This is the Venice Simplon Orient Express. It costs around €3000 per person for an overnight trip and a cabin from Paris to Venice.

    Looks cramped as fuck and youd have to stare at the people ahead of you to sit

      It's a lounge car, so it's a place to go to sit down and talk to strangers or others in your group and chill. I've also heard that phones don't work for shit, and wifi is nonexistent so it's kind of a "not a cell phone in site, just ppl living in the moment" kind of vibe on the train, so people are liable to mingle and tell interesting stories. Personally as a transit nut, I'd love to talk to people that work on the train.
