Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday
To move slowly, to take in your surroundings, to worry less about the time it takes to get from A to B; these are pleasures in their own right, but in addition to simply savouring the joy of a leisurely pace, there are the environmental benefits of slow travel to shout about, too. With the increasing awareness of the impact of travel on the planet, we as a society are becoming ever more conscious of travelling with a conscience. This is where the quintessential mode of slow travel - the train - comes in. With tracks across the world connecting some seriously cool destinations via some seriously scenic routes - and all with a fraction of the carbon footprint of a flight - getting to where you're going has never been more elegant, or guilt-free.
When it comes to practising slow travel to a far flung destination, you could take the purist route and train, sail, cycle and walk your way around the world (which would make for a truly incredible sabbatical, if you ask us), or, more likely, take your flight (also guilt-free with our Carbon Off-setting programme), and we'll organise all sorts of incredible slow adventures once you arrive.
