The Blue Train

More than just a train journey, the South African Blue Train is an all-inclusive luxury rail cruise which showcases some of country's most spectacular scenery. It's stylish and timeless interior, attentive service and colonial tradition has made it one of the most famous and highly acclaimed rail journeys in the world. 

By day your elegant cabin acts as a private lounge, changing, as night falls, into a subtly lit en-suite bedroom with butler service. The Blue Train also has a Club Car and lounge to enjoy an evening drink with fellow travellers. Sumptuous meals are served in the dining car, complimented by award winning South African wines. 

The Blue Train connects Cape Town with the capital city of Pretoria, through some of South Africa's most stunning landscapes, a journey as beautiful as the continent itself. The southbound route also includes a fascinating off-train excursion to the Kimberly open diamond mine and museum.
