Alllll aboard! The idea of slow travel, taking in the sights, and really experiencing a place has taken off recently, and one of the best ways to do that is via train. Splurging for a more luxury experience when booking a train ticket is a solid way to treat yourself to an all-around amazing experience when travelling without the worry of navigating. Allow yourself to indulge in the cuisine, sights, and sounds while relaxing in your front row seat.
Where to go: Check Machu Picchu off your bucket list via Inca Rail and enjoy a meal, drinks, live music, and ridiculously epic views all from the comfort of the two designated train cars (one is an awesome lounge). Enjoy the scenic ride on the famous Flåm Railway in Norway, gawk at the Swiss mountain landscape and quaint alpine villages aboard the Glacier Express, and take in the stunning Australian Outback from the Ghan, a luxury train journey spanning four days from Adelaide to Darwin.
