Expect history and culture, and also luxury, relaxation and pleasure during a fascinating and unforgettable day. We shall travel through the English countryside in high summer aboard the vintage British Pullman train from London Victoria Station to Highclere Castle in Hampshire, seat of the Earls of Carnarvon, enjoying a Champagne reception and fine dining to rival the leading London restaurants along the way.

We shall enjoy a private view of the magnificent State Rooms of Highclere Castle, one of the great stately houses of England. And we shall visit the spectacular Egyptian Exhibition of priceless artefacts from the Tomb of Tutankhamun.

The event has been arranged to mark the centenary of the discovery of the tomb of the ‘Boy Pharaoh’ by the 5th Earl of Carnarvon and Howard Carter. It is considered one of the world’s most important archaeological discoveries ever made, as well as one of its most exciting and controversial.
