Grand European Tour

Independent first-class rail tour of six major European cities

Railbookers operates Grand European Tour, a 12-day, 11-night independent rail package that connects six major European cities: Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris, Geneva, Venice and Rome. As an independent trip rather than an escorted tour, Railbookers arranges first-class travel on high-speed trains between destinations while travelers explore each city at their own pace. The operator describes fitting in as much sightseeing as possible in each stop, and the package adds hop-on, hop-off bus tours, city passes and skip-the-line entrance tickets to help travelers make the most of limited time in each place. This trip suits travelers who want to see a broad sweep of Western Europe, from Germany and the Netherlands to France, Switzerland and Italy, in under two weeks, riding first class between stops, without a guide leading each day.
