All Aboard!
Petrabax now represents two of Spain's most famous historical trains. For seeing southern Spain in style, book a compartment on the Al Andalus Expreso. Your trip begins and ends in Seville, and visits Cordoba, Granada, Ronda and Jerez. Enjoy comfortable accommodations and gourmet cuisine with excellent Spanish wines. This is an "all inclusive" product, most meals and sightseeing included! If the northern Spanish coast appeals to you, try the El Transcantabrico, between Leon and Santiago de Compostela (or VV). Medieval pilgrims never had it so good! Enjoy luxurious accommodations and delicious northern Spanish cuisine as you explore this less visited yet beautiful part of Spain.
