Steel, Soul & Skyline Views

Experience the beating heart of America on a seamless rail journey through three remarkable cities — each with its own story, soundtrack, and skyline. Begin in Cleveland, where lakefront energy and the legends of rock music set the tempo for your holiday. Continue to Pittsburgh, a city of transformation where industrial heritage meets cutting-edge creativity and spectacular riverfront views. Then onward to Philadelphia, the birthplace of the United States, where world-changing history, artistic masterpieces, and delicious food culture await around every corner.

With comfortable rail travel linking each destination, you’ll enjoy a relaxed pace and more time to explore — whether you’re diving into music history at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, taking in soaring views from Mount Washington, or standing where the Declaration of Independence was signed. Included sightseeing passes make discovery easy, while vibrant neighbourhoods invite you to slow down and savour each city like a local.

A perfect blend of culture, history, and effortless travel — this is an American adventure that stays with you long after the journey ends.
