Rail tour expert Ffestiniog Travel says new sleeper connections and seamless rail ticketing enable deeper, slower and more sustainable ways to explore the European Continent without flying. Travelling across Europe by train is enjoying a renewed surge in popularity, with longer journeys made increasingly convenient by a growing network of overnight sleeper services linking major cities and regions.

The train is fast becoming the staple transport tool for the touring traveller according to rail holiday specialist Ffestiniog Travel. The Welsh-based company is a one-stop shop for all rail travel needs – from escorted rail tours, tailored train holidays to selling train tickets for travel across Europe and beyond.

Reminiscent of a bygone era, travelling by steam train makes the journey an integral part of the holiday experience and recaptures the romance of rail. Why not make tracks for one of Ffestiniog Travel’s top five worldwide steam-themed trips?
