London city break via high-speed train from Basel through Paris
Railbookers offers this 4-day, 3-night independent rail package that travels by high-speed train from Basel to London, via Paris. The description frames the trip as a three-night holiday in London, one that would also make a good extension to a river cruise holiday, taking travelers from Basel into the city by train rather than by air. Once in London, the trip leaves time to see the city's sights and take in what the description calls special experiences, though specific attractions and hotels are not named. As an independent rail package rather than an escorted tour, travelers plan their own days once they arrive. This suits travelers already touring Europe, particularly by river cruise, who want to add a London stay to their trip. Prices start from $749 per person.
