Introducing Great Trains of Europe Tours

If you think that there has to be a better way to see Europe than from the inside of a tourist coach hurtling down the motorway, lunching at motorway cafes, and making whistlestop overnights in plastic “look alike” motels, then we invite you to join us on the Great Trains of Europe Tours.

We are a boutique Australian-based tour company specialising in historical / cultural tours of Europe, travelling on Europe's great trains. We offer only a limited number of tours each year, all personally led by the company owner / manager, who has more than 30 years experience as an historian / tour guide.
