Itinerary

Day 1-2

Venice, Italy

Begin your journey back through time at London Victoria station, where you'll board the elegant Belmond British Pullman train and start your trip in style with a delicious brunch, complete with a Bellini. Sit back and relax as the beautiful English countryside passes outside your window.

After crossing the Channel, it's time to board the iconic Venice Simplon-Orient-Express. Admire the original 1920s features and soak up the incredible atmosphere as you make yourself comfortable in your beautifully appointed cabin. By day it is set up as a lounge with sofa, footstool and table, while in the evening it is transformed into a bedroom with upper and lower beds and a small washbasin. Dining on board the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is a truly unique experience. Dressed in your finest attire, you can choose to dine in the Côte d'Azur, Etoile du Nord or L'Oriental restaurant cars, before enjoying a night cap with your fellow passengers and the resident pianist in the Bar Car '3674' or the Champagne Bar. In the morning, you'll awaken to superb Alpine views, which you can admire as you enjoy a delicious breakfast in your cabin. Spend your morning relaxing and taking in the incredible vistas before a mouth-watering three-course lunch in one of the restaurant cars followed by afternoon tea in the comfort of your cabin. Finally, the journey comes to an end at Venice Santa Lucia Station, where you'll be taken by private water taxi to the sublime Belmond Hotel Cipriani. Accommodation: Venice Simplon-Orient-Express ( 1 night )

Day 2-4

Venice

An iconic property in the city, Belmond Hotel Cipriani boasts a fantastic location on the water's edge of Giudecca island, just moments across the lagoon from the famous St Mark's Square. Belmond Hotel Cipriani offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of Venice, with lush private gardens and a large Olympic-sized outdoor pool. The city itself is a charming maze of canals and winding streets, where incredible architecture and breath-taking sights lie around every corner.

Home to three fabulous restaurants, Belmond Hotel Cipriani is well-known by locals and visitors alike for its fantastic cuisine. Oro Restaurant boasts a Michelin star and a unique menu of creative, contemporary dishes. Cip's Club, on the lagoon, offers a host of Venetian classics alongside its extensive wine list, while Gabbiano Bar is the perfect place to unwind with a digestif or a cocktail as the sun sets across the lagoon. Venture into the city and explore the stunning interior of the iconic Doge's Palace with your private guide, learning about the history of the palace and the Venetian Republic. Admire the incredible architecture before heading behind the scenes to the 16th century prison, where you'll find the torture chamber and the jail cells from which Casanova famously escaped. Accommodation: Belmond Hotel Cipriani ( 2 nights )
