What makes a Great Railway Journey? Distance...scenery...the train itself...the people you meet on the way. Undoubtably it is all those things and more. Experience the spirit of the railway...
1. The Orient Express is Europe's most famous train. For almost a century this train was the means of transportation for the wealthy of this earth. A section of line with a stirring history, passes by beautiful towns and splendid landscapes. A 'killer' journey and not only because Agatha Christie once put Hercule Poirot to work here.2. The railway leads through one of Europe's oldest civilizations: Greece. 'Chosen by the gods', is how the Greeks like to present their land. Zeus, Apollo and Aphrodite lived there. Philosophers like Socrates, Plato and Aristotle worked here on their theories. Greece, the cradle of democracy. A journey by train, here is a journey through antiquity. - Aka:
