Venice Simplon-Orient-Express

Step back in time for the journey of a lifetime

For a travel experience like no other, rekindle the romance of the rails on the elegant, gracious and legendary Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, A Belmond Train. A steward in blue and gold livery welcomes you and attends to your every comfort aboard this icon of the rails. 

Settle into your cabin, adorned with French-polished cherry wood, black lacquered panels, gleaming brass and Lalique glass inlays. Dining is divine.  The fine wines and cocktails of Bar Car 3674 are complemented by luxury linen, sparkling silverware and superb crystal, setting the scene for a gastronomic experience to remember where the seasonal favours of Europe are transformed into artisanal cuisine by the Executive Chef and his equipe. Dining onboard becomes a treasured memory.

As your truly unforgettable voyage unfurls, enjoy panoramic views of everchanging landscapes through Switzerland, Austria and Italy. 

London to Paris to Venice, via Verona

On overnight Paris to Venice Simplon-Orient-Express journeys, complimentary Eurostar tickets between London St Pancras and Paris Gare du Nord will be included for those guests wishing to start or end their journey in the UK. For those guests connecting the two journeys on the same day, a driver with signage will be waiting to transfer guests between Paris Gare du Nord, where Eurostar services from the UK arrive, and Paris Gare de L’Est , where Venice Simplon-Orient Express services depart.

A more elegant itinerary might include a night in Paris before your journey on this icon of the rails, allowing you to enjoy the many delights of the French capital and to avoid same-day connections. 

Our travel experts can arrange overnight accommodation in Paris. A transfer from your chosen hotel to Paris Gare de L’Est, the following day, will be included.  The Paris to Venice services generally run from early March to early December. The Paris to Venice service departs Paris Gare de L’Est at 17h00 and arrives into Venice Santa Lucia station at 16h30 one day later.
