Design your very own trip. Choose your route around our European hop-on hop-off network and stop where you want. Our Flexitrip is the ultimate flexible Europe travel option, you can choose anywhere you'd like to go and then buy the number of corresponding flexistops. This is ideal if you really want a true trans-continental flexible tour of Europe or have a clear idea of what cities you want to experience - perfect for backpackers and budget independent travellers.
How it works
A Busabout Flexitrip Pass (6 or more flexistops) will give you access to the entire Busabout coach network. A flexistop is any time you jump off the coach overnight - compulsory overnight stops are indicated with red dots on the map below.
Flexitrip Passes of Europe are perfect for travellers and backpackers who are looking to go from point A to point B without wanting to get the whole "Loop". Your Flexistops are valid for the entire operating season giving you maximum flexibility (thus the clever name). Break away from the network and explore destinations like Greece or Morocco. Start and finish anywhere - just keep travelling until you run out of stops, or buy more as you go.
For example : Start in Paris and stop at Bruges, Amsterdam, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Munich, Venice and finish in Rome - all with only 8 'flexistops'. Stay in each city as long as you like. If you'd like to make an extra 'stop' in say Salzburg, simply buy an extra 'flexistop' from your On-board Guide.
The Flexitrip Pass is valid for the entire 2009 operating season (May to October). Each "sector" may be travelled once and departures from each city are every other day.
> Start and finish anywhere on our Europe map.
> Travel at your own pace.
> No 'time-limit'
> Minimum recommended travel time: 18 days
> Break your journey - make it into more than one trip.
> Door to door.
> Every other day service.
> Travel Dates and Accommodation - no booking fees!
We recommend that you utilise the "MyBusabout" feature on the website, so you can make confirmed seat reservations and pre-book you budget accommodation. Once you have booked your Busabout pass you can just log-on to the website with your booking reference number and start planning and booking your flexible tour of Europe.
