Holidays by Train

Enhance your adventure by taking the train

Settle in and admire the views as you sweep through Europe’s vast and varied countryside. Meet local people and discover hidden gems that unsuspecting air travellers miss out on. Train travel helps us to fully relax on holiday and take stock of our surroundings. Whether you book your train travel through us, or organise it yourself, opting to take the train to your trip has so many benefits. Read on for just a few…

• Travel in comfort

  Swap all the queuing and waiting around, for smooth, stress-free journeys. Whether sleek, high-speed sleepers or leisurely regional trains, Europe’s rail network provides the opportunity to travel very comfortably (and in some cases, luxuriously!).

• Care for the planet

  Train travel has a far lower carbon impact than travel by plane or even car. For example, travelling from London to Amsterdam on the train produces about 80% less carbon per individual than flying. (You can read about how Exodus Travels is taking action on climate change here.)

• Extend the adventure

  Travelling by train means your adventure starts almost at your front door and allows you to explore Europe (and beyond) in a unique way. Picture lunch in Paris before continuing your journey through charming provincial towns and countryside to your final destination. You won’t miss a thing!

• Easier than you might think

  We can arrange your train travel (including accommodation along the way) to the small group adventures shown below, and will continue expanding this service across other trips. Just call our team on 03301 733 373 for routes, prices and to book, or see an overview of the train route in the ‘Joining Instructions’ of the Trip Notes for each trip.

  We can also book your train travel to all our self-guided holidays across the length and breadth of Europe. Give our self-guided holiday team a call on 0203 733 9727 to discuss the options.

  There are a number of sites that make it easy for you to plan and book your own train journey to our trips, such as Man in Seat 61, RailEurope and TheTrainline. Exodus Client, Barbara Wilcox, has been taking the train to our trips for many years; read her advice here.
