With Alpha, you’ll have the right cover while you ride the rails and explore all that Europe has to offer.

Interrailing has become increasingly popular and is more than just a journey – it’s a fantastic, eco-friendly way to experience Europe’s cities, culture, and landscapes in one unforgettable trip. Picture this: from the beauty of Rome’s historic sites to the charm of Amsterdam’s canals, with countless cities to discover along the way. Why fly from place to place when interrailing offers a sustainable, budget-friendly way to see it all and soak up what Europe has to offer?

With Alpha, your interrailing cover comes as standard on all our policies, making it the perfect partner for your rail-bound travels. And with reputable companies like Interrail, it’s easy to book, with pre-planned routes or the freedom to create your own adventure, tailored to your travel plans and interests.

Our cover is simple and doesn't break the bank, so you can focus on the journey, not the paperwork.
