Pretoria is one of South Africa’s most graceful cities. And it’s a perfect departure point for this 1,600-kilometre journey which illustrates a world in one country – combining the appeal of city life, with majestic mountains and outstanding winelands.
By day, you’ll relax as the elegantly refurbished Edwardian-style train transports you through some of South Africa’s most captivating scenery, with stop-offs in historically interesting towns. As daylight fades, you’ll return to your spacious suite to freshen up and prepare for an evening of fine dining and exceptional wine.
Your leisurely tour will take you through the windswept grassland of the Highveld to the dusty landscape and big skies of the Great Karoo, as well as the lush Cape Winelands. On approach to South Africa’s vibrant Mother City, you’ll admire the iconic trio of Table Mountain, Devils' Peak and Lion's Head.
This morning you’ll arrive in Kimberley. Here, you can take a city tour/tram ride, before visiting the Diamond Mine Museum and the Big Hole – the world's largest man-made excavation.
After a few hours to explore, you’ll depart from Modder River Station near Kimberley and travel across the Karoo – via De Aar and Beaufort West – for Matjiesfontein.
