4-Day Nostalgic Train Journey on the Legendary Eastern & Oriental Express (2026/2027)

starting at 5.000 €

Today, the legendary Eastern & Oriental Express awaits you at Singapore's Woodlands Station. Your air-conditioned cabin offers an elegant ambience with cherry wood, Malaysian embroidery, and Thai silk. As you travel north from the suburbs of the metropolis through green jungle, your steward will serve you an exquisite afternoon tea in your cabin. Indulge in the finest Asian culinary delights during dinner in the on-board restaurant. (D)

In Taman Negara National Park, you'll go on an excursion into the lush rainforest. (FLA)

Today you’ll head over to the island of Penang. Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, and Christians—Georgetown is the country’s cultural melting pot and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are exciting excursions to choose from here. You can either embark on a culinary journey, buy spices and vegetables, and try your hand at Malaysian cuisine. Or you can visit spectacular temples, a contemporary art studio, and an opera and puppet theater in the picturesque old town. If you prefer a more personalized experience, explore Georgetown at your own pace with a map and a bicycle rickshaw. Your driver will take you wherever you’d like to go—from popular attractions to hidden gems. You’ll be back on the train in time for lunch and can enjoy a relaxing afternoon on board. The Farewell Dinner is a real highlight. If you’re still up shortly after midnight, you’ll catch a glimpse of the sea of lights in the metropolis of Kuala Lumpur. (FMA)

During breakfast—either in your cabin or in the dining car—you will pass beaches and jungles in the southernmost state of Johor. Soon after, your train will cross the strait to Singapore, where you will bid farewell to the Eastern & Oriental Express after your extraordinary train experience. (B)
