Rail Journeys

Tours & Safaris

We have what has been described as "The Most Luxurious Train in the World" which travels from Cape Town to Pretoria and on to Durban or Hoedspruit or Victoria Falls or even Dar es Salaam. This train's coaches comprises of dining cars, sleeping cars, private saloons, staff and baggage vans that range in vintage from 1911 to 1956. These coaches have been lovingly restored to the degree that most passengers are under the impression that they are originally built as the quality of the workmanship is outstanding.

There are two other rail companies that offer a choice of different rail routes that you can choose from with somewhat more affordable rates. These cover the Cape Town to Pretoria route and longer rail journeys.
