Travelling on the Al Andalus train is like going back in time. Conceived from the start as an exponent of elegance and comfort, its magnificent lounge carriages and its comfortable suites take passengers back to the Golden Age of the foxtrot and sophistication of the Belle Époque. Not surprisingly, carriages belonging to the Al Ándalus train are the same series as those that were built in France at the beginning of the last century to take the members of the British monarchy between Calais and the Cote d’Azur. Step on board the Al Andalus and discover why this palace on wheels is considered the most spacious and luxurious tourist train in the world. Let yourself be carried away by the spell and tradition of Andalusia, on a seven-day trip that you will want to repeat.
