The Eastern & Oriental Express is steeped in romance. Its distinctive green and gold carriages are a familiar sight among the paddy fields and temples, bustling cities and wild jungles. Inside it is a haven of comfort, style and luxury. The air-conditioned carriages are the perfect vantage point from which to survey the world outside. The cabins are cool and spacious, and beautifully designed in high colonial style with rich inlaid woods, antique brass fittings, crisp white sheets and every comfort and convenience.

The service is everything that you would expect, and more. A steward is constantly at hand, to make sure that nothing impedes your enjoyment of the on-board experience. The atmosphere is refined, discreet and utterly civilised, yet also natural and friendly.

As an alternative to your cabin, the open-decked Observation Carriage is a great place to join other guests or to relax alone. In the evening enjoy a leisurely cocktail in the Bar Car, before progressing to the opulent Dining Cars where the finest Eurasian cuisine is served, and carefully chosen wine lists awaits your attention.

Your journey should be effortless, your energies conserved for nothing but enjoyment.

Each morning a breakfast of freshly-baked croissants, coffee, tea, juice and fruit is delivered to your cabin. After a leisurely shower you may wish to relax or join other guests in our open-sided Observation Carriage.

Lunch is a leisurely affair while afternoon tea is in true colonial style, with aromatic Earl Grey tea and cakes recalling the simple pleasures of a gracious era.

Then on to dinner in the opulent dining car where sparkling crystal, subdued lighting and French silverware set the scene for delicious Eurasian cuisine finely balanced by our expertly chosen wine list. Finally a cognac in the Bar Car perhaps, while the piano plays softly.
