Historic York - British Pullman

Explore one of the countries most fascinating and well-preserved medieval cities with the British Pullman luxury train

* PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS JOURNEY DEPARTS FROM LONDON KING'S CROSS AND RETURNS TO LONDON VICTORIA *

Hop on board this quintessentially British train for a captivating trip to York. Enjoy outstanding cuisine and friendly conversations in the elegant ambience of the Art Deco era. Once you arrive, immerse yourself in one of the best-preserved medieval cities in Britain.

Surrounded by ancient walls, York is steeped in history spanning the Roman, Viking, and medieval periods. As the county town of Yorkshire, it is home to the majestic York Minster, famous for its 15th-century stained glass windows. With its array of top-notch museums and the lively Shambles – a network of cobblestone streets lined with charming, leaning timber-framed buildings and unique independent shops – this city invites exploration on foot and promises a delightful experience.

A destination as remarkable as York calls for a stylish arrival on the British Pullman. Commence your journey at London King’s Cross Station and revel in the exquisite details of this vintage train, featuring authentic art deco interiors and the distinctive uniforms of the stewards. Unwind in a plush armchair at a beautifully set table with crisp white linen and bespoke glassware. Indulge in your first sip of a sparkling Bellini or opt for a delicious non-alcoholic alternative, signalling the start of your adventure.

Savour a leisurely brunch as you travel north through the lush landscapes of Lincolnshire and Yorkshire. Upon reaching York Station, you can choose between two options; Either take part in an intriguing guided walking tour of the city or head directly to the National Railway Museum to marvel at iconic engines like the 1938 Mallard steam locomotive or the pioneering InterCity 125 from 1975 – both are covered by your ticket. Alternatively, wander at your leisure through the city centre, exploring its historic streets, notable buildings, and cosy cafes as you please.

Remember to make your own way back to York Station in time for the train's departure, 10 minutes prior. Once back on board, unwind with a glass of chilled champagne before relishing a decadent five-course dinner paired with half a bottle of wine per person. Non-alcoholic options are also available. Conclude your journey with coffee before arriving at London Victoria.
