Catering to golfers and non-golfers, this adventure through South Africa’s dramatic landscapes in private compartments with ensuites is relaxed and indulgent. The convivial atmosphere with friends and fellow travellers on board is enhanced with gastronomic dining in the opulent restaurant coach, together with full bar service in beautifully appointed lounge and observation cars. Along the way be inspired by our professional golfing hosts, Gary and Matt, on the great golf courses or, on a program running in parallel, explore the many fascinating sights with seasoned adventurer Scott and his team of local guides.
