Day 1
The legendary Venice Simplon-Orient-Express luxury train awaits you in Amsterdam. Settle into your private cabin as the train disembarks and the landscape from your window starts to change. Then make your way to one of the restaurant cars for a glorious three-course lunch to start your journey, all prepared fresh onboard by the team of chefs. The afternoon is yours to relax or perhaps explore the train as you wish while delicious pastries with tea and coffee are served in your cabin. Later that evening, dress to impress as a lavish four-course dinner is served while classic tunes are played by the resident pianist in the background. Later, head to the bar car for a brandy or cocktail before retiring to your cabin for the night.
Day 2
Continental breakfast is served in your cabin the next day as the stunning Swiss scenery passes by your window. Enjoy a leisurely three-course lunch followed by a relaxed afternoon to converse with fellow guests or to browse the onboard boutique. Pastries are served in your cabin before we arrive at Venice Santa Lucia Station and your journey concludes.
Solo Travellers: Due to the upgrade of the Cabin Suites and Grand Suites, unfortunately, it is no longer possible to book a Single Cabin aboard the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express. Solo travellers are still able to book although they are expected to pay a "sole occupancy supplement", which in effect is like paying for two passengers. If you are looking to book as a solo traveller aboard the train, please get in touch with us first as we will not be able to accept your booking if you pay for just one ticket.
