Our Great Train Tours
The group atmosphere of our tours makes them the ideal way for single travellers to travel through Europe by train. All of our holidays can be joined by single travellers, although if you are looking for a holiday alone you may be interested in rail tours from our "Holidays for Single Travellers" programme. These rail tours do not have a supplementary charge for travelling alone and are escorted by a Tour Manager. When travelling through Europe by train with us you never have to worry about dining alone in the evening as many meals are included in the itinerary and are normally enjoyed together by the entire group, who share tables and discuss the day's sights. Although you are free to explore independently if you wish.
