10. The Venice-Simplon Orient Express
Hopefully murder won’t be afoot when you board the famous Orient Express. This train trip, which runs across the UK and Europe to destinations like Venice and Istanbul, is perhaps best known as the backdrop of the 1934 Agatha Christie novel Murder on the Orient Express.
Today the Venice-Simplon Orient Express is an Art Deco lover’s dream, with its lovingly restored and sumptuously decorated original carriages from the 1920s and 30s.
A one-night excursion from London to Venice will set you back around $3,400 USD, which includes steward service, several multi-course gourmet meals, and incredible views of the English, French, and Italian countryside.
