"I travel not to go anywhere, but to go," Robert Louis Stevenson once wrote. "The great affair is to move." There is no more romantic way to move today than by train. Ride in classic luxury on rail cars outfitted for a new generation of travelers. Whether you choose to explore the medieval hamlets of Spain's northern coast or make the breathtaking trans-Siberian journey from Beijing to Moscow, a journey by rail is unforgettable.

Trace an eastward route along the rugged Cantabrian coastline aboard the luxury Transcantábrico with its refurbished vintage Pullman cars.
.
Spain's Northern Coast by Private RailThe journey begins in Santiago de Compostela, the capital of Galicia and the ending point of the historic Way of St. James pilgrimage route. You’ll spend seven nights aboard the narrow-gauge luxury train, which travels by day to take advantage of the stunning scenery. You’ll stop at medieval hamlets and seaside ports boasting a variety of architectural styles, from the pre-Romanesque gems of Oviedo to Bilbao’s ultramodern Guggenheim Museum. The journey ends in León, where you’ll sleep in a 12th-century-monastery-turned-luxury-inn.

Trans-Siberian Rail Journey: Beijing to Moscow
The starting and ending points are two storied world capitals: Beijing and Moscow. In between lie vast expanses of Mongolian desert and Siberian taiga. You’ll pass through places with storied names: the Gobi, Ulaanbaatar, Lake Baikal, and the Volga. In Beijing, you’ll visit the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square as well as the ancient hutong neighborhoods by pedicab.
