On some train tour itineraries, passengers stay onboard the train overnight. Long after watching the sun fall below the horizon through wide panoramic windows, passengers on these train trips settle into their own private sleeping staterooms, comfortable and elegantly outfitted. While they sleep they are carried to the tour's next stop.
Other train tours utilize the train only for upscale transportation between destinations. When each day's train travel ends, passengers disembark and stay in hand-picked hotels. Classic train vacations include: trans-continental train trips via the American Orient Express in the United States, train vacations through Mexico's Copper Canyon, Alpine train tours on the Glacier Express in Europe, luxurious train trips with the Royal Scotsman in Scotland, and train travel aboard the Great South Pacific Express in Australia.
Train tours are classified according to the quality of amenities and accommodations.
