Taking a tour by train, is possibly the most stress free way of exploring the world and there are more advantages of joining an escorted tour. All Great Rail Journeys tours are accompanied by a Tour Manager who is on hand to assist throughout the trip and to oversee the planned excursions. Should you choose to eschew our pre-planned excursions then your Tour Manager will be able to offer advice on alternative sights in the region and any local traditions you can experience on your tour.
