I have just experienced my holiday of a lifetime with 'Great Rail Journeys' travelling by train all the way to Austria as a 1st class passenger.
My journey began with Eurostar to Brussels and on into Germany staying at Konnigswinter near Cologne for the first night. Next day the route followed the mighty Rhine via Mannheim , Stuttgart and Munich and onto our resort for 6 nights at Jenbach in the Innsbrook valley (Tyrol).
My case which had been sent on by a company called 'First Luggage' was waiting for me in my room at The Jenbacherhof Hotel and well worth every penny spent!
The holiday was a dream come true with an excellent tour manager, 20 congenial companions (including an ardent botanist) and sunny weather.
My best day was a ride on the steam train 'the Zillertalbahn' up a valley to the resort of Mayerhofen.
