Tips for selecting a
rail tour package
You could start by searching on google for travel
sites specializing in: rail tour packages, europe rail tour
vacations, rail tour canada etc. Define your search as clearly as
possible, because if you just type in 'vacation travel packages'
you'll get results like 'top luxury hotels', when you're really
looking for information on rail tour vacations in a particular
destination.
Decide also whether you want to travel in a tour
group with an escorted train tour or plan your own self-guided
tour. Remember too; any type of vacation travel can be exhausting,
so choose a vacation destination, tour, or time frame to meet with
your own personal needs. For example, many escorted coach tours
start with breakfast at 6am every day.

Many rail vacation tours include a range of wonderful day
excursions and city tours lead by experienced local guides.
Some rail tour packages even allow time for you to further
explore the destinations at your own pace and include overnight
luxury hotel accommodation (which can be a break from your train
accommodation). The important thing is to select a train tour
package that meets your individual needs and comfort
requirements.
If you are in good health and ready for a vacation then train
travel is a wonderful way to see the sites. You can experience some
of the world’s greatest rail journeys and travel on board legendary
trains, such as The Ghan train in Australia, the Glacier Express in
Switzerland, or the Palace on Wheels in India.
