Greece Trains

You have to agree - it's hard to imagine a more impressive way to travel sun-kissed Greece than a high-speed train. Just sitting in a spacious air-conditioned train car, admiring the stunning view over the Parnassus mountain seems like a good enough reason to opt for taking a train. But we can offer a few more pros of a train ride in Greece to help you make up your mind. The trains offer the best value for money, as they boast fast travel times and provide much more comfort during the journey than even the most comfortable bus can hope for. Although the railway system in Greece doesn't allow to travel the country far and wide, as its coverage is a bit limited, train lines still serve most of the mainland and connect such popular destinations as Athens, Thessaloniki, Patra, and Florina. What is more, there a few thematical train options for those who seek a unique experience, such as a Steam Train of Pelion and a cog train from Diakofto to Kalavryta. International railway services are also available in Greece, including connections to Serbia, Bulgaria, and Romania.
