Eliminate the Hassles Of European Rail Travel

The major cities and attractions in Europe you long to see are linked by the extensive European rail network , a vast rail system stretching over 160,000 miles. And rail travel in Europe eliminates all the hassles that can play a part in a complex European itinerary.

This means:

• Travel city center to city center
• No maneuvering through crowded airports located miles from the nearest city
• No hailing taxis from airport to the city centre
• No traffic headaches driving in and out of big European cities or trying to understand foreign road signs

European trains provide a frequent service, are roomy, eminently punctual, and take passengers directly from one bustling  European city to the next without the bother of airport transfers.

Rail travel in Europe allows you to see some of the most breathtaking scenery in the eastern hemisphere -- certainly more than they will see soaring 35,000 feet above the Continent!

Today's  European Rail Experience

Maybe you have toured Europe by train as college students, armed with a giant backpack and a second-class railpass. Or you may be someone whose idea of a European train trip is the overpriced, unreliable commuter rail you take to and from the nearest city each day.

Those who have not experienced the excitement and affordability of today's European railways and are in for a big surprise.

A first-class train trip in Europe is a totally different experience from what you might expect or remember. Unless, of course, what you remember is the absolute freedom and flexibility of hopping from city to city, town to town, every few days on a different European train with schedules that run like clockwork!

Today's first-class rail experience in Europe is one of:

• spacious, reclining seats
• leisurely dining
• soaking up magnificent landscapes without a care in the world
• a great opportunity to socialize

A delightful departure from the typical European vacation, rail trips through Europe create treasured memories that last a lifetime.
