Two unique cities, both celebrated for their magnificent architecture and style, but both very different. A visit to them is guaranteed to enrich the soul.
A visit to Prague is like taking a step back in time - the old medieval buildings, gothic churches, baroque domes, Renaissance palaces are all magnificently preserved.
The views are unforgettable: the golden roofs, the floodlit castle from Charles Bridge, the National Museum at Wenceslas Square and the fairy-tale gothic spires of the old town. The castle area dominates the city, containing the St. Vitus cathedral, the Royal Palace, museums and the Golden Lane.
Take a look at the 'Little Quarter', which has hardly changed since the 18th century, before strolling over Charles Bridge, lined with stalls and statues of the saints, to the old town. There are great beers, surprisingly good food and a rich and varied cultural life with some wonderful opera houses offering tickets at absurdly low prices.
And what better way to arrive in this beautiful and stylish city than on board the most beautiful and stylish of transports - the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express.
And what better city to partner this beautiful destination - Venice, unique in every way, is a city of superlatives; its grace and timeless beauty never fail to enchant even the most seasoned traveller. This glorious city, built on an archipelago of more than 100 islands, traversed by 200 canals, spanned by 400 bridges, continues to rise above the waters of the lagoon and the flowing tide of visitors.
