A journey on board the British Pullman feels like you’re being transported back to the golden age of 1920s travel. This iconic Belmond train showcases meticulously restored Pullman carriages, each finished with polished wood and elegant vintage detailing. You can find out more about the different carriages here.
The British Pullman offers a selection of round-trip day journeys through the British countryside, with itineraries available throughout the year. Guests can enjoy multi-course seasonal cuisine, accompanied by champagne and paired wines, while relaxing in carriages that once carried royalty and featured on the silver screen. Every element—antique upholstery, period lighting, attentive stewards and historically preserved craftsmanship—creates an experience unlike any other luxury train in the UK.
With a varied programme of journeys, there is a British Pullman trip for every occasion. Popular options include Historic Bath at Leisure, featuring brunch on the outbound journey, free time to explore Bath and a beautifully prepared dinner on the return to London. For something distinctive and theatrical, the immersive Moving Murder Mystery Lunch remains a firm favourite with couples, groups and celebrations.
