Welcome and Thank You!

What we do and what you get:
We show you the great layouts of Europe, professionally organized and guided from breakfast to dinner. Our tours are 3 tours in 1, culture and history, model trains and layouts and real trains.
Plus: Live steam in trains and ships, top automotive technology, European cuisine and lifestyle, and lots of pure fun!

Hotels and accommodations:
We do NOT bus you in the evening out into the boonies
to an inexpensive hotel to save money!
Your hotels are right downtown, surrounded by historic buildings, shopping areas or a little nightlife where you can go for a safe after-dinner walk on a major boulevard or have a night cap with your fellow travelers.
Please contact us for a detailed hotel list here:  http://www.modeltraintravel.com/contact-us.html
