Orient Express to Cowes - for Cowes Week

Renowned since Edwardian times as a major event in the social calendar, the maritime spectacle of Cowes is yours to experience in the best way possible - at sea, from a tall ship.

What's Included
Brunch with Bellini on outward journey, tall ship trip with light buffet lunch, three course supper with champagne and wine on return journey.

Your Journey
Cowes Week has been renowned since Edwardian times as a quintessential part of the social calendar. Hundreds of vessels from the smallest dinghies to the largest ocean racers manned by amateurs and professionals gather to participate in racing at all levels or simply to watch.

Brunch with Bellini is served on the outward journey. On arrival at Southampton you will board a tall ship, from where you can enjoy this event at its best. Dating back to the turn of the century, these fine old ships provide the perfect vantage point from which to enjoy the racing. Lunch with Pimms, wine or beer will be served on board. (Please note: sailing into the Solent will depend on weather conditions).

Return to Southampton Docks Station to reboard the British Pullman. A glass of chilled champagne is served as soon as you board the train. This will be followed by a three course supper accompanied by half a bottle of wine.

What to Wear
Informal, comfortable clothing is appropriate and please be prepared for rain or windy weather, even in summer! You are asked not to wear jeans or high heels.

Access
This journey is rated as most enjoyable for passengers with special access needs. Wheelchair users will need to be lifted on to the boat and access to the toilets aboard (these are located down steep steps) may be difficult for non-able bodied passengers.

Please note: All timings shown are for your guidance only. Confirmed timings will be supplied with your travel documents.
