Luxury Rail Combines With

A winding luxury train trip through the diverse and spectacular South African landscape may make you yearn for more of this great country, and whether you disembark in Cape Town or Pretoria, there is plenty for you to do, see and experience.

Explore Cosmopolitan Cape Town

The southern tip of Africa is home to the Rainbow Nation's crown jewel - the Mother City of Cape Town. This cosmopolitan and trendy city has it all - incredible mountain and ocean scenery, award-winning Winelands, stretches of white sandy beaches, a host of adventurous activities and a deep cultural heritage.

A few days spent in Cape Town before or after your luxury train journey is time well spent; from cable car trips up Table Mountain and boat rides out to historic Robben Island, to shopping at the V&A Waterfront and dining in style at one of Cape Town's top restaurants, this city is yours to explore.

Top-class luxury Cape Town villas and boutique hotels are the order of the day in Cape Town, with family accommodation, romantic hideaways and exclusive luxury hotels dotted all over the place.

Embark on a Cape Town city tour, see the penguins at Boulder's Beach, travel to Cape Point or simply relax - which is why a stint in Cape Town and a luxury Africa train journey is the perfect combination.

Experience A Luxury South African Safari

South Africa is not all cities and bright lights; wild and thrilling Big 5 game viewing is on your doorstep. When you disembark your luxury Africa train in Pretoria, you are just a stone-throw away from some of Africa's premier wildlife destinations.

If Cape Town is the crown jewel, then the incredible Kruger National Park is South Africa's diamond. Boisterous lion prides, exhilarating chases through the bush, breathtaking scenery and a luxury experience like none other await you in Kruger.

From private concessions within the park, to luxury private reserves like the Sabi Sands, Kruger opens the door to prime wildlife viewing and some of the best luxury camps and lodges in Africa.

A Kruger safari is just one option to consider after your luxury train journey; the Madikwe Game Reserve is just 3 hours from Johannesburg and is one of South Africa's best kept secrets, as is the incredibly scenic Pilanesberg - a beautiful protected wilderness adjacent to Sun City.

If you're heading along the Garden Route on your luxury train journey, then be sure to embark on an Eastern Cape Safari, known for their great malaria-free game viewing, convenient locations and intimate private reserves - home to the Big 5.

So if you consider your African holiday at an end once you disembark your luxury train, think again - a Big 5 South African Safari is an absolute must-do and a perfect combination with a luxury African train journey.
