Top 4 Reasons to Travel by Train in Europe
Easy access
Nearly every city has a station and most of them are served by trains multiple times per day. On domestic routes many trains run hourly if not more often.
Great views
You see more than just clouds or the dirty back of a semi-truck. You experience the beauty of Europe first hand. From the train you see the lush green hills, the colorful cities and the quaint countryside.
No hassle at the borders

Environmentally friendly
