I've always wanted to go back in time and take a fabulous trip on the Orient Express. Now Amtrak is starting a new service called the "GrandLuxe Limited." The trips are mainly in the west, but they have ones from Union Station to Miami or Chicago. This is what Fodor's had to say:
"GrandLuxe offers separate cars attached to Amtrak trains, and the experience aims to be very high end -- think five-course dinners, luxurious suites with vintage furnishings and mohogany interiors, personal butler service, four-course meals served on fine china, etc."
and this is what the website had to say about the DC to Miami trip:
"The GrandLuxe Limited on The Silver Meteor
Travel for two days in grand style. Board at Washington's historic rail station next to the nation's Capitol. Traverse America's Southeast through Georgia pines, picturesque riverfront Jacksonville and the St. John River, central Florida's orange groves, Orlando, and Southern Florida's jewels of West Palm Beach and Ft. Lauderdale before arriving in Miami."
How nice would it be to travel for two days in the height of style, spend a few days on the beach in Miami and then fly back up?
As soon as I save up that $789...
(If you book between this November and January, they'll give you a $100 alcohol credit...not bad)
