A Leisurely Sojourn by Luxury Train trips through South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe
Your two-night three day luxury train trips begin with a departure from Rovos Rail’s gracious station in Capital Park, Pretoria. This special journey departs in the morning and slowly meanders westwards through Mafikeng into Botswana and then north towards Mahalapye, crossing the Tropic of Capricorn just after Gabarone on memorable scenic train route.
Once the train has passed through the dry reaches of Botswana we arrive at Plumtree in the late afternoon for border formalities with Zimbabwe. We continue in a north-westerly direction passing Bulawayo and heading towards Thompson’s Junction and Hwange Game Reserve.
The Luxury train trips end with the incomparable Victoria Falls on the mighty Zambezi River. Please note that depending upon railways capacity luxury train trips could be routed northwards through Beitbridge and Zimbabwe.
