Coach class
Hop on board the world's most luxurious locomotives.
Royal Canadian Pacific
Canada: Lounge in your own private suite, lined in rich walnut with bird's-eye maple inlay and furnished with Turkish drapes, while the rugged mountain scenery floats past your window. The six-day Royal Canadian Rockies Experience starts at $6,600 per person. (www.royalcanadianpacific.com)
Venice Simplon-Orient Express
Europe: Immortalized by crime writer Agatha Christie, this 1920s gem was the first deluxe train in Europe. The most taxing decision? Will you choose the London-Paris-Venice or Paris-Budapest-Bucharest-Istanbul route? A two-day trip starts at $2,900 per person (www.orient-express.com)
The Blue Train
South Africa: Book a luxury suite and revel in the soft double bed, deep bath and butler service. Head to the dining car for Knysna oysters and Karoo lamb -- among other gourmet delicacies -- and Cape Town vintages. A two-day trek from Pretoria to Cape Town starts at $1,300 per person (www.bluetrain.ca.za)
