There’s travelling in style, and then there’s the Orient Express. As one of the world’s most iconic railway companies, the operator certainly knows a thing or two about luxury travel. Its La Dolce Vita services were launched this time last year, and the brand also hosted a glimmering New Year's Eve trip for travellers keen to ring in 2026 in serious style. And now, excitingly, another brand-new itinerary has just been announced.
Enter The Grand Tour. It’s a five-day circular route that departs from Rome before stopping at four other glorious Italian destinations, and its inaugural journey will be trundling away from Ostiense Station on May 21. The train will leave the capital at 10.30am and head towards Venice, where it will arrive by early evening.
