Why
Choose Rail?
Train
travel offers a scenic, comfortable and exciting departure
from the "typical" European vacation.
The
romance of traveling by train continues to enthrall
tourists as it has for more than 170 years, and
nowhere is this felt more profoundly than in Europe.
Rail travel is the best way to get close to all
that Europe has to offer, from big cities and
quaint hamlets to scenic beauty and fascinating
people. It is also the one form of transportation
that conveniently and efficiently takes travelers
practically anywhere and everywhere they want
to go...in style. |

Eliminate
the Hassles
The major cities and attractions you long to see are
linked by the extensive European rail network -- a
vast system stretching over 160,000 miles, as extensive
in size and scope as the U.S. highway system. And
train travel 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 downtown
no
traffic headaches driving in and out of big cities
or trying to understand foreign road signs
European
trains provide frequent service, are roomy, eminently
punctual, and take passengers directly from one bustling
city to the next without the bother of airport transfers.
Train travel 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
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 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 train with
schedules that run like clockwork!
Today's
first-class rail experience 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.

Whether you are on your first visit to Europe, or
planning a repeat trip, chances are you'll find a
railpass that's just right for you. Once you've determined

of time you have to spend and the places you want
to visit within that time, you'll be able to choose
with confidence the Rail Europe railpass that best
