Kruger Shalati The Train On The Bridge has become a 'must do' safari stay in a number of ways. Permanently stationed on the historically-rich Selati Bridge above the Sabie River in the iconic Kruger National Park, Kruger Shalati offers the most unique luxury accommodation in a re-envisioned train.
As a restored locomotive, the train-hotel Kruger Shalati pays homage to the guests who explored the park nearly 100 years ago while welcoming new explorers from near and far.
The train accommodation offers 31 rooms, consisting of 24 carriage rooms and 7 bridge house rooms. The glass-walled, large train rooms allow for infinite views along the length of the Sabie River and are designed to ensure comfort. All rooms provide guests with a high-star luxury experience, accompanied by fine dining and other leisure experiences on site. Aligned with the floor level of the train lies a deck with a pool, offering guests the unique experience of taking a dip while watching crocodiles, hippos, and elephants just meters below.
Game viewing activities include morning and evening guided game drives led by well-trained ranger-guides in the Kruger National Park, offering a wildlife experience that ranks among the best in Africa.

Our first time in Africa is absolutely amazing!
Booked our trip for Capetown, Okavango delta and Victoria falls with Leigh-Ann was seamless. We’ve already had our amazing time in Capetown and now enjoying the beautiful camp Moremi very much even in the rain, we look forward to what Victoria falls has to offer later.
