This luxurious train provides you with the perfect surroundings in which to relax and become immersed in the splendour of the ever-changing scenery in South East Asia.

The two night journey takes you north-east from Singapore crossing Malaysia over the straits of Johor, onwards to Kuala Lumpur. The following morning, enjoy a guided tour of Georgetown, capital of Penang, before moving onwards to Thailand. Prior to arriving in Bangkok, experience a tour on the River Kwai.

On-board, enjoy the views from the Observation Car and head to the bar for an aperitif before dinner. Relax to the sounds of the resident pianist before eating a sumptuous meal prepared by the on-board chefs. Retire to your private cabin, decorated in a style that hearkens back to a colonial era.

The luxury train provides a year round scheduled service through the diverse countryside of Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand, including the following journeys between Bangkok - Singapore, Bangkok - Vientiane, Chiang Mai - Bangkok - Singapore.
