Our rail holidays combine the romance of train travel with unforgettable scenery, allowing you to kick back and take in the ever-changing views, spectacular landscapes and historic cities, en route to your destination. From high-speed bullet trains to scenic mountain railways, travelling by train can turn your holiday travel into a proper adventure. Take a look at the best of our rail holidays…
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.
