Train

Belgium has the densest rail network in the world.  Trains run regularly between 06.00 a.m. and 08.00 p.m., later in the evening only a selection of trains runs until about 11.00 p.m.  Trains run less frequently during weekends. 

There are first and second class coaches, and a standard return (round-trip) fare is double the price of a single (one way) fare.  Keep in mind that the ticket is only valid for one day.  A timetable in English containing schedules and prices can be bought in the railway stations and on the website, in French, English and even German. 

• Go-Pass: 10 one-way trips for € 39 (you must be under 26, takes you to any station in Belgium for a set price)

• Multi-Pass: up to five people of any age, to any railway station in Belgium and back for a set price
  • € 35 for a maximum of 3 people
  • € 40 for a maximum of 4 people
  • € 44 for a maximum of 5 people 

Furthermore, there are a number of other possibilities to travel cheap by train which you can find on the website of the NMBS (www.b-rail.be) or at the railway stations.
