The Shongololo Express is a South African cruise-train that carries its own fleet of mini vans used to take passengers on daily guided sightseeing drives. This unique train safari is one of the most convenient ways of seeing Southern Africa with travel between destinations at night, and exploration during the day, guests discover regional attractions on board air-conditioned vehicles. The recently refurbished train has classic 1950s carriages with accommodations in four two-person categories: Emerald, Commodore and Gold cabins with en-suite and Ivory cabins with shared facilities. Breakfast and dinner are prepared on board and served daily in the restaurant, with lunches at guests own expense. Off-rail excursions take place every day and a great variety of sights, scenery and activities are on the schedule. Depending on the package taken, some of these off-rail activities are included in the price while others can be purchased optionally while on tour. More exotic or extensive activities such as an open vehicle safari in a national park, a canoe adventure, quad biking or hot air ballooning, to name a few, are interspersed in the three Adventure itineraries and are also for optional purchase en route.
Without doubt, a train safari is the most convenient, economic and comfortable way of seeing southern Africa. Unpack on boarding and only pack again at the end of your tour. Good food, good service, and good fellowship are all part of your traveling ‘hotel’. You can be assured of the same excellent service and great atmosphere on every Shongololo journey.
