Creator's Key Takeaways

today i'm taking the world's most exclusive sleeper train for 96 hours across an entire country

the experience so far feels intimate welcoming and personal a far cry from many of these luxury cruise trains

the royal suite is huge just over 16 meters squared and it can be set up in either this king bed setting or as a twin

all in all very indulgent and i'm for sure not going to bed hungry
