The 11 most luxurious train rides in the world

You’re in for iconic design, high-end service and absolute opulence on these dazzling journeys

Travelling by rail can be one of the most luxurious ways of getting around. And no, we aren’t just talking about the Orient Express (though that is, indeed, very fancy). The world is full of opulent, luxe rail routes – and they come in all shapes and sizes. Some are veritable palaces on wheels, whilst others offer dazzling views or fine dining, and they offer you the chance to see the world at a much more leisurely pace – no zooming past mountains here. 

But it’s not just the journey worth boarding for. So many routes are built around packages for travellers which often include plenty of day trips and stop-offs around every corner – kind of like a cruise. It isn’t just the train that’s fancy, it’s the entire trip, so get ready to be amazed, as here is our pick of the very best luxury train routes from across the world.

Canada ’s Rocky Mountaineer train understands this, hence the panoramic views, opening up the wonder of the route between Vancouver and Banff for all to enjoy. Sure, economy seats are available, but they don’t come with the views, so go all out and allow yourself this top-notch two-night experience. 

2.  The Deccan Odyssey

India knows exactly how to put together a luxury tourist train. A spin-off of the famed Palace on Wheels, the Deccan Odyssey offers six different routes, from the hidden splendour of Gujarat to the natural magic of Maharashtra, but you can’t really go wrong with any of them. It is mind-bendingly expensive (tickets start at $8,330 or £6,500), but who expects low prices to follow the word ‘luxury’? Fools, that’s who. You are basically travelling in a limousine on wheels across one of the world’s biggest countries, after all. 

3.  The Ghan

Australia is a land of iconic travel experiences, and a trip on The Ghan is right up there, a trundling train treat that coasts from Darwin to Adelaide . Keen geographers will realise that the train runs from the very northern tip of Australia to the bottom, making The Ghan a unique way to see the heart of this fantastic nation. There isn’t a whole lot in the centre of Australia (a lot of camels, by the way), but the overwhelming immensity of it all is incredible. The name is a shortened take on the route’s original moniker, The Afghan Express. 

4.  Venice Simplon-Orient-Express

When one thinks of luxurious trains, the Orient Express immediately forces its way into the discussion. How could it not? This iconic train has been immortalised in literature, cinema and everything else since it first set off in 1883, covering the distance between Paris and Istanbul (then Constantinople) in less than 76 hours. It was known as the world’s most luxurious train for a reason, all glass panels, refined leather seats and beds that offered the sort of sleep that, yes, travellers can only dream of. Seven historic cars have been renovated for the modern day, bringing the 1800s glamour into the twenty-first century.  

5.  Seven Stars in Kyushu

Japan ’s finest luxury train experience is undoubtedly the Seven Stars in Kyushu, a circular tour from Hakata that runs through Nagasaki and Yufuin over two days. A four-day option is also available, perfect for those who have money to spare and are looking for a seven-star (yes,  seven ) railway experience. Trains in Japan are a thing of wonder, but there is something about the Seven Stars that makes it stand out. It is a gorgeous celebration of Japanese art, from the walls to the cabins to washbasins. 

6.  The Eastern & Oriental Express

The world-famous Orient Express is somewhat incorrectly titled, seeing as it travels around Europe and Europe alone. But this route from Bangkok to Singapore ticks more boxes on the moniker front. It also runs through a stretch of scenery that will take your breath away, if that breath hasn’t already been snatched by the onboard decor and tremendous service. Ancient wonders and cosmopolitan cities collide (not literally) in a blur of exquisite glamour aboard this stunner. Tickets can stretch upwards of $3,200 (£2,700), but you very much pay for what you get. 

7.  Rovos Rail

Africa ’s premium train journey experience is undoubtedly the Rovos Rail, with a variety of trips available covering everything from 48-hour runs to 15-day explorative itineraries. These bespoke trains are a sight to behold, with gorgeous armchairs and all the wine one can handle waiting within. Throw in a stunning dining car, observation decks and a total absence of TV and radio, and you’ve got a nostalgic experience to remember.

8.  The Heritage Palace on Wheels

The Heritage Palace on Wheels (FKA The Palace on Wheels) has 14 luxurious cabins with all the mod cons, but it is the dining section on this beauty that really take the breath away. The food is spectacular in and of itself, but the decor and design make dining on the Heritage Palace on Wheels one of India ’s great romantic experiences. The famous name has since incorporated the Royal Rajasthan on Wheels into its stable, although the insecurity of the past few years has rendered the train’s future somewhat uncertain. Climb aboard while you still can.

9.  The Blue Train

Traversing the 1,600km or so between Pretoria and Cape Town by train is one of South Africa ’s most amazing travel experiences, so why not go all out and embrace the luxury of it all? One of the fanciest trains on the planet, The Blue Train styles itself as a window into the soul of Africa and we’re inclined to agree.  

10.  The Royal Scotsman

The UK ’s most famous train now exists as an opulent reminder of a very different time. The name remains in use as modern trains hurtle between Edinburgh and London , but those looking to climb aboard the iconic locomotive of yesteryear must dig deep into their pockets and dress to the nines as they do. Still, it is worth it, right? The Flying Scotsman is an exercise in British luxury, a time machine to the nineteenth century through the eyes of a very wealthy traveller indeed.  

11.  Belmond Andean Explorer

South America ’s first luxury sleeper train first set off in May 2017, bringing the romance of the rails to this most romantic of continents. The train runs from Cusco (the capital of the Incan Empire, no less) to the white city of Arequipa, showcasing the best of the Peruvian Andes along the way.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT US

Journey Mexico planned a wonderful anniversary trip for us. Zach and his team really know the best spots in Mexico. They were there with ideas and support throughout the trip. Fantastic and super responsive. Highly recommend.

Jessica S. G. October 2022

We worked with Journey Mexico on our recent trip to Merida. The trip was amazing and exceeded all expectations. Each day and activity was well planned. For a family of 5 (including 3 children) it’s often hard to find something for everyone. Everyone that we encountered was phenomenal, from our travel assistant Jesús, to our driver Sergio, to our tour guide Angel. They worked hard to make sure that our trip was all that we wanted it to be, and it was perfect! I highly recommend!

Ashley P. October 2022, Yucatan Peninsula

Wonderful, attentive and responsive Travel Agency based in Mexico. My wife and I booked a 10-day trip to Oaxaca, Mexico with Journey Mexico. They were very helpful and responsive during the planning stage. Followed up to make sure we were ready for the trip and assigned a travel assistant to assist during our trip. She was always just a text message away - 24/7. Very helpful. We had an issue come up during the trip and she immediately responded and did everything possible to solve the problem. Highly recommend this group - we will use them any time we are traveling in Mexico.

Steven C. October 2022, Oaxaca City & Puerto Escondido

Thanks for following up. We had a lovely time - most specifically the property was perfect for the weekend & the staff, Rodolfo & Chef Hector & team were absolute perfection. They were the perfect addition to making our stay so personal (and with the most amazing food & cocktails!). Our driver for our Tulum trip was also very kind & attentive. Thanks again for all the help and support from your side setting up the activities & managing our menu & grocery, and responding to our many questions!! The group is already looking forward to booking with Journey Mexico again.

Kristin M. Sept 2022, Alma Rosa Bachelorete

I just wanted to thank you for all you did to arrange our stay at Villa Mariola. Everything was ready for us when we arrived and the safety gates created the safe environment that we needed with 4 toddlers. The villa was comfortable and the staff was pleasant, hard working and accommodating. The chef’s Rafael and Alex are amazing, every meal that they created was like eating in an upscale New York restaurant. Thank you again, Debbie and the Tosi and Muser families

The Most Luxurious Train Rides in the World

Take a hint from the glamour of yore and indulge in slow-moving, on-the-ground transport with luxury train travel.

In the 1970s, American travel writer Paul Theroux set himself an impressive goal: to travel from England to Asia entirely by rail. He catalogued his experience in the book " The Great Railway Bazaar ," which is regarded as one of the most romantic pieces of writing about train travel.

"If a train is large and comfortable you don't even need a destination," Theroux wrote. "A corner seat is enough, and you can be one of those travelers who stay in motion, straddling the tracks, and never arrive or feel they ought to."

In an era when time is a luxury, take a hint from the glamour of yore and indulge in slow-moving, on-the-ground transport. Whether you're exploring the Andes or dashing through a Japanese island, luxury train travel proves that fly-by country is much more interesting when seen on the ground.

Take it slow on these luxurious train rides through some of the world's most glamorous destinations. Note that pricing and schedules are subject to change.

British Pullman, A Belmond Train, England

Fans of director Wes Anderson can embark on a vintage train adventure inspired by his distinct style and eye for detail. One of his most famous films, "The Darjeeling Limited," speaks to the director's love for luxurious train travel. On the British Pullman, A Belmond Train , guests can ride in the "Cygnus" carriage built in the 1950s, on exciting routes across England. With themed rides, including a murder mystery luncheon, or star guest-chef dinners, this ticket is sure to transport passengers back into the glamorous past.

Cruise Train Seven Stars, Japan

Often referred to as the world's most luxurious train, Japan's Cruise Train Seven Stars brings old-school luxury to a technologically advanced railway. It lays claim to being the country's first luxury sleeper, with its first run in 2013.

With multi-day tours around the island of Kyushu, riders onboard the Seven Stars will get up close to both mountains and the seaside. But fair warning — the train can only carry up to 28 passengers at a time. Demand is so high that prospective riders must apply to ride , and winners are then invited to purchase their place on an upcoming itinerary.

Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, Europe

The Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is mythical for a reason. The train's classic route runs from London to Venice, stopping in Paris and Verona on the way. Cars are adorned in Art Deco finery, creating an atmosphere of old-school glamour. Food is sourced along the route, meaning that when you sit down to dinner, there's likely to be lobsters from Brittany, or crisp tomatoes from Provence on your plate. After dinner, stop by the champagne bar for a celebration that will transport you back to the golden age of luxury travel.

Belmond Royal Scotsman, Scotland

Explore Scotland's lochs, castles, and countryside on a slow-moving train. As the Royal Scotsman chugs through the Highlands, nestle underneath tartan wool blankets in your suite or nurse a scotch in the mahogany dining car. But what makes the Royal Scotsman unique among luxury trains is the onboard spa. Book a facial, massage, or manicure in the spa car for relaxation with a side of picturesque scenery.

Rovos Rail, South Africa

Get a taste of the diverse landscapes in South Africa on the Rovos Rail journey from Pretoria to Cape Town . The three-day excursion takes passengers on a wide-ranging tour of environments, from the grasslands of Highveld to the desert of Great Karoo. The view is particularly exceptional from the train's open-air balconies on the observation car. The train stops in the Cape Winelands for a parting drink before leaving passengers at the station in Cape Town.

Belmond Andean Explorer, Peru

Almost 600 years ago, the Inca Road System was a feat of engineering, where locals used to trek the 25,000 miles of road by foot or by llama. Today, guests can travel in luxury on the Belmond Andean Explorer . The train starts at the ancient capital of Cusco and proceeds through the Andean Plains, up to Lake Titicaca. Because of the high elevation in Peru, this train claims itself as one of the highest in the world. Inside, the cars are festooned with local flair, complete with Peruvian tapestries (made from alpaca wool) on the bed and pisco sours are served in the rear observation bar car.

Maharajas' Express, India

There are a few reasons why this train is consistently ranked among the most luxurious vacations one can have on the rails. Every car on a Maharajas' Express train has a private butler, and there's an impressive presidential suite for those willing to splurge. The seven-day Heritage of India tour is among the rail line's most popular offerings, which includes stops in Mumbai, Udaipur, Jodhpur, Jaipur, Agra, and Delhi.

The Presidential Train, Portugal

Portugal's Douro Valley has become an internationally recognized culinary destination. The Presidential Train brings some of the world's finest chefs to some of the world's freshest food as it chugs from Porto to Quinta do Vesuvio, on the eastern coast of the Douro Valley. Acclaimed chefs board every day for ten hours of dining delight, paired with wines from the region. Passengers can relax in private cabins and watch the golden valley through their windows as they wait for meal service.

The Ghan, Australia

Not every journey through the Australian Outback needs to be a dusty adventure. The Ghan Expedition is one of Australia's premiere luxury train routes, taking passengers on a four-day journey from Darwin to Adelaide. The train has been in operation since 1929, but has been updated to fit modern travel needs. Onboard meals include local fare like saltwater barramundi and grilled kangaroo fillet.

The Canadian, Canada

Journey across the Great White North all while staying warm in your train cabin. The Canadian offers services across the country from Toronto to Vancouver. If you never disembark the train, it will take four straight days to complete the route. Along the way, passengers will spot waterfalls, charming small towns, and the grand Rocky Mountains. Take the train in winter for the best views of snow-capped peaks and endless fields of white powder.

The Transcantábrico Gran Lujo, Spain

If you like your luxury with a dose of history, book a trip on the Transcantabrico Gran Lujo , where four of the cars are original 1923 Pullman cars. The trains are decorated to evoke the feeling of stepping back almost 100 years ago. Passengers can experience some of Spain's best vistas from the panoramic viewing car. Service goes across the northern coast of the country from San Sebastian to Santiago de Compostela.

Golden Eagle Trans-Siberian Express, Russia

The Trans-Siberian Express is now more than 100 years old — and you don't get to be a centenarian train route without offering an impressive repertoire of luxury services. The train runs from Moscow all the way to Vladivostok on the eastern coast. Along the way, passengers can take Russian language lessons, dance to a live pianist, or just spend as much time as possible in the bar — it won't close until the last person leaves. The lengthy 15-day journey starts at $19,825 per person.

Eastern & Oriental Express, Asia

Since 1993, this elegantly-decorated train has been making stops in three of Asia's most glittering cities — Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, and Singapore. The interiors of the Eastern & Oriental Express were inspired by the 1932 Marlene Dietrich film "Shanghai Express," and come with high-end details such as Thai silk, Malaysian embroidery, and cherrywood paneling. The rich design is enhanced by the views when the train passes through lush rainforest or ancient temples. Be sure to pack apparel worthy of the scene — evening wear is required for dinner.

Luxury in the Sky: The Ultimate Guide to Private Jet Travel

TL;DR: Key Takeaways

• Private jets offer unparalleled luxury and convenience.
• The global private jet market is booming, with significant growth expected.
• Access to more airports and personalized service are among the top benefits.
• Understanding the costs and how to charter a jet are key for interested travelers.
• Insider tips and tricks to make your private jet experience unforgettable.

The Pinnacle of Personal Travel: Why Private Jets?

With a private jet, you have the flexibility to create your own schedule, choose your own airports, and avoid the unpredictability of commercial flying. This level of convenience and efficiency is invaluable for business travelers, celebrities, or anyone who values their time and privacy. Private aviation also allows for a level of customization that is unmatched by commercial airlines, from bespoke interiors to gourmet catering.

Statistic: According to a report by Grand View Research, the global private jet market size was valued at USD 13.64 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.2% from 2021 to 2028. This growth is indicative of the increasing demand for luxury travel and the value placed on privacy, convenience, and time-saving. As the world becomes more connected, and as people seek more personalized and exclusive experiences, the allure of private jet travel continues to soar.

Unmatched Access: The World is Your Oyster

One of the most significant advantages of flying private is the access to a wider range of airports. Commercial airlines are limited to about 550 airports in the U.S., but private jets can take you to over 5,000 airports nationwide. This means you can land closer to your final destination, reducing travel time and hassle. The ability to access smaller, less congested airports not only provides convenience but also ensures a more discreet and efficient travel experience.

With private jet travel , the world truly becomes your oyster. Whether you're flying to a remote island, a bustling city, or a secluded mountain retreat, private jets offer the ultimate in accessibility. This unparalleled access opens up a world of possibilities for personal vacations, business trips, or spontaneous getaways. It allows travelers to explore hidden gems and reach destinations that might otherwise be difficult or time-consuming to access.

Fact: Private jets can use more than 5,000 airports in the U.S., while commercial airlines only reach around 550. This extensive network of airports is a game-changer for travelers seeking convenience, speed, and flexibility. It's not just about getting there faster; it's about making the journey as enjoyable and stress-free as possible.

The Status Symbol: More Than Just a Flight

Private jets are more than just a mode of transportation; they are a statement of power, success, and distinction. They offer an elite level of service, privacy, and comfort that is unrivaled. For many, the decision to fly private is about more than just convenience; it's about experiencing the zenith of luxury and personalization. Whether hosting a business meeting in the sky, enjoying quality time with family, or simply relaxing in a bespoke cabin, private jet passengers expect and receive the best of the best.

Quote: "Private jets are the ultimate status symbol for high-net-worth individuals." - Jeffrey Lowe, Managing Director of Asian Sky Group. This quote highlights the prestige associated with private jet travel. It's a world where every detail is curated to reflect the passenger's tastes and preferences, from the flight schedule to the in-flight amenities. In the realm of private jets, the journey is just as important as the destination, and every flight is an opportunity to experience the pinnacle of airborne luxury.

Customization and Comfort: Tailored to Your Needs

Every aspect of a private jet experience can be customized to suit your preferences. From the gourmet meals served onboard to the plush interiors and entertainment options, everything is tailored to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable journey.

Understanding the Costs: Investment in Luxury

While the allure of private jet travel is undeniable, it's important to understand the costs involved. Chartering a private jet can vary widely based on the aircraft type, distance of the journey, and additional services required. However, for those who value time, privacy, and luxury, the investment is often worth every penny.

How to Charter a Private Jet: A Step-by-Step Guide

Embarking on the journey of chartering a private jet is an exciting venture into the world of luxury travel. The process, while seemingly complex, can be broken down into manageable steps to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. Initially, define your travel needs by setting a clear itinerary. Consider the number of passengers, destinations, dates, and any specific requirements you might have. This information is crucial in selecting the right aircraft that suits your needs, whether it's a light jet for short trips or a larger, long-range aircraft for international travel.

Next, delve into the vast market of private aviation and select a reputable broker or operator. These professionals offer invaluable expertise and access to a wide range of aircraft. They can guide you through the selection process, ensuring that the jet you choose meets all your criteria for comfort, size, and range. Discuss your preferences and let them tailor the experience to your desires, from in-flight catering to ground transportation.

Understanding the charter agreement is vital. It outlines all the terms, conditions, and costs associated with your charter flight. Pay close attention to details such as cancellation policies, luggage allowances, and any additional fees that might apply. A clear understanding of these elements will help avoid any surprises and ensure a transparent and fair agreement.

Finally, confirm your booking and prepare to enjoy the unparalleled experience of private jet travel. With every detail tailored to your preference, you're set to enjoy the ultimate in luxury, convenience, and efficiency. Welcome aboard your private jet, where the journey is just as important as the destination!

Insider Tips and Uncommon Angles

Maximizing the value of your private jet experience goes beyond simply booking a flight. It involves strategic planning and knowing the industry's best-kept secrets. Here are some insider tips to ensure that every journey you take is as cost-effective as it is luxurious:

Firstly, flexibility is your best friend when it comes to securing the best rates. Private jet pricing can vary significantly based on demand, so if you have the ability to adjust your travel dates, you might find significantly lower prices. Avoid peak travel times and be open to flying on weekdays or during off-peak hours to enjoy quieter skies and better rates.

Secondly, don't overlook the opportunity presented by empty leg flights. These are flights that need to return to their base or reposition for the next customer and are often sold at a fraction of the cost. Subscribing to newsletters or alerts from reputable charter companies can keep you informed about these deals, offering luxury travel experiences at incredibly competitive prices.

Lastly, building a relationship with a charter company can yield numerous benefits. Frequent flyers might find themselves with access to exclusive deals, personalized services, or even complimentary upgrades. A good rapport with your provider ensures that your preferences are known and met with each flight, from your favorite meals to the smallest comfort details, making every journey uniquely yours.

By employing these strategies, you can enjoy the opulence of private jet travel while also being savvy about your investment. Each trip becomes not just a journey but a masterfully crafted experience of luxury and efficiency.

Conclusion: The Sky's the Limit

The allure of private jet travel is undeniable, representing the zenith of luxury , privacy, and convenience. As the epitome of modern travel, it caters to those who demand the highest standards in speed, comfort, and service. Whether you're a business executive seeking efficiency or a leisure traveler desiring the ultimate in exclusivity, private jets provide a tailored experience that commercial flights simply cannot match.

The growing market reflects a broader recognition of the value of time and quality, with more individuals and companies choosing to invest in the unmatched experience of private aviation. As technology advances and accessibility increases, the sky's the limit for the future of private jet travel. Embrace the journey where every detail is refined to perfection, and the world becomes your oyster, all from the comfort of your personal sanctuary above the clouds.

How much does it cost to charter a private jet?

Costs vary widely based on factors like aircraft type, distance, and additional services. It's best to get a quote based on your specific needs.

Can anyone charter a private jet?

Yes, if you have the means, you can charter a private jet. No special permissions are needed beyond standard travel documents.

How far in advance should I book a private jet?

It's best to book as early as possible, especially for peak travel times. However, some companies offer last-minute deals on empty leg flights.

What are empty leg flights?

Empty leg flights occur when a private jet needs to return to its home base or travel to another location for its next charter flight. These can often be booked at a discount.

Are private jets safer than commercial flights?

Private jets adhere to the same safety regulations as commercial flights and often provide an even higher level of attention to maintenance and service.

What is the range of a private jet?

The range varies significantly among different types of jets, from light jets suitable for shorter trips to ultra-long-range jets that can fly thousands of miles without refueling.

Can I bring pets on a private jet?

Yes, one of the advantages of private flying is the ability to bring pets along. However, it's important to discuss this with the charter company beforehand to understand any specific requirements or restrictions.

Is there a luggage limit on private jets?

While generally more generous than commercial airlines, luggage capacity can vary based on the aircraft size and type. It's crucial to confirm this with the charter company when planning your trip.

How do I ensure my privacy and security when flying private?

Reputable private jet companies prioritize your privacy and security. From discreet terminals to non-disclosure agreements for crew, multiple measures are in place to protect your confidentiality.

Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo

Located in mexico.

If Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo, Mexico is not on your radar yet, it should be. This fantastic resort, located in Tamarindo, Mexico, recently opened.

There is no Four Seasons rewards program, but if you are a regular guest of the Four Seasons or even want to try this iconic brand for the first time, you can take advantage of loyalty style benefits at Four Seasons hotels for no extra cost by booking your next stay via our luxury travel concierge .

This new hotel can be found in a secluded enclave along the Pacific Ocean in the state of Jalisco, between the towns of La Manzanilla and Barra de Navidad. The area pictured above, known as “Costalegre” or “Joy Coast,” is acclaimed for its private beaches, lush landscape, and unique topography.

Just 2% of the surrounding 3,000 acre (1,220 hectare) private nature Reserve is being developed, offering endless opportunities for visitors to explore through guided excursions on land and sea.

The property is located only 40 minutes via car from the International Airport of Manzanillo-Costalegre, Mexico, where there are daily flights from Mexico City as well as direct flights during key dates from the United States and Canada.

Direct flights to Manzanillo-Costalegre International Airport (ZLO) are available daily from Mexico City, weekly from Houston, and from Los Angeles. Seasonally, direct flights are also available from Phoenix, Dallas, and Calgary, opening up a world of opportunity for travelers to arrange connecting flights.

ZLO is also well equipped to welcome private jets, which Four Seasons representatives can meet directly on the runway to ensure a smooth transfer to Tamarindo. The Resort also has its own pier for guests arriving via private yacht.

Style & Character

The Resort is part of the more than 1,200 hectares (3,000 acres) El Tamarindo master-planned development featuring multiple beaches and private coves. The development has been built to take advantage of elevations ranging from sea level to approximately 120 meters (394 feet) above sea level, providing breathtaking views of the landscape, golf course, and ocean.

Harmonizing tradition with contemporary flair, Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo was meticulously crafted by architects Victor Legorreta and Mauricio Rocha, who collaborated under the name LegoRocha for this project. Guided by lead interior designers Uribe Krayer and Estudio Esterlina, complemented by landscape architect Mario Schjetnan, and enriched by restaurant designers Esrawe Studio and Bibiana Huber, every facet of the resort reflects a seamless fusion of creativity and sophistication.

Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo supports Mexican artisans, providing financial recognition for artistry that showcases Mexico’s rich heritage through exquisite handcrafted textiles and artwork. From the architectural marvels to the meticulously curated indoor and outdoor spaces, and from artworks to tableware and team uniforms, guests are immersed in the essence of Mexican craftsmanship at every turn. The resort’s boutique offers a curated selection of handcrafted items, allowing guests to carry tangible mementos of their Tamarindo experience home with them.

Service & Facilities

Guests can enjoy authentic dining options, an exceptional golf course, rejuvenating spa and wellness treatments, and three pools, all set against the backdrop of three tranquil, nearly deserted beaches. Whether seeking water sports or simply basking in the sun, the resort provides ample opportunities for relaxation and adventure.

Resident biologists and researchers lead guests on guided hikes along natural footpaths crafted by indigenous wildlife, traversing jungles and coastlines. Delve into the realm of medicinal plants used since pre-Hispanic times, and acquaint yourself with the 70 endemic species and countless birds, mammals, amphibians, and reptiles that inhabit Tamarindo. Visit the Discovery Centre to deepen your understanding of the region’s biodiversity and the “rewilding” initiatives fostering the resurgence of Earth’s natural rhythms in this locale.

The El Tamarindo Golf Course, long cherished by avid golfers, now forms part of the Four Seasons resort experience. Designed by David Fleming, the 18-hole links course winds through tropical jungle and along the rocky coastline, offering scenic vistas at every turn. With the number of golfers strictly limited, players enjoy an almost private course, ensuring an intimate golfing experience. Facilities include a practice range and private instruction, with the resort offering shipping services for gear or high-quality clubs and shoes for rent.

Indulge in additional resort experiences at the Casa Terrazas pop-up spa, where couples and individuals luxuriate in massages indoors or amidst nature. Relax by the resort pools under the sun or in the seclusion of a private cabana. There is also a Four Seasons kids program, a dedicated program fully supervised for younger guests, and the Escondite teen center for older children.

Four Seasons Resort Tamarindo provides an enchanting setting for couples envisioning the epitome of a destination wedding, complemented by a team of wedding specialists dedicated to ensuring every moment is flawless.

The resort boasts 157 cliffside and beachfront accommodations, with many featuring private pools, offering guests a luxurious and secluded retreat enveloped by the surrounding jungle and lush golf course. Accommodations are well suited to both adult travelers and those visiting with children.

The contemporary architectural and interior design by the firms of LEGORRETA and Taller Mauricio Rocha + Gabriela Carrillo blend with the natural surroundings and showcase local materials and textures.

Food & Drink

Explore the flavors of Tamarindo beyond the resort’s menus by embarking on a culinary journey at the 35-acre (14-hectare) Rancho Ortega. Here, Culinary Director Nicolás Piatti and the kitchen and farm teams cultivate indigenous plant species that will later grace the plates of the resort’s restaurants.

Dive deeper into Tamarindo’s culture by meeting La Manzanilla fishers or embarking on a macro-photography scuba tour. Those seeking adventure can paddle out to discover hidden spots along the coast, or explore the underwater wonders with free diving in the pristine waters.

Dining options at Four Seasons include Coyul which showcases modern Mexican cuisine crafted by renowned Chef Elena Reygadas, while Nacho offers a laid-back taqueria experience by one of the resort’s pools, perfect for snacks and casual meals.

Private dining experiences are available for romantic beach dinners, cliffside lunches with family, or starlit gatherings with friends, complemented by the option for in-villa dining available around the clock. For an unforgettable oceanfront dining experience, Sal, an oceanside seafood restaurant and sunset cocktail bar, offers a new addition to the culinary offerings.

●      Accessibility & Inclusivity: AI can break down language barriers and assist travelers with disabilities. Imagine real-time translation tools and AI-powered accessibility recommendations, making travel a more inclusive experience for everyone.

However, AI also comes with challenges:

●      Ethical Considerations: Transparency and data privacy are crucial. AI algorithms need to be free from bias and ensure responsible data usage.

●      Human Interaction: Travel advisors still have a vital role. AI shouldn't replace the human touch. We envision a future where AI complements human expertise, offering a dynamic and personalized travel experience.

So, there you have it. World Trip Deal (WTD) is shaking things up in the travel industry with a potent blend of AI and affordability.

From personalized itineraries to hidden gem recommendations, WTD is making luxury travel accessible for the budget-conscious adventurer.

But WTD's vision extends beyond booking. They're looking to leverage AI throughout your entire journey, offering real-time recommendations, fostering a travel community, and even promoting sustainable practices.

 As AI continues to reshape the travel landscape, WTD is poised to be a leader in this exciting transformation.

So, the next time you're dreaming of an escape, ditch the outdated guidebooks and endless price comparisons.

Head over to World Trip Deal and let AI craft the perfect adventure for you. After all, travel should be an unforgettable experience, not a logistical nightmare. And with WTD, it can be just that.

Travel Itinerary For One Week in Moscow: The Best of Moscow!

I just got back from one week in Moscow. And, as you might have already guessed, it was a mind-boggling experience. It was not my first trip to the Russian capital. But I hardly ever got enough time to explore this sprawling city. Visiting places for business rarely leaves enough time for sightseeing. I think that if you’ve got one week in Russia, you can also consider splitting your time between its largest cities (i.e. Saint Petersburg ) to get the most out of your trip. Seven days will let you see the majority of the main sights and go beyond just scratching the surface. In this post, I’m going to share with you my idea of the perfect travel itinerary for one week in Moscow.

Moscow is perhaps both the business and cultural hub of Russia. There is a lot more to see here than just the Kremlin and Saint Basil’s Cathedral. Centuries-old churches with onion-shaped domes dotted around the city are in stark contrast with newly completed impressive skyscrapers of Moscow City dominating the skyline. I spent a lot of time thinking about my Moscow itinerary before I left. And this city lived up to all of my expectations.

Travel Itinerary For One Week in Moscow

Day 1 – red square and the kremlin.

Metro Station: Okhotny Ryad on Red Line.

No trip to Moscow would be complete without seeing its main attraction. The Red Square is just a stone’s throw away from several metro stations. It is home to some of the most impressive architectural masterpieces in the city. The first thing you’ll probably notice after entering it and passing vendors selling weird fur hats is the fairytale-like looking Saint Basil’s Cathedral. It was built to commemorate one of the major victories of Ivan the Terrible. I once spent 20 minutes gazing at it, trying to find the perfect angle to snap it. It was easier said than done because of the hordes of locals and tourists.

As you continue strolling around Red Square, there’s no way you can miss Gum. It was widely known as the main department store during the Soviet Era. Now this large (yet historic) shopping mall is filled with expensive boutiques, pricey eateries, etc. During my trip to Moscow, I was on a tight budget. So I only took a retro-style stroll in Gum to get a rare glimpse of a place where Soviet leaders used to grocery shop and buy their stuff. In case you want some modern shopping experience, head to the Okhotny Ryad Shopping Center with stores like New Yorker, Zara, and Adidas.

To continue this Moscow itinerary, next you may want to go inside the Kremlin walls. This is the center of Russian political power and the president’s official residence. If you’re planning to pay Kremlin a visit do your best to visit Ivan the Great Bell Tower as well. Go there as early as possible to avoid crowds and get an incredible bird’s-eye view. There are a couple of museums that are available during designated visiting hours. Make sure to book your ticket online and avoid lines.

Day 2 – Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the Tretyakov Gallery, and the Arbat Street

Metro Station: Kropotkinskaya on Red Line

As soon as you start creating a Moscow itinerary for your second day, you’ll discover that there are plenty of metro stations that are much closer to certain sites. Depending on your route, take a closer look at the metro map to pick the closest.

The white marble walls of Christ the Saviour Cathedral are awe-inspiring. As you approach this tallest Orthodox Christian church, you may notice the bronze sculptures, magnificent arches, and cupolas that were created to commemorate Russia’s victory against Napoleon.

How to Get a Decent Haircut in a Foreign Country

Unfortunately, the current Cathedral is a replica, since original was blown to bits in 1931 by the Soviet government. The new cathedral basically follows the original design, but they have added some new elements such as marble high reliefs.

Home to some precious collection of artworks, in Tretyakov Gallery you can find more than 150,000 of works spanning centuries of artistic endeavor. Originally a privately owned gallery, it now has become one of the largest museums in Russia. The Gallery is often considered essential to visit. But I have encountered a lot of locals who have never been there.

Famous for its souvenirs, musicians, and theaters, Arbat street is among the few in Moscow that were turned into pedestrian zones. Arbat street is usually very busy with tourists and locals alike. My local friend once called it the oldest street in Moscow dating back to 1493. It is a kilometer long walking street filled with fancy gift shops, small cozy restaurants, lots of cute cafes, and street artists. It is closed to any vehicular traffic, so you can easily stroll it with kids.

Day 3 – Moscow River Boat Ride, Poklonnaya Hill Victory Park, the Moscow City

Metro Station: Kievskaya and Park Pobedy on Dark Blue Line / Vystavochnaya on Light Blue Line

Voyaging along the Moscow River is definitely one of the best ways to catch a glimpse of the city and see the attractions from a bit different perspective. Depending on your Moscow itinerary, travel budget and the time of the year, there are various types of boats available. In the summer there is no shortage of boats, and you’ll be spoiled for choice.

Travel Itinerary for One Week in Beijing

If you find yourself in Moscow during the winter months, I’d recommend going with Radisson boat cruise. These are often more expensive (yet comfy). They offer refreshments like tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and, of course, alcoholic drinks. Prices may vary but mostly depend on your food and drink selection. Find their main pier near the opulent Ukraine hotel . The hotel is one of the “Seven Sisters”, so if you’re into the charm of Stalinist architecture don’t miss a chance to stay there.

The area near Poklonnaya Hill has the closest relation to the country’s recent past. The memorial complex was completed in the mid-1990s to commemorate the Victory and WW2 casualties. Also known as the Great Patriotic War Museum, activities here include indoor attractions while the grounds around host an open-air museum with old tanks and other vehicles used on the battlefield.

How I Planned My Trip to Vietnam

The hallmark of the memorial complex and the first thing you see as you exit metro is the statue of Nike mounted to its column. This is a very impressive Obelisk with a statue of Saint George slaying the dragon at its base.

Maybe not as impressive as Shanghai’s Oriental Pearl Tower , the skyscrapers of the Moscow City (otherwise known as Moscow International Business Center) are so drastically different from dull Soviet architecture. With 239 meters and 60 floors, the Empire Tower is the seventh highest building in the business district.

The observation deck occupies 56 floor from where you have some panoramic views of the city. I loved the view in the direction of Moscow State University and Luzhniki stadium as well to the other side with residential quarters. The entrance fee is pricey, but if you’re want to get a bird’s eye view, the skyscraper is one of the best places for doing just that.

Day 4 – VDNKh, Worker and Collective Farm Woman Monument, The Ostankino TV Tower

Metro Station: VDNKh on Orange Line

VDNKh is one of my favorite attractions in Moscow. The weird abbreviation actually stands for Russian vystavka dostizheniy narodnogo khozyaystva (Exhibition of Achievements of the National Economy). With more than 200 buildings and 30 pavilions on the grounds, VDNKh serves as an open-air museum. You can easily spend a full day here since the park occupies a very large area.

Places to Visit in Barcelona That Aren’t Beaches

First, there are pavilions that used to showcase different cultures the USSR was made of. Additionally, there is a number of shopping pavilions, as well as Moskvarium (an Oceanarium) that features a variety of marine species. VDNKh is a popular venue for events and fairs. There is always something going on, so I’d recommend checking their website if you want to see some particular exhibition.

A stone’s throw away from VDNKh there is a very distinctive 25-meters high monument. Originally built in 1937 for the world fair in Paris, the hulking figures of men and women holding a hammer and a sickle represent the Soviet idea of united workers and farmers. It doesn’t take much time to see the monument, but visiting it gives some idea of the Soviet Union’s grandiose aspirations.

I have a thing for tall buildings. So to continue my travel itinerary for one week in Moscow I decided to climb the fourth highest TV tower in the world. This iconic 540m tower is a fixture of the skyline. You can see it virtually from everywhere in Moscow, and this is where you can get the best panoramic views (yep, even better than Empire skyscraper).

Parts of the floor are made of tempered glass, so it can be quite scary to exit the elevator. But trust me, as you start observing buildings and cars below, you won’t want to leave. There is only a limited number of tickets per day, so you may want to book online. Insider tip: the first tour is cheaper, you can save up to $10 if go there early.

Day 5 – A Tour To Moscow Manor Houses

Metro Station: Kolomenskoye, Tsaritsyno on Dark Green Line / Kuskovo on Purple Line

I love visiting the manor houses and palaces in Moscow. These opulent buildings were generally built to house Russian aristocratic families and monarchs. Houses tend to be rather grand affairs with impressive architecture. And, depending on the whims of the owners, some form of a landscaped garden.

During the early part of the 20th century though, many of Russia’s aristocratic families (including the family of the last emperor) ended up being killed or moving abroad . Their manor houses were nationalized. Some time later (after the fall of the USSR) these were open to the public. It means that today a great many of Moscow’s finest manor houses and palaces are open for touring.

20 Travel Tips I’ve Learned From Travelling The World

There are 20 manor houses scattered throughout the city and more than 25 in the area around. But not all of them easily accessible and exploring them often takes a lot of time. I’d recommend focusing on three most popular estates in Moscow that are some 30-minute metro ride away from Kremlin.

Sandwiched between the Moscow River and the Andropov Avenue, Kolomenskoye is a UNESCO site that became a public park in the 1920’s. Once a former royal estate, now it is one of the most tranquil parks in the city with gorgeous views. The Ascension Church, The White Column, and the grounds are a truly grand place to visit.

You could easily spend a full day here, exploring a traditional Russian village (that is, in fact, a market), picnicking by the river, enjoying the Eastern Orthodox church architecture, hiking the grounds as well as and wandering the park and gardens with wildflower meadows, apple orchards, and birch and maple groves. The estate museum showcases Russian nature at its finest year-round.

12 Stunning National Parks and Regional Parks In France

If my travel itinerary for one week in Moscow was a family tree, Tsaritsyno Park would probably be the crazy uncle that no-one talks about. It’s a large park in the south of the city of mind-boggling proportions, unbelievable in so many ways, and yet most travelers have never heard of it.

The palace was supposed to be a summer home for Empress Catherine the Great. But since the construction didn’t meet with her approval the palace was abandoned. Since the early 1990’s the palace, the pond, and the grounds have been undergoing renovations. The entire complex is now looking brighter and more elaborately decorated than at possibly any other time during its history. Like most parks in Moscow, you can visit Tsaritsyno free of charge, but there is a small fee if you want to visit the palace.

How To Stop Procrastinating When Trip Planning

Last, but by no means least on my Moscow itinerary is Kuskovo Park . This is definitely an off-the-beaten-path place. While it is not easily accessible, you will be rewarded with a lack of crowds. This 18th-century summer country house of the Sheremetev family was one of the first summer country estates of the Russian nobility. And when you visit you’ll quickly realize why locals love this park.

Like many other estates, Kuskovo has just been renovated. So there are lovely French formal garden, a grotto, and the Dutch house to explore. Make sure to plan your itinerary well because the estate is some way from a metro station.

Day 6 – Explore the Golden Ring

Creating the Moscow itinerary may keep you busy for days with the seemingly endless amount of things to do. Visiting the so-called Golden Ring is like stepping back in time. Golden Ring is a “theme route” devised by promotion-minded journalist and writer Yuri Bychkov.

Having started in Moscow the route will take you through a number of historical cities. It now includes Suzdal, Vladimir, Kostroma, Yaroslavl and Sergiev Posad. All these awe-inspiring towns have their own smaller kremlins and feature dramatic churches with onion-shaped domes, tranquil residential areas, and other architectural landmarks.

Two Weeks In Thailand: The Perfect 14-Day Itinerary

I only visited two out of eight cities included on the route. It is a no-brainer that Sergiev Posad is the nearest and the easiest city to see on a day trip from Moscow. That being said, you can explore its main attractions in just one day. Located some 70 km north-east of the Russian capital, this tiny and overlooked town is home to Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, UNESCO Site.

Sergiev Posad is often described as being at the heart of Russian spiritual life. So it is uncommon to see the crowds of Russian pilgrims showing a deep reverence for their religion. If you’re traveling independently and using public transport, you can reach Sergiev Posad by bus (departs from VDNKh) or by suburban commuter train from Yaroslavskaya Railway Station (Bahnhof). It takes about one and a half hours to reach the town.

Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius is a great place to get a glimpse of filling and warming Russian lunch, specifically at the “ Gostevaya Izba ” restaurant. Try the duck breast, hearty potato and vegetables, and the awesome Napoleon cake.

Day 7 – Gorky Park, Izmailovo Kremlin, Patriarch’s Ponds

Metro Station: Park Kultury or Oktyabrskaya on Circle Line / Partizanskaya on Dark Blue Line / Pushkinskaya on Dark Green Line

Gorky Park is in the heart of Moscow. It offers many different types of outdoor activities, such as dancing, cycling, skateboarding, walking, jogging, and anything else you can do in a park. Named after Maxim Gorky, this sprawling and lovely park is where locals go on a picnic, relax and enjoy free yoga classes. It’s a popular place to bike around, and there is a Muzeon Art Park not far from here. A dynamic location with a younger vibe. There is also a pier, so you can take a cruise along the river too.

How to Save Money While Traveling in Europe

The Kremlin in Izmailovo is by no means like the one you can find near the Red Square. Originally built for decorative purposes, it now features the Vernissage flea market and a number of frequent fairs, exhibitions, and conferences. Every weekend, there’s a giant flea market in Izmailovo, where dozens of stalls sell Soviet propaganda crap, Russian nesting dolls, vinyl records, jewelry and just about any object you can imagine. Go early in the morning if you want to beat the crowds.

All the Bulgakov’s fans should pay a visit to Patriarch’s Ponds (yup, that is plural). With a lovely small city park and the only one (!) pond in the middle, the location is where the opening scene of Bulgakov’s novel Master and Margarita was set. The novel is centered around a visit by Devil to the atheistic Soviet Union is considered by many critics to be one of the best novels of the 20th century. I spent great two hours strolling the nearby streets and having lunch in the hipster cafe.

Conclusion and Recommendations

To conclude, Moscow is a safe city to visit. I have never had a problem with getting around and most locals are really friendly once they know you’re a foreigner. Moscow has undergone some serious reconstruction over the last few years. So you can expect some places to be completely different. I hope my one week Moscow itinerary was helpful! If you have less time, say 4 days or 5 days, I would cut out day 6 and day 7. You could save the Golden Ring for a separate trip entirely as there’s lots to see!

Gladys Parker

I know very little about Moscow or Russia for the\at matter. I do know I would have to see the Red Square and all of its exquisite architectural masterpieces. Also the CATHEDRAL OF CHRIST THE SAVIOUR. Thanks for shedding some light on visiting Moscow.

Thanks for swinging by! The Red Square is a great starting point, but there way too many places and things to discover aside from it!

Ruthy @ Percolate Kitchen

You are making me so jealous!! I’ve always wanted to see Russia.

Moscow is in my bucket list, I don’t know when I can visit there, your post is really useful. As a culture rich place we need to spend at least week.

What makes Moscow worth a visit are it's colorful and remarkable structures and the warmth of the inviting capital city. Have a tour of the city which is generally known as the ‘Fire Square’.

Best time to visit

In summers, Moscow generally offers a warm climate along with a little downpour. It is a great time to roam around the city in light, cotton clothes and witness many exciting tourist attractions around you. A tour to the Red Square, St. Basil Cathedral, and Kolomenskoye museum on a nice sunny day would be perfect in Moscow city.

The New Year’s Eve in Moscow’s winter is a great deal and is worth witnessing in a visit to the Russian capital. Many games, contests, and Russian cultural traditions take place in Red Square area every year while it is covered in snow. Make sure to pack loads of warm clothes to beat the freezing temperature while you give a tour to Moscow during winters.

Best Way to reach
