Rail holidays around the world

Experience the golden age of travel

From laid back cross-country voyages to high-speed holiday transport, you’d be surprised where rail can take you.

With fine dining, best-in-class service and room to relax in style as the landscape rolls by, a rail journey transports you back to a time when holidays were as much about the journey as the destination.

Choose from a range of escorted group and independent itineraries and explore the world at a slower pace. Discover Africa from the sumptuous comfort of a lovingly restored vintage train carriage, enjoy five-star cuisine as you take an epic voyage through the Canadian Rocky Mountains, or see the Alps from Switzerland’s most scenic railway. 

Travelling by rail is also a fast, convenient and environmentally conscious way of combining a few destinations in one trip. Lots of our tours combine train journeys with stays in hotels or sundowner cruises, so you can go further and get more from your rail holiday.
