day trips and weekends on the british pullman - Orient-Express

Attention to detail is everything
THE ONBOARD EXPERIENCE
FROM THE MOMENT LIVERIED STEWARDS WELCOME
YOU TO YOUR IMMACULATELY APPOINTED CARRIAGE,
THE ADVENTURE BEGINS.
Stepping aboard the British Pullman or the Northern Belle is like
stepping back in time. For every detail, from regal carpets, woven brass
luggage racks <strong>and</strong> mahogany glass-panelled doors to silken lampshades
<strong>and</strong> velour tapestry armchairs, transports you back to a more gracious
age, when travel was an end in itself, not an undignified scramble.
Dining with the finest wines <strong>and</strong> British fare, in the care of your steward,
time passes unnoticed, the murmur of conversation lulling you to your
destination, unruffled <strong>and</strong> unhurried. Few journeys will take you out of
modern time quite so thoroughly <strong>and</strong> into another era: the feeling of
being unobtrusively, respectfully cosseted <strong>and</strong> indulged is hard to
imagine until you experience it.
