CAPE TOWN
The Old Karoo Pioneering Trail
For
many visitors to South Africa, there's no finer way to see the country
than on the popular weekly journeys between Pretoria and Cape Town.
One of the world's top destinations, Cape Town offers a blend of cosmopolitan
city life, mountain splendour and scenic winelands. The twin cities
of Pretoria and Johannesburg in Gauteng form South Africa's economic
heartland and the ideal departure point for the Lowveld's world-famous
game reserves. From the coast, the 1600 kilometre route follows an
old pioneering trail carved out of the African bushveld, passing through
the winelands and climbing up to the interior through the Hex River
Valley. Highlights of the north and southbound routes include visits
to the historic village of Matjiesfontein, a 100-year-old refreshment
stop in the arid Karoo, and Kimberley (city of De Beers), the diamond
boom-town that's home to the Big Hole, the world's largest man-made
excavation. |

NAMIBIA
An Epic Journey of Discovery
In May
1998, Rovos Rail reopened the passenger rail link between Pretoria
and Nambia. This seven-day, six-night journey takes passengers 3 400
kilometres from the savannahs of the Highveld to the shores of the
Atlantic Ocean at Swakopmund. Highlights of the journey include Kimberley
and the Big Hole, the spectacular Fish River Canyon, the stark beauty
of the Kalahari and Namib deserts, a visit to Windhoek, the vibrant
capital of Nambia, and an overnight stay at a game lodge bordering
Etosha Pan. Journey's end is at Swakopmund, a perfectly preserved
nineteenth- century German Hansa town, picked up from the Baltic and
set down in the desert of Africa. It's
a remarkable sight and a fitting end - or starting place - for this
fascinating journey.

AFRICAN COLLAGE
A Rich Tapestry of Landscape
Rovos
Rail will once again run this annual journey starting 29th May 2003.
This panoramic nine-day sojourn commences at Rovos Rail Station at
Capital Park in Pretoria. The first leg of the journey takes the train
through Witbank and Middleburg and then traverses the majestic Drakensberg
escarpment en route to the lowveld of Mpumalanga. The following morning
you will receive an early wake up call to join a game drive through
the famous Kruger Park. Brunch will be served in the Dining Car while
the train winds its way southwards to Swaziland in time for an afternoon
game drive in the Mkhaya Reserve. The day will be rounded off with
a candlelit bush dinner in the pristine riverine setting of Stone
Camp. During the night the train will continue south to the village
of Hluhluwe in Zululand. Starting early once again, a wide variety
of game can be seen on a morning game drive through the scenic Hluhluwe
Game Reserve. The Pride of Africa departs mid morning and makes its
way south through the lush cane fields and rolling hills of Kwazulu
Natal, arriving in Durban late afternoon. The train, after an evening
in Durban, steadily ascends the scenic escarpment through Pietermaritzburg
and The Valley of a Thousand Hills en route to Ladysmith and Bethlehem.
This route takes the train past Lesotho and the highest mountains
in the Drakensberg range at 3,482 metres (11 425 feet). During the
night we pass through Bloemfontein, the Freestate capital, and continue
southwards for a late afternoon excursion to Addo close to Port Elizabeth.
The next stop of the Pride of Africa will be Oudtshoorn for a visit
to the Highgate Ostrich farm followed by another spectacular rail
descent down the Montagu pass into George. A morning visit to Knysna
and the surrounding attractions will complete the visit to this natural
paradise. The train sets off at midday from George travelling along
the scenic Garden Route through Mossel Bay and Riversdale. The next
morning, after a short visit to the KWV Brandy Distillery in Worcester,
the Pride of Africa ends its magnificent collage in the Mother City
of Cape Town.
