Reasoning about the issue of comfort on a long journey, one can come to the conclusion that this is just the case when there are so many people, so many opinions .Of course, most will vote for air travel - quickly and comfortably, polite flight attendants bring drinks .There are also cons - the journey is limited to the landing point of the aircraft .Alternative - own car .There is independence from any kind of paper-ticket red tape and standard tourist routes, you can see all the cities, you just have to turn off the road and park .However, for a driver, traveling from a vacation can turn into a job - spending a long time driving is not like everyone else's $ ±.

And then it's time to remember the good old railway transport. In fact - inexpensive, convenient, sleep and dine you can when you want, the richness of the choice of routes is limited to the whole continent! And how much romance in such a journey - the twins-rails escaping beyond the horizon and the forests, rivers and cities flashing outside the window

There are, of course, also inconveniences here - the richer the route, the more transplants, and even in a long journey you want a banal presence of the soul in the train car, and many people want to sleep after a few days of the journey, not under the clatter of wheels. That's why the specialists of the tourist firm "Labyrinth" improved the journey by train, and created a unique tour "Baltic Express", which will take place on Christmas holidays.

The "Baltic Express" tour is a train journey through the capitals of the Baltic states with the departure from Moscow. Transplant does not need to be done - the participants of the tour travel on the same train. The issue of comfort is not a problem, as tourists arrive in good places when they arrive in Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius.
