A world of experiences on tourist trains across Spain.
(The Transcantabrico, Costa Verde Express, Al Andalus train, and the La Robla Express)
Why choose the Transcantabrico for your next trip? There are several reasons why this luxury tourist train is an excellent choice for visiting the north of Spain. Firstly, the Transcantabrico train offers first-class service, and its itinerary unfolds in one of Spain’s most interesting regions to explore. It provides a unique travel experience, with stunning landscapes of the territories visited in northern Spain: the Basque Country, Cantabria, Asturias, and Galicia (The Green Spain), and the opportunity to visit historic coastal cities, mountainous landscapes, and charming villages full of history.
Secondly, the Transcantabrico train is a comfortable and safe way to travel. You won’t have to worry about carrying luggage; you travel in your accommodation on rails, and each day you’ll be in a different place to visit, accompanied by tour guides who will show you around in detail. You’ll have freedom of movement within the train and can visit the lounge cars as you please (lounge cars: panoramic, bar, restaurant, library…).
A journey where gastronomy is an important part of the trip, whether on board meals prepared by the train’s chef or those enjoyed outside in the places visited, always in top-notch restaurants selected in advance.
We recommend making reservations in advance, as the Transcantabrico is one of the most in-demand luxury tourist trains with a very limited number of seats (28 passengers), and based on our experience from previous years, bookings were made several months before departure, and seats fill up quickly, well in advance.
