Reviews From Our Travelers
“We really appreciate how everything was laid out for us. We didn’t have to think. It was like a dream.” - John Peterson
"We really enjoyed it very much. It was a marvelous experience: the food and the wine -- and I love good wine -- the service -- it was a marvelous experience. The trip ticked all the boxes. We were absolutely delighted."
“Every year I think this will be my final trip. But the trips you offer are so glorious I can’t stop. You may have to have me committed somewhere to get me to stop.”
More
The train journey includes a private transfer to the train station, where you will be escorted to the fabulous private La Dolce Vita lounge. Your bags are whisked away to be stowed in your cabin on the train before you board.
We recommend the Orient Express La Minerva Hotel in Rome, the perfect match for the train, and just 10 minutes from the station. This stylish new hotel, the first in the Orient Express brand, is located in the heart of Rome on a quiet piazza but just steps from the Parthenon. Contact us for more information about our concierge service to make your arrangements and to secure your Virtuoso amenities for your VIP stay.
