Golden Eagle Danube Express: Balkan Explorer Venice – Istanbul
Arguably Europe’s least explored limb, the Balkan Peninsula is where mountain lakes and folkloric villages meet the vestiges of the Venetian and Ottoman empires.

This epic train journey starts in Venice and culminates in Istanbul, passing through the enigmatic capitals of six Balkan states from the comfort of an en suite cabin on the Golden Eagle Danube Express. The velvet-trimmed cabins come with a dedicated attendant and large picture windows for watching the world go by; its carriages offer all the comforts of a hotel, including fine-dining meals made with local delicacies and ingredients sourced en route.
