Attitude magazine, in partnership with Belmond as proud supporters of the LGBTQ community, invites you to embrace your inner decadence and join us as we embark on a glorious journey that combines the elegance and charm of the Belmond Hotel Cipriani in Venice, and the timeless appeal of the glittering Venice Simplon-Orient-Express.

This unique charter, welcoming the LGBTQ community and its allies, takes the form of a one-off, bespoke itinerary that makes for the trip of a lifetime:

7th November 2020

Your journey begins with an overnight stay at the legendary Belmond Hotel Cipriani on Giudecca Island in Venice. Party with us and enjoy a spectacular Gala Dinner at the Granaries of the Republic, restored to their 19th century glory and the setting for countless historic celebrations.

8th November 2020

After breakfast we transfer by motor launch to Venice’s Santa Lucia station and step aboard the legendary Venice Simplon-Orient-Express, the most storied set of carriages in the world.

You’ll find the train transformed for our 11:30am departure into an exclusive party venue and – in Bar Car 3764 – waiters serving wicked cocktails created exclusively for this journey.

We travel overnight through the Alps and on to Paris, where you can relax in your plush private cabin with round-the-clock steward, enjoy delicious fine dining at lunch and dinner and just relax among the company of kindred spirits with your fellow travellers from, or allies of, the LGBTQ community.

9th November 2020

Journey’s end is in Paris in time for breakfast, where you disembark with memories made and new friendships that will last a lifetime.
