Tuscany
Where Legends and Landscapes Collide
It all begins in Paris—because where else?
Guests are greeted with champagne as
they step into their lavish cabins, choosing
between Historic Cabins, opulent Grand
Suites, or the ultra-stylish Suites. As the
train glides through pastoral countrysides,
the elegant Bar Car '3674' hums with piano
music and clinking glasses, while Michelin-
starred Chef Jean Imbert crafts a culinary
experience inspired by the regions you're
crossing. e scent of truffle-laden pasta
mingles with the fizz of fresh cocktails.
Sleep? Optional.
Morning greets passengers with the rolling
hills of Tuscany. After a leisurely breakfast
served in the privacy of your cabin, the
train halts in Arezzo. From there, a curated
itinerary unfolds: Siena's medieval charm,
a private tour of Palazzo Pannocchieschi
d'Elci, and a lunch of locally-sourced Tuscan
flavors that could make even the most jaded
traveler swoon.
But the true masterpiece awaits: Castello,
Di Casole, A Belmond Hotel, Tuscany .
With roots in Etruscan times, this Belmond
estate is where history meets indulgence.
You'll spend two nights here, surrounded
by olive groves and vineyards, with an
agenda that feels as if it were designed by
the gods of luxury themselves. Stargazing
in an amphitheater? Check. Tuscan village
festivities in the courtyard? Naturally. By the
time you've wandered the estate's trails on
your final morning, you'll be plotting how to
stay forever.
