Rovos Rail

Revel in the joys of slow travel aboard the Rovos Rail, one of the world’s most luxurious trains, as you travel past some of South Africa’s most enchanting destinations.

Pick from three different classes of air-conditioned sleeper suites, complete with wood panelling, plush beds, a writing desk, ensuite bathrooms with showers and other modern facilities. Savour specially prepared meals and traditional dishes made with the freshest produce and served on fine china and glassware in the train’s dining car. Spend time catching up with fellow passengers and watch the scenery change from the big picture windows of the lounge car or step out to the observation deck for some fresh air and sublime panoramas. During evenings, don your finest dresses, suits and tuxedos according to the night’s theme for a sophisticated dining experience. Clink your glasses, sip on the finest South African wines and raise a toast to a journey like no other.

The Rovos Rail runs multiple routes within and outside South Africa, ranging from two-night itineraries such as the journey from Pretoria to Durban or vice versa to 15-day adventures that cut across South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Tanzania.
