A 5 star cruise in northern Spain
A 5 star cruise in northern Spain
EL Transcantábrico
Three decades ago saw the birth of what is today the oldest tourist train in Spain: El Transcantábrico. What was then a
gamble for a country that had never seen a train of these performance features and characteristics in operation is now an
internationally renowned and consolidated product. After successive changes and improvements over its now long history,
El Transcantábrico is today a true five-star hotel on rails, with features and amenities that meet the most demanding expectations. In its saloons and suites it perfectly combines the charm of trains reminiscent of the early 20th century with the
best comfort of the 21st century. Both in the train saloons and the distinguished restaurants on the tour, the gastronomy
is the responsibility of the most renowned kitchens and chefs of northern Spain, an area already ranked among the best in
Europe for the quality of its professionals and their raw materials. The pleasure of a superb cuisine is now a "trademark" of
all Renfe Tourist Train packages.
