La Dolce Vita Orient Express, a Special Partner of the 2025 Italian Open, has announced an exclusive golf tour departing Rome this November, passing through Tuscany and stopping at The Club at Castiglion del Bosco, Italy’s only private golf club.
The journey combines the heritage of luxury train travel with the prestige of some of Italy’s most celebrated golf courses, while highlighting the country’s cultural and natural beauty.
Castiglion del Bosco’s beautifully conditioned 18-hole golf course, set on sweeping grasslands under a renovated medieval village and overlooking the UNESCO protected Val d’Orcia landscape, is the only Continental European design of champion golfer and revered course architect Tom Weiskopf.
David Waters, General Manager & Director of Golf at The Club at Castiglion del Bosco, commented: “We are delighted to welcome guests of La Dolce Vita Orient Express for this very special visit to The Club at Castiglion del Bosco. Italy has become one of the great golf destinations of the world and there is no finer way to travel through the country and experience our golf courses than in the slow comfort of a luxury train.”
La Dolce Vita Orient Express launched two exclusive tours at the Italian Open. The Northern Greens itinerary in October begins in Rome and heads north, while the Italian Swing in November heads south, down through Tuscany to Puglia.
Complementing the train’s existing portfolio of eight itineraries, these curated experiences combine world-class courses with postcard-perfect landscapes, Michelin-starred cuisine, and the timeless charm of Italian lifestyle. Aboard, guests will be accompanied by an internationally renowned professional golfer for the duration of the journey.
