Holidays by Train

Travelling by train is a wonderfully civilised alternative to flying.

Forget about the hassles of check-in and long transfers to and from the airport. Just sit back and relax, watching the scenery go by. You can wander along to the buffet car to stretch your legs, or perhaps have a meal served at your seat.

Whether you are looking for an escorted tour from specialists such as Great Rail Journeys and Treyn, a luxury trip on the Orient Express, or an independent holiday to your favourite city or resort, let us give you the benefit of our years of experience.

Of course, you might like to travel in the UK. We can plan any duration of trip for you, from a day out to a full 14-day sightseeing tour. Just tell us which places you would like to vist and we'll work out the itinerary for you and book your accommodation. Take a look at our Rail Rovers page for some ideas - the Freedom of Scotland ticket for instance makes a good basis for a rail tour of Scotland, including CalMac ferries to the islands.
