Adventures By Train has unveiled a more flexible way to experience its flagship Around the World by Train in 100 Days itinerary, with six individual sections of the 2027 departure available to book independently.
The full 100-day journey (March 14 – June 22, 2027), which spans 14 countries across Europe, Asia and North America, will still depart from London with just 12 places available.
However, travellers can now opt to join a specific leg of the route, from crossing Europe by rail and travelling through Central Asia on sleeper trains to exploring China by high-speed rail or riding the California Zephyr across the USA.
The operator says the new sectional approach opens the experience to a broader range of travellers who may not have the time to commit to the full 100 days but still want to take part in one chapter of the journey.
