What are our European tours like? Our tour researchers Dave and Rob have spent many years travelling by train across Europe. They’ve both got plenty of stories to tell, but the following pages represent some of their very favourite places outside of the UK. Tours are designed with the same ethos as our UK programme:

A great way to start your holiday! For almost all our continental European tours we meet at the ‘Railtrail Meeting Point’ at St Pancras – Searcys St Pancras Champagne Bar, where your Tour Manager will be on hand to greet you with a welcome drink.

Our Grand Tours by Rail , found towards the centre of this brochure, have proven so popular that we have expended the programme again. These tours are longer, quite unique and, as they are limited to one departure, they fill quickly. You can travel with us from Land’s End to John O’Groats , follow Michael Palin’s tracks from Derry to Kerry or even discover Six Wonders of the Waterways . Overseas you can take a Grand Tour of Norway , Sweden & Hanseatic Germany or a totally unique French holiday with a difference . Finally, our Grand Tour of Europe by EuroCity crosses no less than eight countries visiting great cities, lakes and mountains.
