Excursion Info: Regularly voted one of the best cities in the UK, Winchester brims with timeless charm. It was an important Roman settlement, flourished in the Saxon era and was the capital of England under Alfred the Great. It’s also home to one of the finest medieval cathedrals in Europe. On winding streets, timber-framed buildings sit cheek by jowl with hip bakeries and boutiques and you’re never that far from the River Itchen, which threads through wildlife-rich meadows and lush countryside. Such a city deserves a stylish arrival aboard British Pullman. Begin your journey at London Victoria Station and soak up every sumptuous detail of the vintage train, from the authentic art deco interiors to the stewards’ iconic uniforms. Relax in your armchair at a table set with white linen and bespoke glassware. Take your first sip of a sparkling Bellini and know that your adventure has begun. A delicious brunch is served as you glide towards Hampshire, absorbing the changing landscapes through the window. This is the perfect opportunity to slow down, reconnect and let time take on new meaning as you’re transported back to the Golden Age of travel. On arrival in Winchester, you are met by local guides who accompany you on the short walk into the city centre, giving a guided tour along the way. Afterwards, enjoy free time to explore at leisure, visiting the Gothic cathedral and the Great Hall or simply strolling around the shops and cafes to soak up the ambience. Ten minutes prior to the scheduled departure time on your ticket, please make your way back to the station. Shortly after boarding you’ll find yourself with a glass of chilled champagne in hand, which is soon followed by a sensational four-course dinner. Our sommelier’s choice of wines accompanies the seasonal menu, with coffee served before you arrive back in London.
