This wonderful luxury sleeper train experience between two of Europe's most beautiful cities aboard the world-famous Venice Simplon-Orient-Express will take you on an adventure of a lifetime. Spend two days onboard this legendary train as you are treated to the very finest in luxury train travel. Think freshly prepared cuisine served fresh onboard, private cabins with steward service, a bar car with a live pianist and beautifully restored 1920s carriages.
A journey onboard the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Be taken back to the Golden Age of Travel when opulence and luxury was never too much, with 17 unique carriages featuring fine fabrics, ornate wood panelling and beautifully polished brass. With three restaurant cars and a bar car plus a choice of cabins, it’s easy to see why this is one of the most luxurious trains in the world.
As you depart one beautiful city, you head to the next. Board the VSOE in Vienna for a night of luxury and glamour as we head towards Paris. A four-course dinner is the main event of the evening with time spent in the bar car after as the resident pianist sets the mood. You awake the next day to stunning views as we arrive in Paris for your own time at leisure.
Please note that there are two routes from Vienna to Paris, one route is via Prague and the other is Via Budapest.
Day 1 Venice
Watch as the glorious Venice Simplon-Orient-Express pulls into Vienna station, the perfect opportunity for a photo. The stewards will then welcome you aboard and show you to your cabin where you have time to settle in and explore this magnificent train. A splendid four-course dinner signifies the first meal of your voyage, served in one of the ornate restaurant cars. After dinner, guests may wish to head to the bar car for a beverage and to listen to the resident pianist before retiring for the night.
Day 2 Vienna
A continental breakfast is served in the comfort of your own cabin before you arrive into Paris
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.
The prices for the cabin suites vary throughout the year so, if you are interested in booking a suite, please get in touch with us to request an accurate price.
