Rail Travel in Europe

Discover fairytale medieval towns, breathtaking landscapes and a combination of cultures on a Treyn holiday. There are many delights to rail travel in Europe, including the opportunity to cover vast distances whilst admiring the passing scenery of lush vineyards, dramatic mountains and pretty meadows. The continent also has many of art and history's greatest treasures, from ancient Roman ruins to the works of Leonardo da Vinci and Picasso in Europe's most famous art galleries and museums. Rail travel in Europe also offers you the opportunity to visit a variety of cities and even countries on one trip, so you can take in an array of different architecture and atmospheres on a single tour. Whether you visit in winter when pure white snow clings to the Alps or in summer when bright flowers adorn Europe's hillside, there will be plenty of breathtaking natural beauty to be admired from the comfort of your rail carriage. Heritage and narrow-gauge rail travel through Europe is also included on many of our holidays. These trains take exceptionally picturesque routes, winding through valleys and up steep mountains, offering views that are often inaccessible to alternative means of transport. Take a look at our wide range of holidays to find out more about the many attractions that can be reached by rail travel in Europe.
