We have an impeccable team that takes cleanliness seriously so our trains can glimmer and shine as they chug and chuff to their next destination. With Africa’s diverse range of trees canopying many of our tracks, our trains get regular scrapes as they glide off into the sunset. To remedy this, our team washes and polishes all trains before every journey so they can look as good on the outside as they do on the inside.

“Welcome to Pretoria.” 🚂
These words have been uttered with unfailing enthusiasm by Rohan Vos over the past three decades as passengers from all walks of life arrive at Capital Park station.
Receiving guests is a treasured tradition which started off as a hobby 35 years ago. This tradition is followed by an introductory speech and an insightful tour of the station where Rohan gives a brief overview of the trains, workshops, Rovos Rail’s humble beginnings and how the company has evolved over the years.

Capital Park station is a historical gem tucked away among Pretoria’s CBD, the National Zoological Gardens and African tuck shops. The station grounds are home to many animals – from donkeys to bird sanctuaries and even a horse. However, our most recent addition is peachicks! If you have recently snapped them roaming the grounds, please share your photos or videos with us.

Betty Nguyen recently travelled with us on a dreamy 3-night journey from Cape Town to Pretoria, and according to her, the glamour and excitement of train travel still exist. She enjoyed 5-star service, moreish meals, once-in-a-lifetime African scenery and glorious sunset views. The trip also included a visit to the historic village of Matjiesfontein and a tour of the Kimberley Diamond Mine Museum.

Our Victoria Falls journey is unlike any other. Spanning 1400kms, it takes guests on two game drives in both Matobo National Park and Hwange National Park and the main highlight, of course, is seeing the incomparable Victoria Falls on the mighty Zambezi River. The surrounding areas offer travellers many recreational opportunities including cruises, whitewater rafting as well as superb game viewing and photo safaris.

What an exhilarating way to explore Namibia! Our train was recently spotted gliding through the desert landscape near Walvis Bay. The passengers on board the observation deck can be seen sipping G&Ts while enjoying panoramic views of the sandy vistas.
