Train trip Rovos Rail

Legendary train journey through Southern Africa

Take a journey on the most luxurious train in the world. The romantic journey starts at the world-famous Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and ends in the beautifully situated Cape Town in South Africa. An adventurous train journey awaits you between these two destinations, including four nights aboard the train and one night in Pretoria. Along the way you will visit Pretoria, the mining town of Kimberley and the historic town of Matjiesfontein. Where the world can't find you...

Nostalgia on the trail

Wooden wall panels, thick carpets, classic furniture made of wood and leather; Rovos' train cars ooze nostalgia. However, that delightful atmosphere is accompanied by contemporary comforts. It is downright enjoyable: gazing out of the window, landscapes glide by, meanwhile lacking nothing. At regular intervals, the train makes a stop so you can feel and experience what life is like in Southern Africa.
