Take a nostalgic train ride in style and luxury across Europe
Before we took to the sky, we used to travel across continents in style and luxury through an efficient rail system. Belmond seeks to revive this with the launch of “The Party”, a new immersive 1920s journey from Venice to London aboard Belmond’s iconic Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, made up of 17 original 1920s carriages. Guests are invited to step into an extraordinary 48 hours of magic and drama, taking them back to the parties of the past and personifying the carriages’ legendary history. The journey starts on the captivating island of Giudecca, home to the Belmond Hotel Cipriani, before departing from Santa Lucia station and winding through Italy, Austria, Switzerland, and France.
Tickets are available from US$4800 per person. More details here.
