Rail Europe was honoured yesterday with the 2025 Rail Tourism Award in Utrecht for “Swiss Bliss”, a campaign designed to highlight rail travel as one of the most engaging ways to discover lesser-known corners of Switzerland. The initiative encourages travellers to look beyond the classic highlights, explore places that sit off the beaten path and embrace a “travel like a local” mindset — especially during the quieter, off-season months.
The award is part of a programme developed by Eurail and the European Travel Commission (ETC), recognising creative approaches that bring together rail mobility, sustainable tourism and strong editorial storytelling.
