Italy

This aristocrat amongst trains takes its passengers to some of the most celebrated cities in Europe – Paris, Venice, Budapest, Prague, Berlin and Istanbul.

Travelling in its gloriously restored carriages revives the golden age of travel: a 24-hour cabin steward is on-hand throughout your journey, interiors gleam with polished wood and brass, ever-changing landscapes slip past your window and a formal black-tie dinner awaits in one of three dining cars. Cuisine is of the highest calibre, whilst the service is magnificent; breakfast and afternoon tea are served each morning in the comfort of your cabin. Following the success of the newly modelled Grand Suites, 'Paris', 'Venice' and 'Istanbul' - all of which are iconic locations visited by the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express - three additional Grand Suites complete with en-suite bathrooms, plush double beds and private seating areas are to be added to the train; named 'Budapest', 'Prague' and 'Vienna', all will take design inspiration from their namesake city.

A variety of exceptional itineraries are available – the classic route from London to Venice, journeys through rural French farmlands and Swiss alpine valleys, an adventure to the edge of Europe in Istanbul and the newest itinerary, a voyage to the vibrant cultural hub of Berlin.
