Widely known for Flamenco music and dance, bull-fights, beaches and lots
of sunshine, Spain has to offer much more than that. It is one of the cultural
centers of Europe with beautiful cities and towns that offer really old
monuments as well as modern architecture. The various regions are all
different to each other geographically, climatically and even in personality.
In short, Spain is a fascinating country to visit.

Spain is also home to some of Europe's best cruise trains.

The
El Transcantabrico Railway Classic Cruise Train was the first
Spanish tourist luxury train. It has been delighting travellers for the past 27
years. Running between Santiago de Compostela and Leon over the
narrow gauge FEVE railway, all of the magic of northern Spain awaits the
traveller, from the lands of Castile and Leon to the shores of the Bay of
Biscay.


The
El Transcantabrico Gran Lujo Train offers suites twice the size of
those on the classic train, and accommodates just 28 guests in outstanding
comfort.

A railway cruise on the El Transcantabrico offers you delightful gastronomy,
outstanding art, fascinating monuments and landscape, all from the luxury
of your own luxurious touring train.

The
La Robla, sister train to the El Transcantabrico, offers well priced four
day, three night tours that conveniently begin and end in either Bilbao or
Gijon.

New in 2012, the
Al Andalus luxury train operates in Andalucis, southern
Spain. This broad gauge, spacious train offers 5 night cruises through a
beautiful and historic part of the Iberian Peninsular.

All of these fine cruise trains offer an all inclusive tour, starting and ending
in various Spanish cities. They do not include flights or hotel
accommodation that may be needed before the train journey starts, or after
it ends. In June 2012
Geoff's Trains offers an El Transcantabrico  tour
that includes flights from Britain and two hotel nights. The tour is
accompanied by a tour manager throughout. The flights on this  inclusive
tour are arranged by PTG Tours.
