INSIDER TRAVEL TIPS - OUR TOP TEN ICONIC RAIL JOURNEYS OF THE WORLD!

From the Rocky Mountains to the Orient and everywhere in between, here are our favourite rail journeys. 

Next week, Jules will be trying out the ROCKY MOUNTAINEER in Canada, which offers journeys between Vancouver destinations such as Jasper or Banff.

In South America, visit iconic landmark Machu Picchu and journey on the BELMOND ANDEAN EXPLORER.

Cross the vast expanse of Australia on the INDIAN-PACIFIC TRAIN (which client Nicky did earlier this year) on a 4 day journey between Perth and Sydney.

Travel in style through Southern Africa on the ROVOS RAIL between Cape Town & Victoria Falls (clients Martin and Francis experienced this train in February).  We can combine this with a safari in Zambia or Botswana.

Closer to home one of the most romantic train journeys in the world is the VENICE SIMPLON ORIENT EXPRESS (which we currently have a special offer for) crossing Europe in classical style.

Switzerland has a great selection of trains which pass through stunning alpine scenery.  A favourite tour is the classic GLACIER EXPRESS.

Lastly, if you are up for an adventure and want to combine train travel with the Northern Lights, try the GRAND ARCTIC CIRCLE EXPLORER across the roof of Scandinavia and into the Arctic.
