Complete Portugal by Train
Portugal is one of the best seafood destinations on the planet, but the defining feature of Portuguese culinary culture is surely its sweet tooth. The towns and cities of this country are lined with incredible patisserie shop-windows stacked with dozens upon dozens of delicately designed pastries and cakes. The nation’s most famous export, the pastel de nata, is sure to feature on a daily basis on any foodie’s trip to Portugal, and you’ll get to sample some of the finest in the country on a Lisbon delicacies tour, which also includes cod fritters and Ginginha berry liqueur. An underrated sweet treat is the ovos moles from Aveiro, a sugary egg concoction wrapped in wafers and sold all over the pretty lagoon city, which you’ll also visit on this eight-day Rail Trip. Wine connoisseurs will also be in their element, both in the Port wine cellars of Porto and at a local winery in the heart of the Douro Valley.

Coastal Croatia
Being a country that’s pretty much all coast, you can imagine that the seafood scene is pretty spectacular in Croatia. On this eight-day tour you’ll be treated to dinners in two of the country’s finest foodie cities – Split and Dubrovnik. The culinary highlight, however, comes in the lesser-known town of Ston, not far from Dubrovnik. This region is one of the best places on Earth to try oysters, with traces of oyster farming in the region dating all the way back to Roman times. The bay of Mali Ston’s unique combination of freshwater and seawater is perfect for developing the fresh, salty oysters that you’ll be slurping down on day seven of our trip.
