Luxury rail journeys across Italy

Now open for departures in 2025, La Dolce Vita Orient Express is primed to bring a splash of luxury to Italy's most beautiful rail routes. Owned and run by the original Orient Express brand, the train will take in destinations across the country, including the likes of Rome, Portofino, Matera, Venice and Sicily.

A luxury rail experience inspired by creative Italy

This iteration of the Orient Express, however, will steer away from the 1920s Art Deco glamour of its famous namesake, instead taking design inspiration from the contemporary creativity of 1960s and 1970s Italy. Indeed, the across the train’s 12 Deluxe Cabins, 18 Suites, and signature Honour Suite, as well as a series of restaurants, lounges and bar cars, guests can expect a combination of traditional and modern stylings represented in bold colours and patterns paired with world-class craftsmanship and design.

And, from the new Executive Lounge at Rome’s Termini Station to every aspect of life on board, guests will be treated to exceptional levels of personalised service throughout.
