Luxury Trains of the World: The South Orient Express

Discover the world’s most luxurious trains and relive a bygone era, when the journey itself was the most significant part of the experience; rather than simply getting there. A journey where the passenger becomes a real traveller and is able to experience the much more gracious way of travel - in a living recreation of the golden age of rail.

Eight vintage 40’s and 50’s era stainless steel Budd cars, restored in luxurious classical period style with dome dining, vista dome, parlor, and observation cars provide the finest rail excursions through the incomparable Copper Canyon area of Northern Mexico in the rugged Sierra Madre Mountains. Covering an area larger than the Grand Canyon, this area is rugged and remote; much only accessible by train. Visit the natural wonders, rustic villages and the Tarahumara Indians, the native inhabitants of the area.
