Description
Make room for wanderlust. Let the train ride become part of the holiday, with landscapes shifting outside the window and new places along the track. Amazing Train Journeys brings together 60 train journeys, giving both well-known classics and less obvious routes a place in your travel dreams.
Experiences and content. The book combines photographs, illustrated route maps and overviews of key stops with background on the journeys. Examples include the Flåm Railway, the Douro Line, the Glacier Express, The Ghan, and the train journey between Mombasa and Nairobi. You will also find information on booking, distance and duration, and suggestions for places where the journey can be extended with a stopover along the way.
Who is this book suitable for? This is an inspiration book for anyone who likes the idea that transport can also be an experience. It makes a fine gift for a train enthusiast, or a starting point when your next holiday should follow the rails.
From inspiration to your own plan. Feel free to browse without a fixed plan, and note whatever sparks your curiosity. Compare a well-known destination with one you have not considered before, or let a single experience become the starting point for further reading. The book can also be shared with your travel companions, so you can find which ideas you would most like to explore together.
A physical book is also good to return to throughout the planning process. Bring it out when discussing the next leg of the journey, find an idea you had noted, and let the plan develop as you get to know the possibilities better.
