New for 2016, the Belmond Grand Hibernian explores Ireland, offering an exceptional luxury travel experience for discerning travellers.
Ireland’s first luxury train joins Belmond‘s iconic rail collection, which includes legends such as the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express and the Eastern & Oriental Express.
The Belmond Grand Hibernian offers accommodation for up to 40 guests in elegant, private en-suite cabins. With design inspiration taken from Dublin’s classic Georgian architecture alongside ancient Irish folklore and tradition, this train offers a polished, indulgent and elegant travel experience.
With pillowy duvets, Galway Crystal light fittings and Irish wool throws, the Belmond Grand Hibernian sleepers offer snug accommodation; some of the double cabins have interconnecting doors to an adjacent twin cabin, allowing families to explore Ireland in style. In addition, one cabin has been adapted fully to meet the needs of disabled guests. The Observation Car’s warm atmosphere is genial and comfortable and guests will enjoy superb Irish cuisine in the comfort of the train’s two dining carriages.
Belmond Grand Hibernian offers a choice of two, four and six night journeys all of which begin and end in Dublin. Each includes daily meals, drinks, excursions and guides.
- The Taste of Ireland two-night journey takes you north to Belfast and the award-winning Titanic Belfast experience and then onto Waterford.
- The Legends and Loughs four-night journey heads west towards Cork and Blarney Castle, onwards to the Lakes of Killarney, Connemara and Galway.
- The Grand Tour of Ireland combines the two and four-night routes with a city tour of Dublin.
And why not extend your stay in Ireland? With options for a round of golf on a stunning golf course as part of your journey, a golf extension after your train journey is complete or a short city break in the Irish capital, Dublin, Ultimate Destinations can tailor your holiday in Ireland to suit you.
