Overnight journey from Prague to Zurich starting at 44 EUR
There currently are a variety of options to travel by night train or night bus from Prague (Czech Republic) to Zurich (Switzerland), taking between approximately 10 and 15 hours: Namely the EC 458, the EN 40458, the BUS Praha - Milán, the BUS Praha - Lyon and the BUS Praha - Curych. These lines are operated by DB, ÖBB and Regiojet.
Deutsche Bahn (DB) exited the actual night train business in 2016. However, it operates around a dozen Intercity and Eurocity trains that run exclusively at night. These trains only have first and second class seats. The cars remain lit throughout the night and the seats cannot be reclined.
The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) operate the Nightjet and Euronight trains (the latter together with other national railway agencies). The ÖBB usually offer three types of carriages in their night trains: seats, couchettes, and sleepers. While seats are only for the bravest, couchettes and sleepers offer a more comfortable journey. Couchettes can hold up to six people, whereas sleepers are private compartments for one to three people. They sometimes include a private bathroom or even a shower, sometimes only a sink.
Regiojet operates both night trains and night buses across Europe, providing various travel options. Their night trains feature several types of cabins, including seats that can recline slightly for added comfort, as well as private sleeping couchettes that accommodate one to four passengers, equipped with bedding and duvets. Wifi is available and breakfast and coffee are complimentary. The night buses are designed with comfortable, spacious seats that recline, providing ample legroom. Each bus is equipped with individual power outlets, free hot drings, free WiFi, and onboard entertainment systems to enhance the travel experience. Buses also feature a toilet.
