A Beginner's Guide to Train Travel in Europe
Great Rail Journeys offer some fantastic tours around the world and there are many to choose from that use train travel in Europe. As a continent, Europe varies from sandy beaches, palm trees and blazing sun to snow capped mountains, icy waters and majestic fjords. Although the climate varies throughout the continent, Europe's wealth of culture is prevalent right through. When you book with us you can sit back, relax and watch as the changing scenery passes you by. On our multi-centre holidays guests have the opportunity to visit many different countries in one trip, sampling the very best a region has to offer.
The Advantages of Taking Train Holidays to Europe
Taking any train holiday enables guests to enjoy the true meaning of travel by being able to open their minds to new landscapes and experiences. Many of our holidays that involve train travel in Europe are able to bypass all air travel so that guests can start their holiday as soon as they leave their homes, instead of when they arrive at their destination. Many tours start at St. Pancras International on the Eurostar service to get to mainland Europe where trains can then be boarded to take guests to their first destination. There is so much to choose from if you are looking for a rail holiday in Europe with holidays available in every season.
A Selection of Tours throughout Europe
We have a wide range of tours for you to choose from that use train travel. Europe consists of many different countries that guests can visit to get a feel for the culture. The Ancient Empires of the Med tour takes guests through the ancient wonders of Italy, Greece and Sicily with visits to Egypt and Israel and is truly a cross country and cross continental tour. For a tour with a little less heat the Grand Arctic Circle Explorer takes guests to Copenhagen, Stockholm, Trondheim and Oslo to name a few. This tour departs in June and July so the temperatures are not as extreme as they would be in the winter! There are also tours of the United Kingdom available if you want a holiday that uses train travel in Europe, one of these tours is Lands End to John O'Groats that travels from Falmouth in Cornwall to Edinburgh in Scotland.
