“The demand for luxury rail from our customers continues to grow, and in response, we’ve created the ultimate bucket-list trip,” said Railbookers President & CEO Frank Marini.
“As we’ve seen a trend to combine itineraries to include multiple luxury trains, we’ve tailor-made this itinerary along with smaller, customizable itineraries featuring these iconic trains as a highlight of our industry-leading luxury rail collection. Best of all, once the train ride is through, Railbookers takes care of hotel, sightseeing, transfers and more at the destination for a complete one-call solution. We’re thrilled to give our travel advisors and guests an opportunity to see the world right outside their window in total luxury.”
In between train journeys, Railbookers’ guests will be treated to luxurious hotel accommodations in many of the world’s finest cities.
The trip begins in Vancouver and continues in European capitals like Budapest, Edinburgh, Florence, London, Paris, Rome, and Venice. Air connections will allow travellers to see Delhi, Mumbai and Istanbul in Asia, as well as Cape Town and Johannesburg, South Africa.

“Rovos Rail is thrilled to be partnering with Railbookers on a trip of a lifetime… as Phileas Fogg famously said, “Anything one man can imagine, other men can make real,” said Rohan Vos, Owner, Rovos Rail.
For travellers seeking a less extended luxury rail vacation, Railbookers offers all of the individual train journeys as part of their more than 6,000 available itineraries throughout the world. Find out more here.
