How can you enjoy cotoletta alla Milanese, Bordeaux wine and flamenco all in one relaxing trip? Travel from Alpine landscapes to the French Riviera to the color and flash of Barcelona by train. Enjoy Mediterranean flavors while you soak up the view. Experience the countryside of Italy, France and Spain by day--or enjoy the luxury of the Elipsos Hotel Train by night. Either way, you'll arrive in Spain in style.
