Here is the thing nobody tells you before your first luxury train: eating every single meal on board, however good, would get monotonous by Wednesday. The Costa Verde Express never lets that happen.

The dining car half

Breakfasts and a rotation of lunches and dinners are served at white-clothed tables rolling past the coast — northern menus, regional wines poured without ceremony or extra charge.

The shore half

The rest of the meals belong to the route itself: a cider house in Asturias where the pouring is theatre, a Galician table where the octopus arrived that morning. Every one of them is chosen by the operator and included in your fare — the full inclusions list is in what's included.

What to drink where

Txakoli in the Basque Country, sidra in Asturias, Albariño in Galicia — the region changes the glass every two days, and our northern drinks guide tells the story properly.

Allergies and preferences

Tell Palace Tours when you reserve and we lodge it with the operator's kitchen before you ever board — vegetarian, gluten-free, shellfish-free travellers all eat well on this train. It is one of those details that shows why booking through the authorized source matters. Still curious? The FAQ answers the rest.
