Ten-day rail trip: Munich, Paris, London, and Dublin

Illustration of Munich, Paris, London, and Dublin

Railbookers operates this 10-day, 9-night independent rail vacation from Munich to Dublin, traveling through Paris and London along the way. The trip opens with two nights in Munich, including a guided day trip to Neuschwanstein Castle, before a high-speed train reaches Paris for two nights that include a Montmartre dinner, a Seine dinner cruise, and priority access to the Eiffel Tower summit. The Eurostar then carries travelers under the English Channel to London for three nights, mixing free time with a half-day guided tour past Westminster Abbey, the Elizabeth Tower, and St. Paul's Cathedral. On day 8, a scenic train to Holyhead connects to a ferry crossing to Dublin, where a guided walking tour closes out the trip. With four countries and several transport modes covered in ten days, this suits travelers comfortable with a fuller pace who want a broad sweep of Western Europe rather than time settled in one region. Rail travel and hotel breakfasts are included throughout.

What to know before you look closer

  • Day 8 travels from London to Dublin by train to Holyhead followed by a ferry crossing, a longer, mixed-mode transfer unlike the direct rail legs earlier in the trip.
