The Britannic Explorer, a Belmond Train, glides through the countryside of England and Wales in the company of just 36 guests. Launched in July 2025 on the Cornwall itinerary, the train runs a full season from April to November, calling at some of Britain's most celebrated landscapes.
Three signature three-night journeys — Cornwall, the Lake District, and Wales — can each be savoured independently or combined into a six-night adventure, with a London interlude between legs for free time or an organised experience. Every fare is fully inclusive: 24-hour steward service, all meals, beverages, and the curated excursions that bring each destination to life.
