Hi Folks

I live in ZH and have to plan my Easter holidays and the places I would like to visit are either Berlin, Amsterdam or Prague. The points I would like to consider are..

1. Due to some reason I can't fly, Would prefer to travel by trains or only if bus travel is comfortable.
2. Traveling by night train or day train reaching destination before midnight.
3. Destination weather conditions in first week of April.
4. Main attractions in the city can be seen in 4 days time.

Thanks for your suggestions..

4 days in not enough! You will need to book flights quick.

Take the German Railways train: From Basel or Konstanz to Stockholm ( or Malmo or Copenhagen ) EUR30 one way if booked ahead ( 92 days in advance ).

From June: http://www.simpleexpress.eu/lang/node/51702

If you are lucky, you can get a very comfortable bus ride, from Berlin ZOB Funkturm to Vilnius coach Station ( or get off in Poznan / Warsaw, PL ) for only PLN12 one way. Free wifi on board and very comfortable seats.

Not much use when the OP is looking to go away over Easter

Easter is in early April, one can still get the German Pass, bus tickets ( DE touring and Polskibus ), flights etc.

i am also trying to come up with a good plan/destination so can't offer any sound advice. best of luck!
