Since its establishment in 1989, Rovos Rail has earned an international reputation for its truly world-class travel experiences. With discreet and friendly service, fine cuisine and a selection of South Africa’s top wines, Rovos Rail harks back to a simpler, more elegant era encompassing the timeless grace and high romance of African exploration. In a series of journeys lasting from 48 hours to 15 days, Rovos Rail links some of Africa’s greatest destinations. The beautifully rebuilt trains – which may be hauled by diesel or electric locomotives – carry a maximum of 72 passengers in 36 superbly appointed suites and are available for charter on any scheduled journey. Pride of place in the Rovos stable goes to the historic station and locomotive yard in Pretoria, the heart and headquarters of this private railway company. This is the busy hub of a provisioning operation, which rivals that of a world-class hotel in terms of efficiency and attention to detail.

THE TRAINEach train has accommodation carriages, dining cars, a lounge car, smoking lounge and observation car with open-air balcony. There is a small gift shop on board and, maintaining the spirit of travel of a bygone era, there are no radios or television sets on board. Many of the passengers aboard enjoy the formality of fine china and glassware, crisp linen and silver, and dress accordingly. During the day dress is smart casual.

THE CUISINEAn enthusiastic team of chefs is responsible for overseeing the very important task of ensuring guests every need is catered for. There’s an accent on fresh local ingredients and traditional dishes are a specialty. Meals are served in one sitting only and are complemented by fine South African wines. We will do our best to cater for dietaries provided a detailed request has been made at the time of the reservation. We regret we are unable to prepare meals requiring strict religious observance in the preparation.
