A journey on wheels in pure Art Deco luxury.

Step aboard what is perhaps the most iconic train in the world and watch the world go by in pure Art Deco luxury. The Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, a Belmond train, travels through Europe, connecting cities such as Paris, Venice, Rome, Vienna, Prague, and Istanbul. From the moment you step into your vintage suite, you'll feel like you're in a Wes Anderson film, with mahogany paneling, silk fabrics, and champagne that never stops bubbling. You can enjoy gourmet dinners in one of the three elegant dining cars, sip a Cosmopolitan in the legendary Bar Car '3674' and doze off to the rhythm of the rails in the background. And that's not even mentioning L'Observatoire, a brand new suite designed by world-famous artist JR. Sleep, dine, dream—all on wheels, all in style.
