Following the success of Ancient Egypt by Train, this time Alice Roberts takes the railways again to explore a more challenging and mysterious empire.

Roberts starts her journey near the Syrian border, traversing Turkey before entering the Balkans and finishing up at the empire's westernmost point, Budapest.
