A Dutch entrepreneur has launched an overnight sleeper train operation throughout Europe, providing travelers with a unique hostel-on-wheels experience. The venture, called European Sleeper, aims to offer a sustainable and comfortable alternative to air travel.
The service currently operates between Amsterdam and Prague, with plans to expand to other destinations in the near future. The trains feature private cabins and shared sleeping compartments, as well as a lounge and dining car.
The founder of European Sleeper, Chris Engelsman, said the service was designed to bring back the romance of train travel and provide a more eco-friendly way to explore Europe. "We believe that train travel should be affordable, comfortable, and accessible to everyone," he said.
The sleeper train service has been well-received by travelers, with many praising the convenience and comfort of the experience. It also offers a more sustainable option for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint while traveling.
The European Sleeper service is part of a growing trend towards sustainable travel options, as more and more people become aware of the environmental impact of air travel. It is hoped that initiatives like this will encourage more people to explore Europe by train and reduce the reliance on air travel for long-distance journeys.
