Journey
The legendary Venice Simplon-Orient-Express train offers a travel experience like no other. The most famous luxury rail journey in the world is the finest, chicest and most opulent way of crossing the continent and links some of Europe’s most beguiling cities. With Paris as its hub, this unique train travels a wide range of exciting routes, no matter which one you choose, the experience on board will be one you never forget.

Historic carriages await to whisk you away from beautiful Paris to the canals of Venice. Step into a world of glamour as you embark just before dinner. Enjoy the gourmet food on offer as the French countryside takes shape and the lights of the city are left behind. Spend the evening at Bar Car 3674, socialising with other guests or in the comfort of your private cabin. As you awake, the mountainous landscape of Italy has come to the fore and, all too soon, the train slows as you arrive into Venice late afternoon.
