Relaxing On Board
The Bar Lounge Car
The plush seats and gorgeous wooden interiors make the bar car the perfect place to relax during your journey. Reminisce the day's adventures as you sip an expertly crafted cocktail or perhaps enjoy a pre-dinner game of cards.
During your journey, you can look forward to a range of exciting and educational activities in the Bar Lounge Car and Restaurant Cars. Expert guest speakers will give fascinating talks on the local history and culture and in the evenings, the resident pianist will serenade you with beautiful music on the baby grand piano in the Bar Lounge Car. And if don't feel like an early night, don't worry - the bar will stay open until the very last person leaves.
The Restaurant Car
Start your day off right with a delicious breakfast buffet served in the elegant restaurant car. Savour a variety of fresh fruits, cereals, cold plates, and freshly squeezed orange juice. If you're in the mood for something heartier, the onboard Chef can whip up a cooked-to-order breakfast just for you.
For lunch and dinner, the resident Guest Relations Manager will warmly welcome you to indulge in a delightful culinary journey influenced by the diverse countries you explore.
Some meals will be had in local restaurants but every meal enjoyed on board will be a relaxed affair with carefully chosen wine pairings. Bottled water, soft drinks and draught beer is also on offer
