Golden Eagle Luxury Trains has launched its 2024 and 2025 seasons, promising a cavalcade of all-inclusive, rail-bound extravaganzas tailor-made for the adventurous Australian spirit.
There’s a splendid array of train journeys, each more lavishly appointed than the last, offering passage through realms so rich in history and beauty, they’d turn even the most jaded of globe-trotters green with envy.
As April ushers in the 2024 season, Aussies are presented with a veritable smorgasbord of itineraries. Imagine careening from the storied Republics of the Silk Road to the gothic grandeur of Transylvania’s castles, or gliding across the Grand Alpine Express from Budapest to Venice.
As the Australian spring blooms, Europe unleashes its autumnal glory, beckoning with a 12-day odyssey from Venice to Istanbul, or a circuit through Hungary’s autumn colours that promises to drench your retinas in shades they never knew existed.
And just when you thought it couldn’t get any more enticing, Golden Eagle Luxury Trains tosses in a few more itineraries to whet your wanderlust – a Paris to Istanbul round trip that redefines epic, a 12-day delve into Eastern Europe’s hidden gems, and a yuletide romp through the Christmas markets of Central Europe that’s sure to leave you awash in festive cheer.
Tim Littler, the grand maestro of Golden Eagle Luxury Trains, extols the virtues of Australian wanderlust. “Australians,” he declares, “possess an insatiable urge to explore, and we’ve been only too delighted to cater to their globetrotting tendencies.
“Our latest offerings promise to ensnare the senses and sprinkle a little luxury onto those bucket-list dreams.”
The allure of boarding a train and unpacking just once, while the world’s majesty appears beyond your window, cannot be overstated. For the perpetually busy, those ensnared in the relentless tangle of daily commitments, this is your escape hatch – a chance to decelerate and immerse yourself in the grandeur of travel as it was meant to be experienced.
And lest you worry about the minutiae, fret not. Golden Eagle’s all-inclusive promise covers everything from your plush, private ensuite cabin to a bounty of culinary delights, an open bar, the attentiveness of a personal cabin attendant, a coterie of guided excursions that promise to astonish, and even the reassuring presence of a UK-based doctor.
In short, they’ve thought of everything. All you need to do is show up and let the adventure sweep you away.
