how far is belgrade from greece? i am meeting my friends there (they're doing a "girls trip" around italy and parts of greece before i arrive...as students and Europeans, they can afford four weeks off while i can only afford 2-3) and i'm thinking about taking an extra few days and hitting up some other European hotspots before we meet.

how much is a plane there? i'm thinking of flying into a non-greek city, checking it out, and then taking a train of some sort to greece?

trains take forever....better off going by bus.
plane in the middle of summer to anywhere in Europe is expensive as fuck.
I'm guessing between $800 and $900.

versus maybe 60 bucks for a slow train you think?

it'll be more than a few hours....
my cousins just left for a 30 hour bus ride to Turkey....
I'd spend 3 times the money to avoid something like that.

is there a train with compartments where i could sleep and a salon car where i could socialize with mysterious international personalities and maybe come together to co-murder a fellow passenger?
or is it basically a rickety iron box with wooden benches filled with wrinkled old Slavs with chickens in cages in their laps?

no..for those trips there's really nice trains usually.
if you're really up for it when the time comes I can check everything out...
every agency has trips to greece, it's the most popular vacation spot from here.

what other major cities are near Belgrade? Budapest? Kiev? I dunno Eastern Europe geography very well.
i would really be into flying into Istanbul and then going to Greece, but i think you generally get mad hassled by authorities if you try to blend Greek and Turkish trips.

the farthest east I ever got was prague. we were on a tour and my brother and I ran downstairs in our hotel, and saw the tables set up, so we sat down and started eating...the waiter almost had a heart attack because we were eating food meant for a RUSSIAN tour group.
