Venice Simplon-Orient-Express: worth knowing

  • The featured Venice to London route finishes with a Eurostar service between Paris and London, not the vintage Orient Express carriages.
  • Grand Suites and the newer Suites, available on departures from June 2023, cost more than the standard Historic Twin Cabin and are subject to availability.
  • The evidence does not give a trip duration, price, or current departure dates for this route; confirm these directly with Fred. Holidays before booking.
