It was a relaxing journey. It was comfortable on the train as there were seats that offered enough legroom and comfort. The train arrived on schedule and I also arrived on time. The staff were very friendly and did a good job and were on hand to help with any questions or concerns. The service was also great, what I ordered arrived quickly, was fresh and tasty and not too expensive. All in all, it was a wonderful trip that I can only recommend.
