Five Vacations You Will Love to Travel by Overnight Train

You’re in the middle, surrounded by miles upon miles of beautiful natural scenery. Relax onboard the Overnight Train by taking a front-row seat!

Many riders consider the views the best part about the train ride and keep returning for more. The views would not be as beautiful without the friendly atmosphere and relaxed pace onboard, especially if you’re traveling long distances or overnight. It’s a unique experience that you won’t find anywhere else. The food, accommodations, people, and friendly staff make it unforgettable. If you plan to spend more than one night on the train, consider upgrading to a roomette (or a bedroom) and enjoying the added privacy and comfort of your own space onboard the train.

These 5 rail adventures are just as much about the train ride as the incredible destinations they take you. You can experience the trains and train life from the train’s perspective on each vacation. You don’t need to take a separate trip to reach the train station. Each journey can be started and ended at the nearest station.
