Railbookers’ new itinerary explores 5 cities over 13 days on 4 train routes

Railbookers has unveiled its newest itinerary, which features five iconic destinations aboard four of the world's most treasured and luxurious rail journeys.

The 13-day package, titled “The Venice Simplon-Orient Express from Paris to Venice and the Famous Trains of Switzerland,” allows travellers to explore Europe in luxury and style with accommodations, sightseeing and rail travel included in one easy-to-book package.

In addition to the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, the package includes top-class rail trips on the Bernina Express, Glacier Express and Golden Pass lines in Switzerland.

Railbookers notes that it is the top seller of Glacier Express independent travel (FIT) worldwide.

“This exclusive rail vacation is the first to include three of Europe’s most exclusive rail experiences – the new Prestige Class on the Golden Pass, the legendary Excellence Class onboard the Glacier Express, and the historic Venice Simplon-Orient-Express," said Director of Product Development Gareth Jones. "Together with the breath-taking scenery from the Bernina Express, it’s the best of the best when it comes to European rail experiences. For travellers, the logistics of planning even one or two of these journeys can be daunting, and we've made it easy to enjoy this unforgettable luxury rail trip."

Combining many of Railbookers’ most popular train rides along with top cities in Europe, the trip begins with two nights’ hotel and sightseeing in Paris before travelling back in time to epic luxury onboard the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express.

The overnight journey features the romance and glamour of a bygone area, with inclusive gourmet meals and luxurious appointments.

Arriving the following day in Venice, travellers spend three nights there with exclusive sightseeing activities before exploring the Swiss Alps via St Moritz, Zermatt and Montreux. The memorable journey concludes in Paris with one additional night’s stay at a top hotel.

Included in the package as well are private airport and rail station transfers to and from the Paris hotels, as well as private station-to-hotel boat transfers in Venice.

As with every Railbookers itinerary, the journey can be reversed as well as customized to create the traveller’s dream European holiday.
