All Aboard
My wife and I enjoy traveling by train. Trains will generally travel through areas that you may not see by any other form of transportation, and without the stress of driving. We generally get a sleeper car for overnight travel, which normally includes some delicious meals from the dining car.
We've made a few trips on Amtrak's Sunset Limited between San Antonio to Los Angeles. We recently flew out to Burbank, where we caught Amtrak's Coast Starlight up the Pacific Coast to Seattle. Once we got to Seattle, we caught the Empire Builder to travel to Chicago mostly along the Canadian Border and through Glacier National Park.
We've also made a number of shorter trips on historic trains. There's the Austin Steam Train, the Skunk train out of Fort Bragg and the My Old Kentucky Dinner train out of Bardstown. For a much more modern train, we took a high speed train in France from Lourdes to Paris.
While we have found Amtrak's schedule to be a bit unpredictable, all of our trips have been full of adventure.

Thanks for the review!
First trip to Ireland!
I traveled aboard many times but never used a professional travel agent to help plan my trips. Daniel is professional, attentive and compassionate. He took the time to talk with me of my goals and hopes for my upcoming Ireland trip. I am not very familiar with Ireland and trusted Daniel full control of planning my trip, he did an amazing job planning my itinerary, where he had us get a rental car (excellent decision!) visited 5 cities. We , stayed at beautiful hotels such as castles, and booked us with historical tours and planned a surprise carriage ride on my birthday! I highly recommend Daniel and we will be ising him again for our next travels!! Thank you, Daniel!!
I enjoyed planning your trip, almost as much as you must have enjoyed the trip. Thanks for using me and for your review.
