About Steam Train journeys

Roll down historic tracks in style with one of our steam train journeys.

While it is hard to believe, trains in the past were actually slower than they are today. Running on coal-fire engines through the countryside, they were a genteel method of transport. So if a relaxed train journey day out appeals, have a look at these very special experiences.

Steam train ride experiences are available across England, in the Midlands, Yorkshire, Bedfordshire and Kent. Although there are rides in the south east there are no steam train rides available in the capital, so if you're looking for days out in London you may have to consider something else.

To see London you may prefer a different form of transport. Leave the shackles of the train tracks and jump into something nautical on our river cruises, where you'll get a great view of both sides of the river. Other cities where such boat cruises are available include Oxford, Cliveden and even Paris, so there is a great choice of cruises for you.

If you're taking a day away to visit a steam train why not make a night of it? We have some great deals on hotels in our short breaks section, with hotel offers across the UK and beyond. If you'd like to see the very best of what we have to offer see what's popular on our top hotel breaks page.
