We are often asked ‘can I ride the Orient Express?’ and the answer is quite complex. The short answer is no simply because there is no ‘original’ variation of the Orient Express as famed in novels and films. Throughout its lifetime the Orient Express carriages changed and so the reality is there was never one particular train. Read our blog to find out more.
The Orient Express was also the name of the luxury train services that ran across Europe. In fact there were three trains with Orient Express in the name. As the service ran on and off for over 100 years, the carriages changed along with the routes.
Therefore we must make it clear that the journeys we offer are onboard trains of a similar style and from the same era and not the original train, simply because it is not possible.
One can ride a luxury train across the UK for as little as £210 per person! For this you would be enjoying a four hour scenic round-trip onboard a 1930s luxury train while enjoying a classic afternoon tea. Included in a journey such as this would be:
There are a wide selection of cheap luxury train journeys, in fact a large majority of our journeys cost £400 per person or less! Compared with sleeper journeys where prices can be in the thousands of pounds per person, we are proud to offer luxury train day trips deals in the UK that are some of the most affordable in the world.
The most affordable luxury train tickets are for UK day trips. All of our luxury train journey UK day trips are round-trips and return the same day back to your original departure point. All of our day trips include everything you could possibly need for an enjoyable day out in luxury, the only extras not included being additional drinks you may with to order from the onboard bar.
UK luxury train day trips tend to fall into two categories:
These are journeys without an excursion and passengers remaining on the train throughout the duration of the trip. These journeys focus on the fine cuisine prepared fresh onboard by chefs in the kitchen car while the train takes a scenic route.
The route of these journeys does vary, but generally the train will always take a leisurely route across the British countryside. The route of these journeys is not confirmed until two weeks before departure as National Rail do dictate where the trains can go. That said, expect to see glorious views of the British countryside rather than busy commuter routes through cities.
Dining journeys range from Afternoon Teas and lunches to formal dinners. On occasion celebrity chefs may also make an appearance and host the event themselves. We are particular pleased to offer journeys hosted by Raymond Blanc as well as Michel Roux Jr.
Journeys with excursions are made up of an outward journey to the point of interest, leisure time at the point of interest and a return journey. Like the dining journeys, everything is included as a package with day trip excursions apart from additional drinks at the bar.
Excursions can cost a little more than dining journeys as more is included as standard. Excursions tend to last all day where as dining journeys last around four hours. These types of journeys also include a brunch on the outward journey as well as a dinner on the return meaning two meals are included instead of one.
The destinations our luxury train journeys head to vary but include visits to historic cities and towns of interest, stately homes and even flower shows. Some of our most popular day trips visit places such as Blenheim Palace and Chatsworth House and often frequent flower shows such as the Chelsea Flower Show and Hampton Court Flower Show.
LuxuryTrainTickets.com is proud to offer two of the most luxurious trains in the UK for day trips. For those looking for luxury train day trips from London, we have a glorious 1920s train that departs exclusively from Victoria and has been beautifully restored.
