Luxury Train Travel Packages - South Africa

We had a wonderful time on the train and in Cape Town.

Mrs Joy Haslam
Thanks very much it was truly a fantastic trip and I would strongly recommend it to anybody who loves train travel. There was nothing that we could suggest that needs to be improved. Not often that you get the chef coming through the dining car to find out how we were enjoying the meals.

Doug Hambidge – South Africa
We had the most amazing experience from the time we stepped on the train to the time we got off. Staff were always on hand to assist with what ever was needed from your butler to the dining staff to the bar staff. Food was very tasty and we had a wonderful mix of passengers on the train. Scenery was beautiful. Kimberly excursion very interesting and informative. Thank you

Sharron Barber - South Africa
