[introduction to each episode]

Michael Portillo : In 1840, one man transformed travel in Britain. His name was George Bradshaw, and his railway guides inspired the Victorians to take to the tracks. Stop by stop, he told them where to travel, what to see and where to stay. Now, a hundred and seventy years later, I'm making four long journeys across the length and breadth of the country to see what remains of Bradshaw's Britain.

Ride in luxury from Venice to Paris and enjoy exclusive events with the broadcaster and rail enthusiast

While there are plenty of unique experiences available, such as an icy expedition to Antarctica and a glamorous trip to Venice with James Martin , anyone in search of one-of-a-kind luxury will want to read all about our exclusive journey on the Venice-Simplon-Orient-Express with Michael Portillo.

On this very special Good Housekeeping tour , taking place in March 2025, you'll start by spending three nights in Venice , immersing yourself in Venetian life and discovering the delights of the city. You might choose to visit famous landmarks like St Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace or hidden gems , like the pretty Ponte de Chiodo or the island of San Michele.

You will be joined for parts of the once-in-a-lifetime adventure by journalist, presenter, and former politician Michael Portillo. Michael is passionate about rail travel , and has presented several documentaries for the BBC about train lines all around the world.

For his documentary series Great Continental Railway Journeys, he travelled on parts of the original Orient Express route. This will be his first time travelling on the train itself, and he'll mingle with guests over drinks and canapés, sharing anecdotes about his life and career and his insights on historic rail travel.

Discover Venetian life

With three days in Italy's City of Water, you will have plenty of time to discover all that Venice has to offer.

There will be two full days for you to explore the city at your own pace, wandering alongside its elegant canals and spotting famous landmarks like St Mark’s Basilica and Doge’s Palace as gondoliers bob by on the water.

Or perhaps you'll choose to immerse yourself more deeply into Venetian life by visiting a mask atelier or a gondola workshop. The choice is yours on this trip, with no set activities except for a very special event to look forward to on your third evening.

Later, join Michael and your fellow guests as you take a seat in the plush dining carriage. This is where you will sip on sommelier-selected wines before enjoying a four-course seasonal menu, freshly prepared by expert chefs as the train makes its way through Italy and France .

After dinner, you may choose to gather in Bar Car ‘3674’ for an evening of cocktails and conversation before retiring to your cabin for a night between crisp damask sheets and fine blankets.
