For the first time in its history, the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, A Belmond Train, will embark on a new journey connecting Paris and Portofino. 

The train will also add a second Paris to Istanbul return journey, in addition to its regular August itinerary. 

Its first alpine journey will head to the French Alps on 21 December 2023, and it will be repeated in December 2024. In addition, eight new suites are planned for the train in 2024. 

The Royal Scotsman, A Belmond Train, will also see the launch of two new Grand Suites in May, designed by Paris-based interior designer Tristan Auer. The new Grand Suite experience onboard Royal Scotsman will include one spa treatment per person in the Dior Spa.
