AUSTRALASIA’S premium global rail wholesaler, International Rail, has expanded its services now offering a selection of choice key bus routes to aid travellers in having a seamless journey.
Agents now have the opportunity to include premium bus routes to their clients’ itinerary for the occasions where buses may be a more direct or practical, said owner and director Jonathan Hume.
He adds, “At International Rail, we always recommend train travel as the best way to experience Europe—offering comfort, speed, and stunning scenery that buses simply can’t match. However, we also recognise that in some cases, buses are the more practical or direct option when train services are limited, indirect, or unavailable.
“That’s why we’ve carefully selected a handful of key bus routes where they provide a more convenient travel solution. Whether it’s reaching destinations without a direct rail connection, reducing travel time, or ensuring a seamless journey across borders, these handpicked bus services complement our extensive rail options.”
