More than 150 years after the very first Orient Express began its journeys across Europe, a legend returns—more beautiful than ever. La Dolce Vita Orient Express is an ultra-stylish, luxurious sleeper train that invites travellers to experience Italy like never before.
Honouring the historic heritage of the Orient Express whilst redefining luxury rail travel for the modern era, this is the ultimate gift of Italian elegance, culture, and romance.

La Dolce Vita Orient Express is a luxury 1960s-inspired train which features a dining car serving Michelin-starred meals, a glamorous bar car for live entertainment and bespoke cocktails and private en-suite cabins. There are two types of accommodation available: The Deluxe Cabin and The Cabin Suite. The deluxe cabins are designed with cool colours, mirrored back walls, and wooden slat ceilings. At night, the sofa transforms into a double bed, while the ottomans can be used as coffee tables or stools. The space is crafted to feel inviting and adaptable. The suite cabins are designed as luxurious master bedrooms, complete with a sofa and a table accompanied by two armchairs, for social interaction while onboard. The furniture hues vary from inviting warm orange/terracotta to purple, accented with brass details.
Most routes depart from Rome and begin at La Dolce Vita’s own private lounge in Rome Ostiense station. The 1960s decor and ambient lighting make the lounge feel exclusive and like you’re stepping back in time.
La Dolce Vita Orient Express is a 12-carriage train that transports up to 62 guests around Italy on one, two and four-night journeys. Among the one-night journeys is the Rome, Portofino & Venice route, where guests are invited to indulge in fine food and drink, spectacular scenery, an insightful excursion in the vibrant town of Portofino, before arriving into Venice the following day. A popular 2-night itinerary is the Rome to Sicily route, a scenic journey to the shores of Sicily, visiting places like Taormina and Maratea along the way.
