The Captain's Choice Tour Eastern Europe on Private Train

Have you done the whistle stop bus tour of Western Europe?  Then you would have experienced the lengthy bus rides, punctuated by one night stops in hotels that are far from the centre of the action?

If you want to see the undiscovered side of Europe at leisure and in comfort then join The Captain’s Choice Tour of ‘Eastern Europe by Private Train’.

Relax to the rhythms of a privately chartered train as you visit each extraordinary destination from Moscow to Berlin.  Stay in centrally located five star hotels (4 star in Vilnius) for two or three nights.  Step out from your hotel in Moscow and walk across Red Square, explore Prague’s Old Town on foot, stroll to Budapest’s famous Vaci Street and live it up at the Ritz Carlton in Berlin.  At all cities you will be staying in luxury and in the centre of the action.
Tour Highlights

The Founder and Director of The Captain’s Choice Tour, Mr Phil Asker, says that “For decades travellers have toured the wonders of Europe but seldom gone beyond the former Iron Curtain.”  Mr Asker continues “The former Soviet block countries boast magnificent cities, palaces, castles, towns, villages, mountains and waterways – many rivalling the best in the west.”

Mr Asker, a self-confessed rail buff, maintains that “Rail travel is the best way to experience Europe.  You have the opportunity to sit back, relax and enjoy the countryside without having the stress, hassle and boredom of travelling on Motorways.”

Mr Asker remarks “Regular scheduled trains in Western Europe are of a high quality, whereas the regular trains in Eastern Europe often lack the comfort and cleanliness Australian travellers desire.”  Mr Asker claims “This is where our privately chartered, luxury train can add real value to a person’s experience.  In addition to the well maintained and spacious carriages we offer passengers a direct route from one city to their next destination.”


 
Passengers aboard The Captain’s Choice Tour enjoy the comforts of their own private, air-conditioned train.  Carriages and compartments are not filled to capacity and travel is restricted to the daytime, affording passengers majestic views from the comfort of their own seat.  Fine dining is provided on board, accompanied by good regional wines.

All inclusive prices start from AU$19,965 (plus flights from New Zealand).  This includes luxury accommodation; all meals including regional banquets and entertainment; wine and beer with all group dinners and with meals aboard the train; sightseeing tours with individual headsets for better comprehension and less “herding”; tipping, taxes and travel insurance plus personalised attention from Tour Escort Team including accompanying doctor.

Plus Book by 27 January 2012 and receive 2 FREE nights at the luxurious Ritz-Carlton Berlin.
