There’s something magical and nostalgic about a rail holiday. It’s a chance to experience the journey as much as the destination, watching the views change through the window while you relax in comfort. Our carefully curated rail itineraries take you directly to the action and into the heart of your destination – no sat nav, no traffic jams, and no risk of getting lost to worry about. We’ll coordinate all your tickets so that all you need to do is relax and watch the world go by – literally.
In Japan, the famous bullet trains make it easy to travel between Tokyo’s busy streets, historic Nagoya, and Osaka, known for its amazing food, all in a short amount of time. Portugal offers a mix of experiences, from Porto’s port wine cellars and colourful tiled buildings to Aveiro’s canals and boats, Coimbra’s historic university, and Lisbon’s lively streets. In eastern Canada, you can travel by train between Toronto, Montreal, Quebec City, and Halifax, with the flexibility and freedom to explore at your own pace.
Rail travel also gives you space to relax, letting you stretch out your legs, and simply enjoy the constantly changing scenery. It’s also one of the more sustainable ways to travel, letting you experience multiple cultures and cities while keeping your carbon footprint low.

Once again 5* brilliance
I spoke with Matt, who was amazing. I told him what I was looking for, and he sent me the quote which was exactly what I had in mind. The booking process was very straightforward and the service so far has been excellent.
Kadie at eShores is really helpful and responds to enquiries really quickly. We used them for a trip to Turkey in 2025, all tranfers went smoothly and the chosen hotels were lovely and of good value. I defintely recomend them
Claire has been very helpful and knowledgeable dealing with our recent enquiry and booking ..she has returned my phone calls as promised and I know I am able to contact her if the need arises ..which it probably will between now and our holiday in Jan '27 😊
Nick was very patient and helpful in finding me the perfect properties for my trip. He was always contactable and kept me up to date with everything. Thank you.

Excellent prompt service from Nick and his associates, adaptable to our needs and budget.
Always great service and every holiday we have booked Dave has been so patient and understanding of what we wanted from each trip.

I never, ever use travel agents or intermediaries for holidays but a potential business class trip to Lombok and Bali presented new challenges in not knowing those islands. I laid out my general requirements and…
Great service prompt and great deal
