Blue Train tours

Opening up a world of grace, elegance and romance, our Blue Train tours are the ultimate luxury rail experience. On South Africa’s answer to the Orient Express, you will be waited on hand and foot as the Blue Train traverses the 1,600km route between Pretoria and Cape Town, passing breathtaking countryside.

Often likened to a 5-star hotel on wheels, the Blue Train is famed for its exquisite cuisine, with fine meals freshly prepared on board by top chefs, accompanied by South Africa’s finest wines. As you recline in your fabulously opulent suite, the beautiful, ever-changing South African landscape unfolds. On a Blue Train tour you will see Cape Town’s magnificent Table Mountain; Kimberley with its diamond museum; and the historical town of Majtiesfontein.

Don’t miss out. Catch the Blue Train with us.
