Rail Plus has released their 2016 Great Train Journeys program and the highlights include the first luxury rail voyage through Ireland and a selection of excursions through Persia.
This year, European train icons such as the Venice Simplon-Orient Express, Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian and Spain’s El Transcantabrico are joined by the Belmond Grand Hibernian in Ireland
The Belmond Grand Hibernian offers a range of itineraries through Ireland, including two, four and six-day options. Along the way, passengers will experience Ireland’s unique culture, with tours of whiskey distilleries, the Blarney Stone, ancient castles and Galway’s music-filled pubs.
There are three journeys that explore Persia, all operated by the opulent Golden Eagle Danube Express.
Travel agents can now order the 2016 Great Train Journeys brochure through TIFS or download a copy from railplus.com.au
