Explore the Greenest Spain aboard El Transcantábrico Luxury Tourist Trains
A unique and unforgettable experience is awaiting for you at ‘El Transcantabrico Luxury Tourist Trains’. A 7-nights all-inclusive trip along the Spanish Cantabric coast while staying in this palace on wheels and delighting yourself with first class service.
Once you step into the late 20s designed carrriages and the train initiates the route, you will be seduced by the majesty of the northern landscapes, the ancient culture of the enchanting towns, the expertised service and, of course, the delicious cuisine served at the fine restaurants onboard.
Passengers can choose between one of the two trains that are currently operating two different itineraries : El Transcantábrico Clasico that covers the route from Santiago de Compostela (Galicia) to Leon (Castile-Leon), or on El Transcantábrico Gran Lujo which starts the trip at Basque Country and finishes its route at Santiago de Compostela – the Galician town well-known as the culmination of the Way of Saint James pilgrims route. On the way, the multilingual guides will accompany you to the excursions, including visits to Leon and its cathedral, the ‘Peine de los Vientos’ sculpture in San Sebastián, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, the coastal city of Santander, the Altamira NeoCave in Santillana del Mar, Picos de Europa National Park in Asturias, pre-Romanesque monuments in Oviedo and the Cathedral of Santiago amongst others.
One of the best features of travelling aboard El Transcantabrico Luxury Tourist Trains is that the trip itself becomes into an enjoyable experience. From the à-la-carte or buffet breakfast served every morning to fine dining restaurant carriages or magical lounges in which you can enjoy a drink, join in different activities or share the experiences of the day with your fellow travelers.
Furthermore, the Deluxe suites available at El Transcantabrico Gran Lujo and the Gran Clase suites at El Transcantábrico Clásico are thoughtfully equipped for your comfort. These spacious rooms are decorated in wooden panels and include an ensuite bathroom equipped with hydro-sauna, turbo massage and steam shower.
Although the trains normally run from April to October, if you wish to travel at other times El Transcantábrico can design a trip especially for you, if you request it in advance. And if you want, you can take shorter trips (4 or 5 days) on board El Transcantábrico Clásico. Now is the moment to treat yourself to a trip on these luxury trains. You’ll share landscapes, flavours, monuments and sensations that you’ll remember forever. Surrender to the charms of this journey and discover places you’ve always dreamt of visiting.
