is needed even at sea. Stay in the public areas, and remember that a cruise ship and its crew and passengers are like a small city, not like your family. If you are cruising with your children, set rules just like at home. Establish curfews for your teenagers, and caution them to not accompany crew members to non-public areas. Don't give your children "the run of the ship" while you are in the club, show, or casino. While In Port If you are going to be a crime victim while on a cruise, it is most likely to occur when you are ashore. Most crimes committed against cruise passengers are those of opportunity. I wear an under-the-clothing bag for my money and credit cards. While in Europe on a cruise vacation, there were at least three men on our cruise whose pockets were picked. Two men had their wallets in their back pocket--the worst place to carry it! One of these men was in the elevator of our pre-cruise Barcelona hotel, and another was waiting to cross the street at a busy intersection. The third man was on a crowded subway in Rome, and had his wallet in his front pants pocket. All three of these crimes could have been avoided. I once had my purse stolen while on business in Washington, D. C. I left it on the back of my chair while dining. I now know to hold it in my lap. I was very glad that I had recorded all of my credit card numbers (and notification phone numbers) in a place other than my purse. I was able to quickly notify the credit card companies and my bank, even though the theft occurred at night. You can't put your camera inside your clothing and have it ready to snap that special picture. Don't put it in a backpack, unless you wear it in front! I have a small camera bag that I can attach to a belt. If you want to carry it in a waist pack, put the strap through your belt loops. These tips are all common sense. Use them to make your next cruise vacation a safe one!
