If you've ever wanted to visit a place that few people even know exists
(and fewer still can point out on a map), then come with us to Slovenia;
it won't be long before this smart central European country is setting
the tone for fashionable travel. With fewer than two million
inhabitants, and only recently discovered by a select group of
globe-trotters who've tuned into tales of its idyllic beauty, Slovenia
is considerably more tranquil and sophisticated than any other
destination cast under the "Eastern European" banner, with almost none
of the hang-ups associated with its former Communist connections; 15
years after gently wresting itself from Yugoslavia, there's a fresh
exuberance of spirit here suggesting a nation still enjoying its
independence honeymoon. Its beauty has drawn comparisons with
Switzerland.
Following on
from the huge success of our trip in 2009, our special charter train
will cover many of the best lines plus freight only lines and also lines
into Austria and Croatia. There really is something for everyone on this
one. For the normal passenger there is terrific scenery, interesting towns,
historical sights and good hotels. For the enthusiast there is
locomotive haulage, noisy diesels, freight only lines and depot visits.
Prices are based on a shared
(twin/double) room. For a single room a
supplement is payable.
