Hello everyone! In February, I took a train trip from Dortmund to Paris. I travelled with the DB. At first I thought the price was very good. I know that 259 € is expensive. But you very cheap compared to plane tickets. The service on board was very friendly and always took my questions with great interest and always helped me. The food was also very delicious and fresh. However, the volume was not really appropriate and it was very noisy. In addition, although there was a wifi connection, it was quite poor. There were also several transfers, which I personally didn't like. Overall, however, a good trip.
