A journey on a luxury train is a return to the art of travel. In stylish carriages and in small groups, the world unfolds at a leisurely, almost poetic pace. Landscapes pass by like paintings, stories come to life, cultures become tangible. On the most beautiful routes in Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia, the trains travel elegantly through changing scenery: across the Scottish Highlands, along Italian lakes, through the deserts of Namibia, or the jungles of Malaysia. Along the way, selected stops invite you to encounter people, places, and moments that will touch your heart. The legendary Venice Simplon-Orient-Express exudes timeless elegance and whisks its guests away to a world of mahogany, crystal, and champagne. The Royal Scotsman lets you experience the magic of the Highlands – accompanied by fine whisky and the sound of Scottish music. And the Eastern & Oriental Express tells the stories of Southeast Asia: between jungles, temples and colonial splendor. No matter which route you choose, on these trains, the journey is the destination. When will you buy your ticket for the most beautiful form of travel?
