Transfers From the polished wood interiors of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express to the white-gloved waiters of Queen Elizabeth, indulge in the timeless glamour of a bygone era, enhanced by a three-night Lake Garda retreat.
Stepping on board the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is like crossing into a new world, where brass details are illuminated by golden lighting and the soothing melodies of a grand piano are punctuated by the quiet clinking of crystal. Outside your window, Europe’s landscapes unfold. Snow-capped peaks cascade into storybook villages – a journey that has enchanted travellers for over a century.
Complementing your rail adventure, overnight stays in Mestre and Florence, together with a luxury Mediterranean voyage, offer a relaxed and refined introduction to the region. Explore Dubrovnik’s culture, unveil Cephalonia’s natural beauty, and experience the picturesque landscapes that line the Messina Strait. Seamlessly connecting each chapter, three nights in Lake Garda invite relaxation amid awe-inspiring Alpine scenery.
Enjoy Cunard Queen Elizabeth’s spectacular heritage, sense of occasion and huge array of activities, including ballroom-dancing, lawn bowls and Afternoon Tea in the Queens Room.
When Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II conducted the naming ceremony in her own honour in October 2010, she continued a marvellously regal formal cruising tradition. Cunard has maintained all the refined styling, amenities and service associated with the Golden Era of cruise sailing and added modern facilities, leisure, and entertainment opportunities.
Stunning accommodation and the most exceptional fine dining you’ll ever experience at sea are highlights of the glorious Cunard Queen Elizabeth cruise ship. You could dance the night away in the Queens Room at a themed ball, enjoy Afternoon Tea served by white-gloved waiters, or watch a polished production in the Royal Court Theatre. You’ll have three main gourmet restaurants to choose from, promising gastronomic delights to suit all tastes. And with spacious accommodation and two lovely pool areas, along with the Mareel® Wellness & Beauty sanctuary, you’ll enjoy a comfortable and relaxing cruise.
From classic British and French in the Britannia and Grills restaurants to the best steak onboard at The Verandah, plus a range of international cuisines at The Lido, there’s something to suit every taste.

From exquisite fine dining to sophisticated lounges and unparallel service, spend your days on board doing as much or as little as you like.
Travel between a collection of magnificent cities on board the classic carriages, which will transport you back to the Golden Age of travel with their gleaming French-polished cherry wood marquetry, opulently embroidered upholstery, and vintage fittings.
Every part of your journey is designed to help you capture a little of the magic of a bygone era, whether that’s the gentle clinking of solid crystal glassware in the bar car, or the traditional hospitality of your besuited steward. Travelling on board the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is a once-in-a-lifetime experience for many, and one which more than lives up to its reputation.
The Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is a moving masterpiece, made up of meticulously restored sleeping cars from the 1920s and 1930s. Stepping on board is like entering a world of classic elegance and vintage glamour. The train features three magnificent dining cars, where guests gather to enjoy exquisite, multi-course meals prepared by expert chefs using the finest seasonal ingredients. These dining cars – each with its own unique Art Deco style – are considered the heart of the train, combining sophisticated ambiance with exceptional culinary experiences.
Equally iconic is the vibrant 3674 Bar Car, a guest favourite adorned with striking blue zebra print and gold detailing. Here, passengers sip handcrafted cocktails while listening to live music from the elegant baby grand piano, played each evening before and after dinner. The train also features a charming on-board boutique offering exclusive keepsakes.
The cuisine on board the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is nothing short of extraordinary – a true celebration of taste, artistry, and tradition. It’s hard to believe such exquisite dishes are crafted in the compact kitchens of a moving locomotive. Each plate is presented with meticulous attention to detail, showcasing a harmony of colour, texture, and flavour that rivals the finest restaurants in the world. At the helm is celebrated Michelin star chef Jean Imbert, who brings a fresh, modern touch to the train’s storied culinary heritage. Drawing inspiration from the destinations along the route, he uses only the freshest seasonal ingredients to create moments of pure gastronomic delight.
Guests are invited to choose from one of two sittings for each meal, ensuring an intimate and unhurried dining experience. Every course is perfectly complemented by a thoughtfully selected wine pairing, enhancing the journey through both landscape and palate. In the afternoon, a luxurious afternoon tea is served – complete with delicate pastries, finger sandwiches, and fine teas.
While the carriages of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express have evolved over the decades, the exquisite service remains a hallmark of the experience. Every journey is tailored to the individual, with each guest receiving impeccable, personalised attention from the moment they step onboard. Finely attired in their iconic blue-and-gold livery, the stewards are always on hand to anticipate and fulfil your every need, whether it’s transforming your cabin from a stylish sitting area into a luxurious sleeping compartment, preparing a nightcap, or simply ensuring your comfort throughout the journey.
These dedicated professionals are specially selected for their poise, discretion and exceptional attention to detail. Many stewards have served on the train for decades, embodying a deep knowledge of its traditions and an innate understanding of true hospitality. Just a glance or gentle request is enough to summon attentive service delivered with charm and efficiency.
