Since its establishment in 1989, Rovos Rail has earned an international reputation for its truly world-class travel experiences.

In a series of 11 bespoke train journeys, step aboard the luxurious vintage wood-panelled coaches and sit back as some of the most varied scenery imaginable unfolds beyond the windows. With discreet and friendly service, top cuisine and a selection of South Africa’s finest wines, Rovos Rail harks back to a simpler, more elegant era encompassing the timeless grace and high romance of African exploration.

For Rovos Rail passengers, a highlight of their journey is a visit to the private station at Capital Park, Pretoria. The once-bustling hub of steam locomotions is now the headquarters for Rovos Rail. The gracious railway station serves as the departure or arrival point for most of the train journeys where the Rovos team work assiduously to ensure the locomotives and trains are maintained to the highest standard. This is the busy hub of a provisioning operation that is world-class in terms of efficiency and attention to detail on board one of the most ‘Great Southern Africa Train Adventures’.
