Winter & Spring

Winter & Spring Escorted Rail Journeys

Fresh snow blankets the landscape, transforming it into a serene wonderland on guided winter rail journeys. Icicles hang from the trees like sparkling ornaments and bustling town squares take on a hushed allure that invites peaceful strolling and quiet introspection. 

As spring comes and the snow melts in our favourite Alpine destinations, the scenery is transformed and nature comes to life - revealing glorious flower-filled meadows and lush hills. It's the perfect time to travel on spring rail journeys in the Mediterranean and Morocco to experience sunshine and pleasant temperatures.

Winter rail journeys and spring rail journeys are one of the best ways to avoid over crowding from tourists. All of our itineraries are carefully plotted to unveil the hidden depths of a destination, by combining both major attractions and little known sights with the intimate knowledge of a local guide. The draw of the most stunning and culturally interesting attractions is obvious all year round but travelling in spring is a fabulous way to see the spring blossoming of life after winter and enjoy unrivalled access to some of the world's finest destinations on our winter rail journeys.

Classic Glacier Express in Winter
17/Mar
Dr Mike Smith
5 stars
“We were blessed with fine weather, blue sky and sunshine most of the time. Given that, much of the experience was “out of this world“. A breathtaking experience in fact. Excellent and interesting hotels throughout. The tour manager, James Crowe, was friendly, supportive and well organised, providing us with information on each day. Trains were modern, clean, and comfortable throughout, and well designed for maximum viewing. Truly memorable.

“superb holiday. The tour leader Yasmyn ( not sure how to spell it) was very good. Dealt with all train problems well. Hotel was good. The group of people were also very companionable. Overall fantastic. It would have been nice to have had another day, there was more to do. Picture is view from hotel room, lovely.

“Great experience the only reason I haven't score 5 stars is on a couple of occasions when leaving the train stations we had a long walk with our luggage to the hotel, although you had the option of using the "sherpa " service you still needed to carry anything you needed eg. wash kit and some clothing until your suitcase arrived at the hotel, apart from that I would highly recommend this experience wonderful.
