A TRAIN TRIP ON ( ALMOST ) EVERY CONTINENT

TIME IS OUR GREATEST LUXURY . DISCOVER THE CHARM OF SLOW-MOVING , ON-THE-GROUND TRANSPORT ACROSS EVERY CORNER OF THE GLOBE .
WORDS / JENNA BUEGE

In a fast-paced world , traveling slowly feels counterintuitive . We want to get from point A to point B as quickly as possible . So why would our vacations be any different ? Enter train travel , a mode of transportation from a bygone era that , while often overlooked , has never truly gone out of style .

The truth is , with a plethora of incredible multi-day expeditions across nearly every corner of the globe , train travel is one of the industry ’ s best-kept secrets . Add top-notch accommodations , culinary delights and unmatched views of the earth ’ s vast landscapes to the mix and it becomes wonderfully apparent that when you travel by rail , the adventure is in the journey itself .
