Imagine the luxury and comfort of the finest five-star hotel. Where the best Cape wines are complemented by gourmet cuisine, served with dignity and elegance. Imagine your very own butler, turning down the linen sheets. Imagine a hotel where you can watch the moon rise over the Karoo and wake to find yourself surrounded by vineyards. Imagine the Blue Train where each air-conditioned compartment will have a bathroom or shower, TV, radio, video for private viewing . The compartments offer the most luxurious accommodation of any train in the world.
The journey from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth via sections of the Garden Route; a two night journey with a late afternoon departure from Cape Town and travel through Worcester, Robertson, Swellendam and arrive Mossel Bay in the early morning. Then continue to George and Oudtshoorn where excursions to the famous Cango Caves and ostrich farm will be made. The train will depart again at 7.00 p.m for the last section of the journey through the mountains, and crossing into the Eastern Cape to arrive on the third day at 09.00 am in Port Elizabeth.
