A train journey can give your group or incentive trip, or event, a different dimension; due to the space and freedom of movement, various activities from the day's programme can already begin en route to the destination.<\/p>\n<p>The high-speed trains Eurostar and ICE offer good and comfortable transport to various destinations in Europe. Consider cities such as Brussels, Paris, London, Berlin, or Cologne; these cities are reachable within a few hours from the Netherlands via direct connections. In addition, there are many other train connections outside Europe. At goMICE, we work closely with renowned railway companies worldwide, such as Amtrak in the USA or the Shinkansen \u2018Bullet train\u2019 in Japan.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Advantages of a group train journey<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>The fares for a train journey are often more advantageous than the same journey by plane.<\/li>\n<li>To depart from (often the centre of) the city.<\/li>\n<li>Short check-in times and boarding shortly before departure.<\/li>\n<li>Ample luggage capacity.<\/li>\n<li>Comfortable: plenty of legroom, Wi-Fi, power sockets and charging points in all compartments.<\/li>\n<li>On-board service, \u2018\u00e1 la carte service\u2019 on request.<\/li>\n<li>Within a few hours, you will arrive in the heart of the city.
