Overview
This six-day journey commences in Cape Town and ends at the majestic Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Travel through the spectacular mountain ranges and scenic winelands of the Cape to the haunting barrenness of the Great Karoo. Visit the historic village of Matjiesfontein. Next stop is Kimberley for a city tour and a visit to the world’s largest man-made excavation, the Big Hole, and its supporting Diamond Mine Museum. Arrive in Pretoria for an introduction to our beautifully appointed station.
Join in an optional tour of the city or have the afternoon at leisure before spending the night at your hotel. The train departs the following morning and slowly meanders westwards into Botswana then north, crossing the Tropic of Capricorn just after Gaborone. After border formalities in Zimbabwe, the journey continues in a northwesterly direction passing Bulawayo and heads towards Hwange Game Reserve where animals can be spotted from the train. Journey’s end is the incomparable Victoria Falls on the mighty Zambezi River.
Please note that depending upon the railway’s capacity this journey could be routed northwards through Beitbridge and Zimbabwe.
