Save

A triangle of direct trains joins London, Paris and Brussels, so you can do three capitals in under a week without an airport. Big-city sights in London and Paris, then beer, chocolate and the Grand-Place in Brussels.

Why it works

All three legs are direct high-speed trains of about two hours or less, so the travelling is part of the pleasure and no day is lost in transit.
