Winter Rail Holidays in Southern Europe
Embark on a rail holiday across southern Europe this winter and discover enthralling cities while they are at their quietest. Our carefully thought-out itineraries allow you time to appreciate each city, while our self-guided walking tours take you to their lesser-known corners – without missing any of the famous sights.
Travel by train across Andalucía, focusing on either the region’s incredible Moorish legacy – from the humbling Mezquita of Córdoba to Granada’s UNESCO-listed Alhambra palace – or its renowned ‘sherry triangle’. Delve into Spain’s Golden Age on a journey that links Segovia, Salamanca and Madrid, or choose to combine three very different Portuguese cities by rail: Porto, Coimbra, and Lisbon.
Whichever itinerary you choose, you’ll stay in charming hotels which reflect the character of their city, and we’ll guide you to the finest local dining options each destination has to offer.
