Rail trip through Lisbon, Porto, Galicia, and Madrid

Railbookers runs this independent rail package across Portugal and Spain, starting in Lisbon and finishing in Madrid, with stops in Porto and the Galician city of Santiago de Compostela along the way. In Porto, the operator points travellers to sampling Port wine before the train crosses into Galicia for two nights in Santiago de Compostela, a World Heritage Site the operator calls an ancient city. From there, the trip continues by train to Madrid for further sightseeing. The package runs 9 days and 8 nights, and because it is self-guided, travellers explore each stop at their own pace. It suits travellers who want one booking covering both Portugal and Spain's Atlantic north.
