Earlier this year, Belmond relaunched its Eastern &, Oriental Express, a pleasure boat train that will carry you through Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand. Are you prepared to board the opulent Eastern &, Oriental Express, a trip of a life, from Singapore?
Here’s a test plan–
Day 1: Singapore– Kuala Lumpur First, board the beautiful green and gold station at Woodlands Station and live into your house, adorned with cherrywood, Thai silks, and Malaysian stitching. Enjoy the day teas served as you sail through Malaysia’s beautiful landscapes. A premium Eastern integration dinner and live jazz will follow a wonderful evening at the Piano Bar.
Time 2: Kuala Lumpur – Langkawi Wake up to breakfast in your house as you pass Malaysia’s beautiful rice paddies and settlements. After breakfast, journey to Langkawi’s Pulau Payar Marine Park, a shelter for lively marine life where you’ll get on a remote area with yoga, massages, snorkeling, and more. A beautiful return to the coach will finish the day.
Day 3: Butterworth – Penang Arrive in Penang and pick your experience: a guided art journey in George Town, a cooking school on Penang Hill, or a trishaw ride through the city’s beautiful streets. Reboard the train for lunch, then explore Ipoh’s mix of old-world charm and street art. Celebrate the final evening with cuisine and entertainment.
Day 4: Johor – Singapore Enjoy breakfast as you travel through Johor’s stunning beaches and rainforests. Cross the strait back to Singapore.
The Dior Spa
Starting this week, they’ll take slow travel and wellness to new heights. And this is so cool!
Relaxing treatments from the new Dior Spa on the Eastern & Oriental Express will transform your luxury rail journey.
This serenity aboard the luxurious Dior Spa Eastern &, Oriental Express is in one of the train’s 16 carriages. The oasis is adorned with Christian Dior’s signature emblem, the Toile de Jouy motif, and is made of stunning tropical wood materials to reflect Southeast Asia’s unmatched beauty.
The spa services on this train are just a few, just a few.
