The Orient Express: A Golden Era of Travel

The celebrated Express rolls out of London headed east. In Paris there’s a night to remember at the birthplace of the can-can.

The Express heads for Munich via Germany's 'City of Gold' and stops at Salzburg for an unexpected musical tribute.

It's time for sweet treats and psychoanalysis as the Express pulls into Vienna. In Budapest, City of Spas, there's a high-speed rail line run entirely by kids.

The Express crosses the Balkans heading for Sofia, where there's a palace of exotic surprises and a reminder of Bulgaria's bloody history. Then finally Istanbul and journey's end.
