Europe by Rail

Tourists leaving the Prague train station

United in diversity, connected by rails

One of rail travel’s greatest advantages is how it connects urban centres and tiny villages without skipping over all the amazing scenery along the way. Europe’s extensive railways tie the continent together via routes that are as gorgeous as they are efficient; the slow-rolling Glacier Express offers jaw-dropping view of the Swiss Alps, France’s high-speed TGVs zip you from one end of the country to the other in style, and the networks of Germany, Austria, and Central Europe make exploring the continent’s cultural capitals easy and breezy. Europe wasn’t designed with train travel in mind, it just feels that way.
