Train travel can be considered as one of the most glamorous ways to travel, and it is definitely the most memorable! It also gives you the chance to discover some truly spectacular railway stations that will have you gawking in amazement from the moment you walk through the doors.
Glam it up on the Orient Express
Cross Europe in ultimate luxury by booking yourself into one of the Orient-Express’ gleaming coaches. With its opulent interiors, stylish decor and exquisite food, you will feel spoilt from the moment you set foot onto the platform. See historic London landmarks, the magnificent Antwerp Central station, the glitzy world of opera in Vienna. You can even enjoy some splendid performances and live entertainment at Istanbul’s beautiful Sirkeci railway station.
Take in African splendour
Travel across some of Africa’s most spectacular locations on the Pride of Africa route. Stop off for a chance to see the breathtaking Victoria Falls, venture out on a safari adventure and do some sightseeing in Cape Town.
Follow Dr Zhivago across Siberia
Travelling along, what is undoubtedly, one of the world’s most famous (and longest) railways, the Trans-Siberian Express will take you on an epic journey across the whole of the Eurasian continent and seven time zones. The untouched beauty of Siberian nature, the iconic onion-domes of Orthodox churches and the beautiful towns will pass before your eyes as you enjoy excellent food inside one of the train’s luxurious cabins.
Discover the rugged romance of Scotland
You don’t have to travel to the other side of the world in order to find some breathtaking and spine-tingling visual indulgence. For something a little closer to home, set off on a journey from Glasgow to Mallaig in Scotland. This train will have you speeding through some stunning, dramatic scenery: waterfalls and castle ruins, heather-covered moors and mountain peaks shrouded in clouds. Often cited as one of UK’s most breathtaking train journeys, this trip will give you plenty of memories to treasure.
