Fly Holidays

When time is of the essence, flying is a fast and convenient way to reach your destination, especially if you're close to a local airport. With a fly-rail option your travel time is reduced, which gives you more time to explore your holiday location.

From great cities to glorious lakes, Italy is a timeless country, with magnificent architecture and a rich culture. Choose a fly-rail tour of undiscovered Puglia in Southern Italy, exploring historic port cities, white-washed villages, and unique dwellings. Uncover the medieval towns of Lake Garda, the palazzos of Lake Maggiore and soak up the tranquility of peaceful Lake Orta. Alternatively, uncover the Greco-Roman treasures of Sicily, the magical city of Venice or uncover hidden villages and the the volcanic island of Stromboli on a tour of unspoilt Calabria.

Why Fly Rail?

Our Fly Rail programme also includes, where possible, superb rail travel in and around your main tour destination. We believe that travelling around by rail really is the best way to see a region, and that's why we include journeys on the finest trains. From efficient high-speed trains in Andalucia to lines that are widely regarded as attractions in themselves, such as Switzerland's magnificent Bernina Express, we admire some of Europe's finest attractions from the rails.

If you would like an overnight stay in a nearby hotel for the first or final night of your tour, simply call our team of Tour Advisors for assistance before departure.

Ideas for European Fly Rail Holidays

Andalucia

Situated on Spain southern coast, Andalucia is an exciting melting pot of cultures that marks the meeting point of Europe and Africa. High-speed rail services have made this region more accessible than ever, but a flight will allow you more time to explore this glorious region, its lively cities and outstanding historic landmarks such as the iconic Alhambra Palace.

Italian Lakes

Taking the train to the world-famous Italian lakes allows you to break the journey with an overnight in France or Switzerland. But flying directly there lets visitors explore more of these lakes and their beautiful surroundings, like the stunning Dolomite Mountains.

Central Europe

Travelling to this fascinating region of grand architecture and rich cultural heritage usually requires a romantic overnight sleeper service. Taking a flight allows you to reach the mesmerising city of Berlin directly.
