When you drive on holiday, you don’t usually start to relax until you get there. Children very soon get bored and irritable. On long trips, they can’t move or play as they would like. Ensuring they have plenty to drink and can get out to play or go to the toilet at regular intervals needs to be meticulously planned. Endless car journeys are not the thing for kids, in some cases even necessitating an overnight stop.

No such drawbacks when travelling with DB Autozug: kids can move about, there are no stopovers – fun and games know no bounds with DB Autozug. Overnight, the whole family is transported in one go to its holiday destination and, instead of spending a day on the motorway, actually gains a valuable day for joint family activities.

As much luggage as you wish

Probably the biggest benefit over air travel is the virtually limitless luggage allowance – no 20 kilogram ceiling, no restrictions regarding the carriage of toys, baby food or clothing. Your own vehicle can be packed to the rafters with suitcases, various toys, running wheels or buggies. No need to leave those favourite toys or teddies at home for fear of exceeding the luggage limit.

Off we go

So off we now go with the whole of the family and a fully laden car to the DB Autozug terminal. Only essentials for the night are taken from the car to the train. Armed with such hand luggage, the family then occupies the cabin it has booked. There the kids can romp and play to their hearts’ content. As, indeed, can mum and dad!

In between times you may care to visit the train restaurant for an evening meal. Here, there are plenty of tasty dishes for young and old alike to choose between. Baby food you bring with you can be heated up by staff in a bain-marie or microwave on most services.

Then it’s on with the pyjamas and time to brush teeth. Travelling overnight reduces a long and tedious journey by car. Safety rails make sure that your children don’t fall out of bed during the journey. Your coach attendant will be glad to oblige. All your kids need now is a bedtime story and they can start dreaming their way to their “holiday” adventure.
