Unbelievable refund...a second video on next year :) or this winter

They probably didn't want a bad review. After all, did every passenger get a refund?

@@flym0 Very good point.

@@flym0all passengers onboard the train got the same letter / offer

@@Trektrendy We are expecting your video once in the 3 days or daily.

sounds like an amazing experience.

My mother in law travelled well into her 60s, and one of my aunties travelled until her 80s, so don't ever give up hope of going on this trip. Put money in a safe. I put 100 a month in a safety deposit box, and it stopped me spending it from my bank account. It's easy. So never stop dreaming.

Yes, it has been on my bucket list since 1974. I am now 70 and having 2 very medically needy dachshunds keep me from traveling. I do not know if I will ever get my dream trip. So thank you for taking me along on this one.

So what happened?

Don't worry the railways in the UK can do a better job of screwing things up. If not on strike.

My wife and I were on this same trip. Earlier in the trip, the AC on the train was not keeping up. I'm pretty certain that every time we entered a new country (which was often on this trip) the train engine was swapped for an engine from that country's train service. Unfortunately the Bulgarian train engine failed (I guess) quite quickly. So we further delayed, waiting in the heat without any AC. This caused the train interior to cook. My wife and I took a siesta (I suppose) to avoid the worst of the heat. A new train engine showed up and we got back on our way. But this delay put us many hours behind schedule and we missed nearly the entire time allotted for our beach side stay in Varna. That was quite disappointing because the resort at Varna looked to be absolutely lovely. The "fun" part of this section of the trip was when we did arrive in the Varna station (remember, many hours late). There was still a huge crowd of people at the station to greet us and the train. It almost felt like a crowd of paparazzi.

'too'???

My wife and I were on this trip also and received the same compensation offer after the trip. I ended up very impressed with Belmond after they assessed what happened and stepped up to "take care" of us (and we're not even famous vloggers 🙂).

@@jeffwhite4782So did you choose the full refund or 130% credit? The latter seems like the better option.

Wife back door not allowed ect

I think being a very successful YT vlogger helps with the freebie lol?

My wife and I were on this same trip, even staying in Car A with Will and Millie (we didn't know who they were until almost the very end of the trip). We received the exact same compensation offer from Belmond. And I can assure you we are not famous. But this action is what outstanding organizations do. Fix it in real time (like they did with accommodating the delay with the avalanche) or if you cannot fix it during the trip, make compensation after the trip as much as possible. We felt the offer from Belmond was above and beyond.

Haha same for me. It was so good that I watched until the end.

The staff were phenomenal throughout - felt so bad for them when the AC was out, especially those in the kitchens!

@@Trektrendy Oh my gosh, exactly. And still in such a great spirit it seems. These kinds of people are rare nowadays.

My wife and I were on the same trip (even staying in Car A with Will and Millie). The inconveniences for the staff ranged from minor to I would guess fairly rough at some points. And we left wondering if phenomenal was sufficiently complimentary. The entire staff on the trip was amazing, outstandingly, above and beyondly, magnificantly (etc-ierly) phenomenal. The beauty of the train is sublime. But even so, the staff was better.

My wife and I were on this same trip. Assuming the delays did not occur and the AC had worked as expected, we would have found the trip "worth" the cost. It was our 25th wedding anniversary trip, and yes the ultimate Bucket List only once in a lifetime experience. Obviously it helps to be a huge fan of the beauty of the 1920's Art Deco decor, but ... the opulence of the historic train cars, the opulence of the food and drink (if seemed like we were always drinking champagne), the convenience of having stewards and other dedicated staff always handle your luggage, the incredible variety and quality of the stops along the route, the joy of the Bar car and most incredibly, the absolute excellence of EVERY staff member on the train made the trip worth the cost. The hiccups that occurred on this one trip were unfortunate and distracting. But that is where the perhaps over and beyond post trip compensation offer from Belmond convinced me these trips are "worth" it.

I agree! For that price I'm not sharing a bathroom and I want a large comfy bed.

With 2x of these trips you get a house in some country in Europe,with the same amount you also get a trip around the world,I find hard to understand ppl who pay this much for this less.

you know this is just a sleeper train but with a little bit more fancy style and food ?

You cried? 😂

Yeah, I chuckled at the 'toilette' thing as well repeatedly

Absolutely this! Hilarious, "Toilette". :-)

Dear Sir, could you elaborate on the "On the Indian Pacific, you got good food and service, along with modern plumbing and ride", as I'm not indigenous to the subtleties of Anglo-Saxon communications? Could you try to clarify your perceived qualities of th Indian Pacific travel?

I started a reply but it has somehow got lost. The double compartments of the Indian Pacific give you a private cabin. The back of the sofa folds down to give a single bed while there is an upper single bed as well. Each double bedroom has its own private bathroom with shower and wc. I can't now be sure if the handbasin was in the bathroom or if it were in the cabin itself. I think it was in the cabin. By contrast, you had to go to the end of the coaches on the Orient Express to have a wc, shared with the other passengers. My memory is that there was no shower for passengers, shared or not. Having your own shower and wc was what I meant by modern plumbing. The modern ride comes from advances in springing and suspension generally from the days when the Orient Express was new. The suspension may well have been updated since we last travelled on the OE. Of course, the Indian Pacific coaches don't have the woodwork or elaborate upholstery of those in the Orient Express. I prefer to have my own bathroom including a shower to 1920's furnishing details. Others may well make different choices.@@andersgrassman6583

@@doubledee9675 Thank you for answering. My wife put us on the Singapore-Bankook back int the 90's for part of our honey moon, as she kwows I'm a train fanatic.😁 I really think this type of train travel ought to be offered as an alternative to ship cruises. to a much wider public, and at all price ranges! Once I was a poor (well...) teenager, travelling major European cities, once actually sleeping in the overhead piecemeal luggage nettrays in a cabin. That one is THE singularily outstandingly most uncomfortable trainride of my life! Not sure even what country I woke up in. Woke up smiling though! 😃 I think we should make the advantegerous, uncomftorbable and maybee somewhat dangerous travels when we are young. Yoy know, it's great fun knowing you took part in a discussion on whether to allow goats (!) on the train in Italy. And a couple of decades later you enjoy insane nice luxury train travel. That actually makes a detour to watch the acctual "Bridge on the Riwer Kwai". (Beeing slightly upper class, my tip is always bring decent linen suits. They wear well also when creased. When things go completely awry, which they surprisingly often do, I find it very comforting to wear decent apparel.

I'm glad to say that I have never tried sleeping on a luggage rack. I konw some who tried it and they said much as you did, warning against it in strong terms. The Indiuan-Pacific has gained much the sort of market you suggest, the alternative to a ship. People fly one way and get the train for the return journey. That's all very well if you like singalongs, but that's not for us. We liked just sitting in our comfortable cabin watching the scenery as it goes past. A cup of tea from time to time, nothing any more energetic than that. @@andersgrassman6583

My wife and I were on this trip also and I had the same thoughts. I have come to understand that while the Paris - Istanbul trip only occurs once a year, the cars of the train are in use probably nearly the whole year on the "other" Vencie Simpson Orient Express trips (e.g., Paris to Venice, Amsterdam to Venice). It sounded like the cars are not used 50 weeks a year and then hauled out for the week of Paris to Istanbul and second week of Istanbul to Paris. I do not think that the case. Regardless, we received the same compensation offer that Will did and thought the offer was appropriate and almost certainly beyond what could have been offered, even expected.

Thank you so much for watching and the kind words 🙏🏼
