First Class Private Railcar Journey from Washington D.C. to SAVANNAH or CHARLESTO N
Thursday-Sunday, October 28-31, 2010
Join a weekend First Class voyage aboard the classic 1930s Pullman Dover Harbor railroad car to the charming coastal Deep South.
With this rail-only trip from D.C., you’ll choose your own tour destination—Charleston, South Carolina or Savannah, Georgia. Both cities offer a range of delights, including a full palette of history, cuisine, culture, and adventure.
Thursday October 28th
Washington Union Station Departure mid-morningon with Amtrak’s Palmetto

Gracious white-jacketed stewards will serve you lunch and dinner, along with plentiful snacks and your choice of refreshing, made-to-order cocktails.
While on board, you can enjoy the ever-changing scenery and relax in the comfortable lounge or on the open-air vestibule.
Neither destination requires a car to see many of the architectural and historic sites or to enjoy delicious regional restaurants. You can tour either compact, enchanting city on foot after taxiing to a downtown hotel.
Alternatively you can rent a car to visit outlying sites or the Atlantic beaches—with advance reservation, Hertz has a taxi arrangement to their nearby rental facilities.
