How to plan Southern Europe: which town, which month, which train or ferry
Decisions between two places, train and ferry legs, day-by-day routes and where to base yourself – country by country.

Who writes South EU Summit
Clara Thornbury is the pen name South EU Summit’s small editorial team writes under. Guides are built from operators’ timetables, official tourism and transport pages, and the credited photographers’ pictures. When Clara recommends a town, a train or a month, that is a judgement from the research, not a memory of a trip. Seen a timetable or fare that has changed? Write to editors@southeusummit.com.
