It certainly says a lot about travel trends that our number one best-selling travel guide for 2003/2004 is all about rail travel.
In fact, quite a few rail books were present in our top 30, but for now let’s looks at the one taking the number one slot:
Europe by Train
Take to the rails and have a European adventure with this inspiring and practical guidebook.
Packed inside Europe by Train you will find:
– 50 inspiring and practical itineraries for exploring Europe by train.
– Routes cover a variety of distances, from four-day trips to month-long adventures.
– Each route covers either an epic cross-continent journey (eg from the North to the South, East to West) or a particular area, region or country (eg Beneluxe, Northern Italy, Finland), with the text describing the places you stop at rather than the journey between them.
– Practical information details how to get between each stop, total distance travelled, trip duration and ticketing tips.
– Some routes feature suggested detours and opportunities to extend your trip.
Once your head is well and truly packed with rail trip ideas, you’ll be ready to start planning out the details. This handy guidebook has all the route infographics, network maps and practical information – including advice on what tickets to buy, how to catch connections and tips for travelling on night trains – you need to get started. We’ve also included detours and opportunities to extend the route, so you can curate your own rail adventure.
