4-day winter Eastern & Oriental Express circuit through Singapore and Malaysia

Illustration of Malaisie Sauvage (Eastern and Oriental Express) - Version Hiver

Discovery Trains books this 4-day, 3-night winter departure of the Belmond Eastern & Oriental Express, a round trip from Singapore through Malaysia and back. Travelers board the train's green and cream carriages at Woodlands station on day one, with tea served in the cabin and a locally inspired dinner in the restaurant car. Day two passes rice paddies and rural villages before a stop at Alor Setar for a short boat excursion to the Pulau Payar marine park at Langkawi, with snorkeling and a beachside barbecue. Day three offers a choice of excursions on Penang island, from Peranakan cuisine to exploring Georgetown's old quarter by trishaw, before the train crosses back into Singapore on the final morning. Cabins are air-conditioned, with cherry wood paneling and Thai silks. This suits travelers who want a short, all-inclusive luxury rail circuit through Malaysia timed to the cooler winter months.
