One of the most well known luxury travel experiences is a trip on the Orient Express from London to Venice; for many travelers, this is still the trip of a lifetime. The train service has been operating since the late 19th century, and although the company name and route have changed several times, it still offers the ultimate in luxury train travel. The accommodations are all in beautifully restored or original train carriages dating from the 19th century, and of course the food and wine are of the highest quality. The train has been celebrated on film and in print, with such famous fictional characters as Hercule Poirot and James Bond among its passengers. A trip will cost from around $1500 and up, depending on which legs of the journey you take, the level of accommodations and time of year, although any trip will be memorable.
