Follow along the old Silk Road, along the paths of travelers and traders who swapped precious furs and silks for crystal, spices, and metals, by MIR’s Silk Road by Private Train. The journey between Beijing and Moscow takes 21 days, with opportunities to disembark the train to explore sites such as Merv, a historic UNESCO site. Yet once aboard the luxurious trains, where meals featuring regional specialties are expertly prepared, and your own private butler sees that your bed is turned down nightly, each day will blur together, into one unforgettable experience.

Rates begin at US $14,395, per person, for a twin share.
