Editorial Reviews

Discover the world’s most luxurious trains and relive a bygone era, when the journey itself was the most significant part of the experience; rather than simply getting there. A journey where the passenger becomes a real traveler and is able to experience the much more gracious way of travel - in a living recreation of the golden age of rail.

The Northern Belle, also known as the British Orient Express because it offers the very same highest standards of excellence as its illustrious counterpart, follows a route through the beautiful countryside of mainland Britain. Travelers enjoy seven days of stylish and elegant living while experiencing a truly ‘First Class’ journey.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a very enjoyable trip!, November 3, 2007

This review is from: Luxury Trains of the World: The Northern Belle - The British Orient Express (DVD)

I really wanted to enjoy this DVD, but the narration and the pace of this particular train journey is slightly dry and boring. There is more of documentary and talk, than actual shooting of the train trip. In the narration, there is reference to stunning surroundings, beautiful scenes and all that, but there really is nothing that's actually been shot as part of this journey except for the interiors! This always made me feel that something good is coming up on the way, but it never does!

1.0 out of 5 stars Avoid the Northern Belle video, April 10, 2009

This review is from: Luxury Trains of the World: The Northern Belle - The British Orient Express (DVD)

The Luxury Trains of the World series is a wonderful train series, but this video, "The Northern Belle", is a major disappointment. It is certainly the worst of the series, hands down. There is an incredibly lengthy talking head, telling you about the other trains that this company runs. Very very little of the scenery is shown and where it is, it is mostly with train tracks superimposed on the scenery. Even at its low price this is one video that is vastly overpriced and best to be avoided.

Fantastic camera shots and narration; it certainly makes you want to take this trip! I certainly wish we had more short trips like this in the US.
