All Aboard : The Italian Orient Express

For the past 140 years, Orient Express has been sublimating the Art of Travel with luxury trains.

The legendary Orient Express makes a grand return in 2025 with La Dolce Vita, a luxurious journey through Italy’s most enchanting landscapes. This revival, offers nine meticulously curated itineraries that traverse from the snow-capped Alps to the sun-kissed shores of Sicily.

The design of the train was created by Dimorestudio, a well-known architecture and interior design studio founded by Emiliano Salci and Britt Moran. Both designers were inspired by Italian craftsmanship and the elegance of Italy’s golden design era.

Inside, the train combines the charm of 1950s Italian style with modern elegance. Each suite highlights high-quality materials like soft fabrics, custom-made furniture, and large windows offering stunning views of Italy’s diverse landscapes.

Onboard, guests can enjoy gourmet meals prepared by Michelin-starred chefs. The culinary experience is led by the famous chef Heinz Beck, known around the world for his love of Italian cuisine. He has created a special menu inspired by the 14 Italian regions visited by the train. Highlights include a truffle-themed journey between Rome and Nizza Monferrato, and a tour through Tuscany’s vineyards with a stop in Montalcino.

La Dolce Vita is more than just a way to travel… it’s a full experience that celebrates the beauty of taking your time. It invites passengers to enjoy every moment of the journey, not just the destination.
