Gravy Train

Since you’re more of the blaze your own trail type (Lewis & Clark are distant relatives), you’re not likely to take a cruise or sign up for a tour. For the rare instance that you keep your explorer hat packed and want to relax a bit, then a Luxury Train Excursion out of Hotel Du Vin York ($1,700) will suit you nicely. Hop on board the Northern Belle express train for the best in fine dining and sight seeing. The first night you’re treated to an amazing dinner before you’re guided to your room for the night. The next day includes breakfast, brunch and a full four-course dinner. Between meals the train will stop for specific sights and landmarks that you can visit if you’re not too bloated from feasting all day.
