Sister trains to the legendary Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, the British Pullman and Northern Belle captivate and enthral with a stylish collection of day excursions and experiences across the UK.

“Step on board and the real world evaporates behind you” is a sentiment often voiced by travellers on the British Pullman train. Together with its sister train, the Northern Belle, its magnificent period carriages enable guests to experience all the magic of the Orient-Express without leaving Britain.

Both trains offer day and weekend trips from London and other cities to spectacular UK destinations. To sit within these parlour cars is to travel in a work of art: the British Pullman consists of restored vintage carriages, while the Northern Belle features exquisite marquetry panels.

Fine dining is a highlight of every journey. Trips include a sumptuous 5 course dinner extravaganza, whilst you can also enjoy a delicious brunch on many of the sightseeing journeys. When visiting Britain's greatest cities, gardens, castles and sporting events aboard these luxury trains, the journey is as exciting as the destination. Just some of the journeys available:

• Musical Dinner aboard the Northern Belle from £190 pp
