Where We Travel To
Japan
Japan's railway system stands as a testament to precision engineering and efficiency, making it a highlight of our Asia rail tours. The famous Shinkansen (bullet train) network connects major cities at speeds of up to 320 kilometres per hour, offering both comfort and punctuality that's envied worldwide.Â
Travelmarvel's premium Japan rail experiences include journeys on the Tokyo to Kyoto Shinkansen route, allowing you to witness the dramatic transition from ultramodern urban landscapes to traditional cultural centres in just over two hours. Our Japan tours incorporate several Shinkansen segments, maximising your time exploring rather than travelling between destinations.Â
China
China's remarkable high-speed rail network has revolutionised travel across this vast nation. Travelling at speeds of up to 350 kilometres per hour, these ultramodern trains connect major cities with efficiency and comfort that must be experienced to be believed. Our itineraries incorporate the Beijing to Shanghai high-speed route, allowing you to witness the striking contrast between China's ancient capital and its futuristic financial hub in just four and a half hours. Along the way, you'll glimpse rural villages, modern cities, and agricultural landscapes that tell the story of China's rapid transformation. For a more traditional rail experience, select Travelmarvel Asia train tours include a journey from the historic Xian to Chengdu, passing through the spectacular scenery.Â
India
Our premium Asia rail tours showcase the best of both heritage and modern Indian railways. Travel aboard the Vande Bharat Express from Agra to Ranthambore, one of India’s most advanced trains, combining contemporary comfort with a seamless journey through the changing landscapes of northern India. Sleek, efficient and designed for a new era of rail travel, it offers a striking contrast to the country’s historic rail legacy. For another perspective on India’s evolving rail network, journey on the Gatimaan Express between Delhi and Agra at speeds of up to 160 kilometres per hour.
