The baroque old town is a UNESCO world heritage site with its colourful old buildings and winding streets leading up the dominating Festung Hohensalzburg, one of the largest medieval castles in Europe.

A visit to Salzburg wouldn’t be complete without going to the birth place of the world's most famous composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The house is now a museum dedicated to Mozart where you can look at various fascinating exhibits, including his musical instruments and correspondence from the Mozart family.

Day 4

Boarding the Venice Simplon Orient Express

After another morning in Salzburg, depart in first class on the service for Innsbruck. Once in Innsbruck board the gleaming carriages of the Venice Simplon Orient Express and settle back into your private cabin. A leisurely four course dinner will be served, prepared on board by the train's skilled French chefs. Enjoy a brandy or liqueur with convivial company in the Bar Car before retiring for the night.

Day 5

Venice Simplon Orient Express to London

The next morning continental breakfast is brought to you by your steward. Later, enjoy a delicious brunch in the restaurant car as you travel on towards the French coast.

After the short Channel crossing board the cream and umber carriages of the British Pullman for the journey to London. A sophisticated High Tea with a glass of champagne is served at your table while you watch the gentle scenery of Kent pass by. All too soon, you are drawing into London Victoria station.
