Going to the city of Prague has always been a childhood dream of mine. The place alone is an epitome of natural beauty, richness of culture and diversity. Couple it with a rail journey so luxurious and comfortable as the luxury train rides offered by the Orient Express. Really, nothing could be better than this duo.
Take that journey through Venice and experience the uniquely fascinating architectural tour that will bring you to the city of Venice, Prague and all the way to London. The rail journey takes a stretch of six nights and seven days to get the most out of this exciting voyage to Venice and other several wonderful locations.
