Dublin, London, and Edinburgh

10-day rail trip: Dublin, London, Edinburgh, ferry and train

Railbookers operates this 10-day independent rail package across three capital cities: Dublin, London, and Edinburgh. The trip opens in Dublin, where travelers can take a day trip to kiss the Blarney Stone at Blarney Castle, before a ferry crossing to England. From London, described here as a vibrant city, the route continues by train north to Edinburgh, taking in the history and scenery of the Scottish Highlands along the way. Because this is an independent rail package rather than an escorted tour, travelers use pre-arranged transport and hotels between the three cities but set their own pace at each stop, without a tour guide managing the schedule. Priced from $2,699 per person for 9 nights, it suits travelers who want to combine Irish culture, a major English city, and Scottish history and scenery in one trip that mixes ferry and train travel.
