Your request for the compagny El Transcantabrico
As one travels through the lands of Castile & Leon and along the Cantabrian coast, it becomes obvious that cooking is to play a major role on the route of the Transcantabrico. Galicia, Asturias, Pais Vasco and Castile & Leon are, in the opinion of the great chefs and the most demanding gourmets, the regions where the finest cuisine is to be found in Spain. Their restaurants not only choose the best ingredients to be prepared by great professionals, but they are also ideal centres for tasting local specialities so expertly integrated into their menus along with international dishes. The train offers a complete buffet-style breakfast ranging from pastries to the famous Jamon Iberico, or savoury cured ham, served on board the train in the different lounge cars.
Travellers on the Transcantábrico enjoy a journey especially designed for rest and privacy, sleeping in comfort as the train stops at each station overnight. This means that your sleep is not disturbed by moving and jolting and offers those who enjoy nightlife an opportunity to go out and savour the atmosphere of each town. The train will be waiting for them at the station.
