Days 2, 3 & 4 - Budapest
Budapest is the perfect city destination, blending history, culture, gastronomy and a modern vibe with walkable sights and a magnificent riverfront. You won’t want to miss a tour of the city’s landmark parliament building, the historic hillside castle or the views from the Fisherman’s Bastion. We would recommend taking some time out in one of the city’s historic thermal spas. The Szechenyi Baths and Gellert Spa are the most famous, but there are plenty to choose from.
Day 5 - Depart Budapest Aboard The Venice Simplon-orient-express
Board the gleaming carriages of the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express at Budapest Nyugati station this morning and enjoy a welcome glass of sparkling wine before settling into your private cabin. A 3-course lunch is served in one of three ornately decorated dining cars before you arrive into Vienna. Guests joining here will also be welcomed with sparkling wine and lunch. Afternoon tea and pastries are served in your cabin as you watch the changing scenery pass by your window. In the evening, it’s time to dress to impress for your leisurely 4-course dinner, followed perhaps by a night cap in the inviting bar car before returning to your cabin for the night.
Day 6 - Aboard The Orient-express To London
Later in the morning, enjoy a sumptuous brunch in the restaurant cars as you travel on towards the English Channel. In Folkestone, the British Pullman is waiting to take you back to London. You will be served a traditional afternoon tea accompanied by a glass of English sparkling wine, before arriving into London Victoria station.
