Rail journeys that make a difference

16 November 2023, Utrecht, The Netherlands. For every Interrail Pass* purchased in November, Eurail will donate €10 to The Intrepid Foundation.

Travelling has the potential to change hearts and minds, shape perspectives and create long-lasting impressions. Eurail believes that the benefits of travel should go both ways, positively impacting both the traveller and their destinations. 

As an alternative to Black Friday, Eurail’s Save and Donate campaign aims to encourage travellers to slow down, savour their journeys and build meaningful connections with people, places, and communities.

The donations will directly support European partners of The Intrepid Foundation, Intrepid Travel’s not-for-profit entity. The foundation empowers travellers to make a positive contribution to the places they visit, experiencing the joy of travel, community, and connection along the way. 

Some of the organisations receiving the funds are Humana Zagreb, a cooperative that promotes sustainable fashion based in Croatia, Cooperativa Coraggio, an Italian organisation that fosters knowledge development for sustainable agricultural practices, and Portugal-based REFOOD, which helps feed those in need by distributing rescued food from local restaurants and supermarkets.

Through this initiative, Eurail affirms its commitment to fostering connections between travellers and European communities, contributing back to the continent that provides our travellers with experiences of a lifetime. By working together, our journeys can make a difference.  

* The 25% off promotion will run from November 16^th until November 28^th and is applicable on select Interrail Passes. The last possible activation day of the Passes purchased during the promotion is 1 June 2024. Visit this page to learn more.

About Intrepid Travel and The Intrepid Foundation: 

Intrepid Travel is a global adventure travel company, dedicated to providing sustainable, experience-rich travel opportunities. In 2002, they established The Intrepid Foundation so their travellers could make a lasting impact on the communities they had visited. Although Intrepid Travel absorbs all administrative costs of The Intrepid Foundation, they are separate legal entities, allowing The Intrepid Foundation to grow independently and continue encouraging travellers to make a real impact in the communities they visit.
