Yes. This is not classic backpacking.
Yes. I will be bringing my backpack on this as my luggage.The Orient
Express...you have heard it many times. The romance, the mystery, the
adventure! Of course with the opulence too!
This trip brings back the romance and adventure of train travel, along
with the mystery of new cities and countries. Brought back in a
special way; adding value and removing inflated expense by replacing
it with service and contemporary refinement. The journey will mirror
the original Orient Express
Paris, Venice, Vienna, Prague, Budapest & Istanbul.
The trip starts in Paris for full two days. Also staying two full days
in Vienna, 1 3/4 days in Budapest, with full days in Venice, Prague,
and two full days in Istanbul. Included: guided tours in each city, at
least one meal a day, museum entrances, wine tasting and much more!
In addition, many other options and extras are included. We travel as
a group, and also have the flexibility of hop-on, hop-off tours and
museum passes with "skip the line" so you enjoy a complete
independence. You are free to do your own thing, cater to your special
interests, visit other sights and locations in the cities, while still
being guided and helped with all the arrangements. You can do it
independently, or you can join new friends traveling with you, and do
it together. The idea is come alone, meet new like-minded people and
make lifelong memories...without being stuck with the "one size fits
all" tour formula.

The Orient Express began in 1883. Original endpoints being Paris to
Istanbul. In Istanbul the Pera Palace Hotel, built in 1892 as the
accommodations at the terminus. It became synonymous with intrigue and
was a showcase of luxury with comfort at a time when traveling was
still rough and dangerous. The route changed many times and was
eventually shortened to Bucharest, and later to Budapest as the
endpoint. In 2009 service stopped and The real Orient Express is but a
memory.
