There’s no finer way to see the classic scenery of Yorkshire than being pulled along by a 

steam train with the smell of smoke and the sound of the whistle taking you back in time. 

This is exactly what the North Yorkshire Moors Railway offers and our return journey will 

be one to remember, with free time in the historic coastal town of Whitby. We also enjoy a 

steam train trip along the edge of the Yorkshire Dales as well as an incredible return journey 

along one of the last great mainline railways to be built in the country, the Settle-Carlisle 

Railway, which crosses a staggering mosaic of landscapes. So join us for railways galore from 

the dales to the moors, with a cheeky taste of creamy, crumbly Wensleydale cheese. 

Day 1: Yorkshire

in the UK and has links to Captain Cook and 

Dracula! 

Day 3: Settle-Carlisle Railway 

Today we enjoy a return journey on the Settle- 

Carlisle Railway so you can sit back and admire 

the scenery from both directions. This line pays 

testament to the ingenuity of 19th-century 

railway engineers as it travels over 72 miles 

through the North Pennines, Eden Valley and 

Yorkshire Dales, crossing 19 viaducts and passing 

through 14 tunnels. The Ribblehead viaduct is a

FROM 

£659 

Journey through a storybook landscape of towering hilltops, ancient castles, enchanting 

forests and old-world towns, which are all infused with history and legends, and bound 

together by the mighty Rhine. Our relaxing holiday is a wonderful way to see this famous 

river valley as we step aboard the Vulkan Express –a delightfully preserved railway that 

whisks you up the Eifel mountains, we also enjoy a journey on the Dragon Rock Railway, 

the home of German legend; ride in a horse-drawn carriage in the beautiful Ahr valley, 

take a scenic boat trip along the Rhine and discover the highlights of the magnificent city 

of Cologne and the pretty wine town of Rüdesheim – all of which is enjoyed from our 

riverside base with rail travel throughout. 

Day 1: London – Remagen 

We journey from London to Brussels by Eurostar, 

where we join the high-speed rail connection to 

Cologne. From here we take a local train along 

the Rhine to Remagen and check in at our hotel, 

our base for the next five nights. 

Day 2: Cologne 

Our rail journey today takes us to Cologne, a city 

dominated by its magnificent gothic cathedral. 

A climb up the south tower to the viewing 

platform rewards you with extensive views 

across the city and the Rhine. The architecture 

is striking, from Romanesque churches, simple 

post-war and classic modern buildings, to many 

historic monuments. A walk into the medieval 

old city reveals the lively old market square 

and historic town hall, the oldest in Germany. 

Cologne also offers excellent shopping and is 

of course most famous for its eau de cologne 

legacy. We travel by rail for a short stay in Bonn, 

before enjoying a scenic boat trip along the 

Rhine which takes us to Königswinter. From 

here we take a journey on a small train up the 

Drachenfels (Dragon Rock). This is the most 

famous of the seven Siebengebirge mountains 

and, according to legend, is where Siegfried slew 

the dragon who lived in a cave on the mountain. 

Although you aren’t likely to spot any dragons 

on your train ride, the scenery is striking. After 

a delightful return journey, we take a train and a 

ferry across the Rhine and return to our hotel. 

Day 3: Ahr Valley 

We travel by train along the Ahr valley, an area 

of broad plateaux and narrow gorges where 

picturesque half-timbered towns nestle in the 

landscape and castles crown hill summits. This is 

the most northerly of Germany’s wine-producing 

regions that is mostly dedicated to the production 

of red wines. Seldom is this wine exported so 

our special excursion to Bad Neuenahr-Ahrweiler 

will give us the opportunity to sample some and 

purchase a souvenir bottle or two, as well as enjoy 

a horse-drawn carriage ride. 

Day 4: Vulkan Express 

We enjoy a nostalgic ride on the Vulkan Express, a 

privately owned narrow gauge train. The journey, 

through one of the most scenic valleys of the 

Rhine, takes 1½ hours, passing castles, crossing 

viaducts and going through a tunnel as we ascend 

the Eifel mountains to the village of Engeln. 

Day 5: Rüdesheim 

Today we travel through the Rhine Gorge by 

train, passing the legendary Lorelei to reach 

the quaint wine town of Rüdesheim. The 

Drosselgasse is the hub, lined with taverns 

serving the Rheingau region’s finest riesling wines. 

The Niederwald monument, which depicts the 

mythical figure of Germania, can be reached by 

cable car, where spectacular views of the Rhine 

valley and castles can be enjoyed. The ruins 

of Ehrenfels Castle is another idyllic location, 

surrounded by vineyards above the Rhine Gorge. 

Day 6: Remagen – London 

We depart our hotel in the morning and retrace 

our route to Brussels, where we join Eurostar for 

the return to London.

loved to paint, and the world famous Palace of Versailles, built by the ostentatious Sun 

King – Louis XIV. We also venture into the Loire valley, known as the ‘valley of the kings’, to 

visit the home of Leonardo da Vinci and the magnificent Château de Chenonceau, which 

straddles the Cher river and is linked to a long list of noble residents who fell in love with 

the place. Based in Rambouillet, in the Île-de-France, we are in the perfect place to enjoy a

and Queen, and the King’s Bedchamber. In the 

afternoon we travel to Chartres for free time to 

explore the half-timbered medieval streets and 

the iconic cathedral with its magnificent 12thcentury 

stained glass windows. 

Day 3: The Loire valley 

Today we venture into the Loire valley to visit 

the elegant town of Amboise; its majestic 

château overlooking the Loire river is the final 

resting place of the great Leonardo da Vinci. In

a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture which 

spans the Cher river. Learn about the influential 

women who resided here, including Diane de 

Poitiers and Catherine de Medici, and see the 

treasures inside, including the room of Five 

Queens and the living room of Louis XIV. 

Day 4: Monet’s Garden – London 

This morning we travel by coach to the small 

village of Giverny, home to Claude Monet for 

over 40 years. The gardens here are among the 

finest in France and the inspiration for many of 

his great works, with beautiful plants and the lily 

pond with its famous green Japanese bridge and 

weeping willows. In the afternoon we join our 

Eurostar connection for the return from Paris to 

London, arriving back in the early evening.

The Côte d’Azur, on the French Riviera, is one of the most stylish coastlines in the world, a 

playground for the rich and famous who come here to enjoy long sunny days beneath 

sapphire skies. But you don’t have to be rich – or famous – to holiday here. With 

accommodation in St Raphaël, a pretty town on the Mediterranean, we take you to some 

of the most well-known places where not only can you experience the glitz and glamour, 

but also the natural beauty of this area, which was once filled with sleepy fishing villages. 

There’s also plenty of time to explore the resort, relax on the beach and unwind in this 

delightful destination. 

Day 1: London – St Raphaël 

We journey from London to Lille or Paris by 

Eurostar and continue by TGV to St Raphaël, our 

base for the next seven nights. 

Day 2: St Raphaël 

Today is free for you to relax in our traditional 

Côte d’Azur resort. Situated between Cannes 

and St Tropez, St Raphaël has many highlights 

including the Basilica of Notre Dame de la 

Victoire, the picturesque old port and its bustling 

marina, pretty belle époque buildings which 

line the seafront, and a stunning coastline with 

sheltered bays and fine sandy beaches. 

Day 3: St Tropez 

The destination for jet-setters the world over, 

St Tropez has a glamorous reputation yet it still 

maintains the charm of a small fishing village. 

Our excursion takes us by boat, avoiding the 

traffic and taking in the coastal scenery along 

the way. Spend some time around Vieux Port 

and admire the luxury yachts; explore La Ponche, 

the oldest and most attractive part of town; 

St Tropez 

take a walk to the 16th-century citadel and 

enjoy fantastic views; watch games of pétanque 

beneath the plane trees in Place des Lices; stroll 

from beach to beach along the coastal path – 

there’s plenty to enjoy. 

Day 4: Nice – Monte Carlo 

This morning we take the train to Nice, which 

is celebrated for its Promenade de Anglais – it’s 

the perfect place for a leisurely stroll, gazing out 

across the Mediterranean and enjoying a crêpe 

from one of the stalls. The old town is filled with 

historical monuments including the Palace de 

Justice – a grand 19th-century mansion, and the 

domed cathedral of Sainte-Reparate. Taking a 

short rail journey along the coastline, our next 

destination is Monte Carlo, a playground for the 

rich and famous and home to the renowned 

grand prix circuit and exquisite harbour. Admire 

the casino, walk around the gardens or, for a 

small cost, you can take a circular bus tour. 


Take the opportunity to venture into the 

surrounding hills and explore one of the quaint 

towns – Frejus is only a short walk away and is 

home to many Roman sites. 

Day 6: St Paul de Vence 

Our optional coach excursion today takes us 

to the village of St Paul de Vence. The winding 

streets exude beauty, with vine-covered stone 

walls and elegant fountains and statues; even the 

cobblestones are laid in floral patterns. Due to its 

hilltop location, you can also catch breathtaking 

views of the mountains and sea. 


Today is free for you to relax and explore at 

leisure. 

Day 8: St Raphaël – London

Highlights of Corsica 

Little Trains & Spectacular Scenery 

Relax and unwind on the little French island that basks in the Mediterranean sun. Known as 

‘l’ile de beaute’, Corsica is home to some of the most picturesque railways in Europe. These 

little trains run on single tracks and pass amazing scenery as they travel across mountains 

and along coastline, stopping at quaint villages along the way. From the mountainous heart 

of Corsica to the capital city of Ajaccio on the coast, we travel aboard the little trains and 

stay in four popular towns so you can enjoy the highlights of the different corners of this 

beautiful island.

Enjoy a full day exploring the town of Bastia. The 

old port is a good place to start, where you can 

wander through the quaint streets and admire 

the Italianate architecture. Place St Nicolas is the 

social hub of the town and a great place to soak 

up the atmosphere with views across the sea and 

a statue of Napoléon. There’s also the citadel 

which offers rewarding views. 

Day 4: Bastia – Calvi 

After breakfast we join the Trinicellu (Little Train). 

This narrow gauge railway is an experience not to 

be missed, following the coast with spectacular

deep blue sea and passing through Ile de Rousse 

and the village of Ponte Leccia. On arrival in Calvi 

we transfer to our hotel, our base for the next 

two nights.

The small town of Calvi is in an idyllic location 

with a large sheltered bay to the front and

scenery, with the citadel rising high up from a 

rocky outcrop. The town is a delight to explore, 

thriving with a cosmopolitan air along with the 

bustle of pavement cafés and bars, and if you 

follow the narrow streets up to the citadel you 

can enjoy wonderful elevated views. Later in 

the day we board the train for Ajaccio for our 

two-night stay. This route is ranked as one of 

the most scenic railways in the world, crossing

of tower fame, before passing through the 

Vizzavona Forest, a swathe of lofty laricio pines 

and chestnut trees.

With the warm sea breeze of the Mediterranean and the shelter of the Maritime Alps, this 

beautiful stretch of Italian coast is the perfect suntrap where a colourful paradise of exotic 

plants and flowers nestles among pastel-coloured towns filled with old-world elegance. 

Based in the charming resort of Diano Marina, we spend six nights in our seafront hotel 

– a favourite among our customers – and enjoy some quiet days by the sea, along with 

the chance to visit surrounding highlights. San Remo in particular is known as the ‘city of 

flowers’ and hosts the liveliest flower market in Europe, while further along the coast we 

find the pretty fishing village of Portofino, regarded as the jewel of the Italian Riviera. 

Day 1: London – Diano Marina 


Paris or Lille and continue by TGV to Nice, where 

we are taken by coach to Diano Marina, on the 

beautiful Italian Riviera. 

Day 2: Diano Marina 

Today is free for you to spend at leisure in our 

pretty resort, surrounded by hills and coast. You 

can relax in our hotel and enjoy the facilities, 

head to the fine sandy beach, or venture into the 

old town to browse the shops and sample local 

delicacies. There’s also an 11th-century castle 

where traces of the town’s ancient past can be 

found. If you want to explore further afield, 

the nearby medieval village of Cervo, with its 

combination of cobbled alleys, terraces, arches 

and rooftops, is a delightful place to visit. 

Day 3: Dolceacqua & San Remo 

The hilltop village of Dolceacqua enjoys a 

picture perfect setting and is filled with striking 

architecture. The Nervia river runs through its 

heart, separating the village into two parts – 

the oldest called Terra, which is dominated by 

the Doria Castle, and the newest called Borgo. 

Dolceacqua 

Both are connected by a spectacular medieval 

bridge, described by Claude Monet as “a jewel of 

lightness”. We also visit San Remo, Italy’s answer to 

France’s Monte Carlo. The atmospheric old town, 

known as ‘La Pigna’, is tightly packed with buildings 

that cling to a steep hill. There are also two 

ports where you can see luxurious yachts, busy 

shopping streets and broad tree-lined boulevards. 

Day 4: Portofino 

We travel by coach to Santa Margherita and take 

the ferry to enjoy the dramatic coastal scenery on 

our way to Portofino. This pretty crescent-shaped 

village retains all of its traditional charms, despite 

its jet-set reputation. You can explore the harbour 

with its brightly coloured buildings, follow one 

of the scenic pathways to the beach or the light 

house, or visit the 16th-century hilltop castle and 

enjoy wonderful views across the Mediterranean 

to the French island of Corsica.

that lead out to the Promenade du Soleil and 

a beautiful sandy beach. Our next stop is the 

Hanbury Botanical Gardens, the inspiration of 

English businessman Sir Thomas Hanbury. Visitors 

can follow pathways that wind through 45 acres 

of plants, fountains and statues, leading down to 

a little café by the sea.

Mediterranean Sea while passing through lovely 

resorts. Our coach takes us from the station 

into the historic centre of Pisa, known as the 

‘Piazza dei Miracoli’ which translates to ‘Square 

of Miracles’, where you will find the Baptistery 

of St John, the cathedral and the famous Leaning 

Tower. After some free time to admire the 

surroundings, we travel by coach to Montecatini 

Terme for our four-night stay. 

Day 3: Montecatini Terme 

Enjoy a day at leisure in Montecatini Terme – 

Italy’s most famous spa town, tucked away in

funicular railway takes you up to the hill town 

of Montecatini Alto for panoramic views of the 

area. 

Day 4: The Cinque Terre 

Today we explore one of Italy’s most enchanting 

coastal regions, the Cinque Terre. These five 

villages perch on sheer cliffs which overlook the 

sea and are surrounded by hills and vineyards. 

We explore four of the villages, making our 

first stop in Manarola where you can explore 

the tiny harbour, piazza and colourful houses, 

before taking a local train to Riomaggiore. We 

are then taken by boat to the ancient fishing 

village of Monterosso. You can take a dip in the 

azure sea and enjoy a delicious Liguarian lunch 

(not included) in one of the restaurants, before 

we continue to Vernazza to explore the narrow 

lanes and steep stairways known as ‘carruggi’. 

We continue by rail along the coast to La Spezia, 

before returning by coach to our hotel. 

The Cinque Terre 

Day 5: Florence 

The capital of Tuscany, Florence, is our 

destination by rail today. Florence is like an 

open air museum, so the best way to explore is 

by walking through the cobbled streets, freely 

admiring the piazzas and palazzos which were 

designed by illustrious artists such as Brunelleschi 

and Michelangelo. You can join our guided tour 

to get your bearings and see some of the main 

sights, before spending the afternoon at leisure. 

Day 6: Lucca & the Italian Coast 

Lucca is arguably one of Tuscany’s best-kept 

secrets, hidden by ancient ramparts and gardens 

that surround the old city. Explore Anfiteatro 

Square; climb the Guinigi Tower which has 

an ancient oak tree growing on top; wander 

along the typical antique dealers’ street. In the 

afternoon we return to Pisa and take the train to 

Diano Marina for a relaxing four-night stay in our 

seafront hotel. 

Day 7 to 9: The Italian Riviera of Flowers 

For the next three days you can relax and soak 

up the sun in Diano Marina. Enjoy miles of sandy

with its combination of cobbled alleys, terraces, 

arches and rooftops, it’s a delightful place to 

explore. We also offer an optional excursion to

green water. For a small fee you can also take 

a traditional wooden pletna boat (there are

the middle of the lake, or you can hire your own 

rowing boat for a more personal experience.

Predil mountain pass and crossing the border 

into Italy, where we spend some time on the 

shore of the small but spectacular Lake Predil.

Little Trains of the Pyrenees 

Day 1: London – Roses 

We journey aboard Eurostar from London to Paris 

and continue by rail to Perpignan where we are 

transferred to the unspoilt town of Roses on the 

Costa Brava, our base for the next seven nights. 

Day 2: Roses Express 

Enjoy a morning at leisure and relax in our hotel, 

take a stroll around the old town of Roses, or 

head to the wide, sandy beach. In the afternoon 

we head towards the citadel on the seafront 

where we join the Roses Express. This delightful 

little road train is pulled by an ornate tractor and 

climbs into the hills of the Cap de Creus national 

park to give you spectacular views across Roses. 

Day 3: The Yellow Train of the Pyrenees 

Today we spend the day in France and the 

French Pyrenees on our included excursion. Our 

first stop is the medieval walled city of Thuir, 

which nestles at the foot of the Pyrenees and is 

surrounded by vineyards. Here we taste some 

local wine before travelling to Villefranche to join 

the Yellow Train for an unforgettable journey 

through the Pyrenees. Sit back and relax as the 

line winds its way up the Tet valley, through 

forests and tunnels and across ravines and 

viaducts. We alight from the train at the small 

mountain village of Font Romeu and return to 

our hotel by coach. 

Day 4: Roses 

Do as much or as little as you choose with a day 

at leisure in Roses. 

The Yellow Train of the Pyrenees 

The Pyrenees mountain range is a special realm which remains largely unexplored 

compared to its alpine counterpart and totally unspoilt. The little trains that traverse these 

jagged peaks, with their brightly coloured carriages and panoramic windows, are a fantastic 

way to get around and we include three of the best on this unique railway break. 

Day 5: Núria Valley Railway of the Pyrenees 

Today’s journey is in Spain on the Núria Valley 

Rack Railway, which is twinned with the Jungfrau 

Rack Railway in Switzerland. It’s the only means 

of transport that accesses the valley, so you are 

guaranteed breathtaking views of mountains and 

meadows as we climb more than 1,000 metres, 

and with the help of a local guide we can learn 

more about this remote region. 

Day 6: The Red Train of the Pyrenees 

Enjoy another day in the French Pyrenees in 

the company of a local guide. This time we join 

the Train du pays Cathere et du Fenouillèdes 

(affectionately called the Red Train), which passes 

through a land of vineyards and castles as it 

slowly climbs over an impressive 60 kilometres 

from Rivesalets to Axat. We enjoy some free 

time in the pretty town of Axat, high in the Aude 

valley, before returning to our hotel by coach. 

Day 7: Figueres & Dalí Museum 

This morning our excursion is to the Catalan 

town of Figueres. A mix of architectural styles 

can be found in the old town along with various 

cultural attractions, the most popular being 

the Dalí Museum which we include entry to. 

This amazing building is dedicated to the town’s 

most famous son, Salvador Dalí, and is highly 

recommended for anyone visiting northern Spain. 

Day 8: Roses – London
