A selection of longer holidays, completely unique to Railtrail and often limited to one departure and a smaller group size, Grand Tours by Rail Europe aim to share with you many of our favourite experiences on one fabulous Railtrail tour.
The Red Train, the Yellow Train and the Blue Train can be found in many itineraries, but only Railtrail takes you through the heart of the Pyrenees, staying in local hotels and getting to know the region both sides of the border. Our grand tour stays in the foothills and valley stations, primed for spectacular excursions. Add in the Tren del Ciment, a stay on the Catalan coast and the ‘Truffle Train’ through the Dordogne for a fortnight’s adventure not found anywhere else.
Following on from our popular Grand Tours to Sweden, Norway and Denmark, we have bought the best of these tours together to create a brand new and unique tour exploring all three of the Scandinavian Capitals – Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm. But that’s not all, as we also discover heritage railways, gentle cruises and a Royal Palace.
Experience Imperial Europe through great rail journeys, history, culture and elegance. From the vibrancy of Berlin to the beauty of Dresden and the Bohemian Prague to the grandeur of Vienna, this wonderful tour has it all.
