fter a year (or longer) of staying close to home, it’s time to bring back the Golden Age of travel! Picture the 1920s and 30s: travel was a special event in one’s life; leisure time was valued and essential; people still wore their best even on the longest of journeys. It was the time of Hercule Poirot and Jay Gatsby, Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn, the Jazz Age, and Hollywood. Nothing better encapsulates that era of wonder and glamour quite like a luxurious train journey. Sit quietly in a well-appointed cabin, watching the world’s most beautiful scenery pass you by, or head to the lounge car to mingle and imbibe. Explore on foot at stops along the way, sleep peacefully each night lulled by the low rumble of the engine, and learn to appreciate the journey as much as the destination.
