Golden Eagle Grand Alpine Express
Fall for the romance of rail travel on this loop of Europe’s loveliest lakes and mountains, hopping between some of the continent’s most culturally diverse capitals.

This journey starts among the spires of Budapest and ends on the waterways of Venice, allowing you to revel in the Austrian Tyrol, Swiss Alps and Italian Lake District from the comfort of the Golden Eagle Danube Express train, whose en suite cabins are complete with power showers and king-sized beds. With a dedicated cabin attendant providing personal service 24/7 and a fine-dining restaurant car, accommodation has all the comfort and glamor of a Grande Dame hotel, that will whisk you all the way from Lake Zurich to Lake Bled.
