The luxury travel subsidiary of the LVMH group has unveiled the latest addition to its collection of luxury trains exploring Great Britain. From July 2025, the Britannic Explorer will offer an exploration of the wild and picturesque nature of Cornwall, the Lake District nature park and Wales.

 

The Britannic Explorer – the latest luxury train to be presented by the Belmond Group, a subsidiary of LVMH – is sure to set many hearts aflutter.
