Incredible Experiences

Excellence Class on The Glacier Express

Travel through the heart of the Swiss Alps in panoramic splendour aboard the Glacier Express. A highlight of any Switzerland train tour, Excellence Class includes a seven-course tasting menu, hand-selected Swiss wines and personal concierge service, all while gliding past snowy peaks and ancient alpine villages in unhurried luxury, all of which makes it one of the best train journeys in Europe.

The Maharajas' Express

Sink into silk-upholstered grandeur on a train that feels like a royal residence on one of the finest great railway journeys in the world. The Maharajas’ Express travels through Rajasthan with onboard fine dining, opulent suites and curated cultural stops, including private palace dinners, live performances and champagne breakfasts overlooking the Taj Mahal.

See Australia on The Ghan

Crossing from Darwin to Adelaide, The Ghan, the ultimate luxury train in Australia, offers immersive desert luxury. Disembark for an exclusive dinner under the open Outback sky - long tables, fine wine, grilled local produce and ancient stories shared by Indigenous guides beneath a sea of stars. The train waits quietly in the distance, your hotel on rails.

The Indian Pacific

The Indian Pacific Railway is one of the world's only truly transcontinental luxury train journeys. See the beauty of the Nullarbor Plain and the vast Australian outback, all while experiencing some of the best regionally inspired fine-dining and drinks.

The Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian

Aboard this private luxury train, you’ll cross thousands of miles between Europe and Asia in comfort worthy of the Tsars. Sip chilled vodka in the bar car, enjoy nightly piano music and dine on gourmet meals as snowy forests, remote villages and Lake Baikal slide past your window.

The Rocky Mountaineer

Winding through the Canadian Rockies, this daylight-only train offers front-row views of glacial lakes, wildlife and towering peaks. Recline in a glass-domed carriage while travelling the Canadian Rockies by train with gourmet meals delivered to your seat, storytelling hosts on hand and overnight stays in scenic lodges. It’s the slow, spectacular theatre of nature, as seen only from the rails.

Top Regions To Visit

Europe

From the snow-draped Alps to the sunlit fields of Tuscany, rail trips in Europe are steeped in elegance and nostalgia. Velvet seats, silver-service dining and panoramic windows recall a golden era of travel. Travel Europe by train and wind through mountain passes, coastal cliffs and storybook villages, all without ever leaving your seat. Alternatively, you can embark on a Great British railway journey through the Scottish Highlands.

Asia

Asia’s great rail routes offer deep immersion, not just in landscape, but in culture. Board a heritage carriage that winds past tea plantations in Sri Lanka, or dine aboard a luxury sleeper as temples, rice paddies and sacred rivers unfold outside. Whether crossing the Indian plains or the jungle-carved hills of Southeast Asia, these are journeys to be savoured.

Africa

This is where time slows down and every mile brings a new story. Africa’s luxury rail experiences glide through wildlife reserves, desertscapes and wine country, aboard beautifully restored trains with vintage charm. Expect multi-course meals, wood-panelled cabins and off-train moments like safari drives or star-lit dinners in the bush.

North America

From the Rockies on the Canadian Rocky Mountain train to red rock canyons, North America’s great railways are windows into vast cinematic landscapes. Recline in glass-dome observation cars, dine on regionally inspired menus and listen as hosts share tales of frontiers, glaciers and rail pioneers. It’s rail travel that feels both nostalgic and boldly wild.

Australasia

The tracks here stretch across deserts, coastlines, and alpine forests. We specialise in rail trips in Australia, from the iconic North-South crossing, to coastal routes. For a different perspective, a New Zealand train tour package offers a front-row seat to the Southern Alps and rugged coastlines, making rail trips in New Zealand some of the most scenic in the world.
