A Beginner's Guide to Europe - Rail Journeys
Spiral around the snow capped Alps, sail along the French Riviera or journey through the Scottish highlands, there is an abundance of choice on our Europe rail journey holidays. The continent of Europe offers many possibilities when you are looking for a holiday as it ranges from luxury exotic locations to bustling cities and remote villages. As well as a vast array of destinations to choose from, guests can also choose specialist breaks in Europe such as festive and new year tours, rail cruises and single travellers holidays. We have many Europe rail journey holidays that are well loved by our customers and so are run year after year, so you can rest assured you will be seeing the best of an area when you holiday with us.
Multi-Centre European Holidays

We have a variety of holidays that visit destinations in different countries and even continents, all on one tour. There are multi-centre holidays that allow guests to explore a smaller area in great detail or cover a large area of landscape and culture. These kinds of holidays are perfect if you are looking for the holiday of a lifetime and travelling to Europe by rail journey prolongs your holiday even more as the travelling becomes part of the fun. An example of one of our European multi-centre holidays is the Slovenia, Croatia and the Adriatic tour that takes guests on a tour of former Yugoslavia's stunning scenery and landmarks. The Ancient Empires of the Med tour takes guests cross country and cross continent stopping at Rome, Greece and Egypt.
Single Travellers Tours

From discovering the quiet and quaint villages of Germany to the varied but beautiful architecture of Prague, single travellers are spoilt for choice on our Europe rail journey holidays. If you book a holiday out of the single travellers programme of tours you will not have to pay a single supplement but will still enjoy sole use of a hotel room with en suite. We have Christmas, New Year and holidays that are run all year round for single travellers, however; if you like the look of a holiday that isn't featured on the programme of tours for single travellers you are welcome to join one of our regular holidays. On our holidays up to 15% of guests are often single travellers but we regret we do have to charge a single supplement on these tours.
