Today I'm taking the famous Rovos Rail luxury train for 96 hrs across South Africa. Join me on this adventure from Cape Town all the way up to Joberg. Together we'll experience what's been named the world's most luxurious sleeper train, from inside the best room onboard (the Royal Suite) to the various dining rooms, the observation deck and even my ensuite bath!
I used my friend Jarvis’ luxury travel agency: theluxurytraveller.com to book this trip. He assisted no end in arranging all the finer details of the this once in a lifetime adventure.

Thanks so much for coming along on this adventure with me. I have a packed next few months coming up (Millie is returning to the channel too)... but if you have any suggestions of unique luxury trains, planes or even ships let me know :)

Hi, I think you might enjoy the Belmont Simplon Eastern and Oriental Express from Singapore to Bangkok. And if you want to get your feet wet have a look at the SS Sudan the last original paddle steamer to ply the Nile from Luxor to Aswan. I can recommend both trips. But in truth Sir your take on any travel experience will be entertaining!👍

Being South African born and bred, and having driven across the Karoo, it all looked so familiar. There is a energy in the ground in Africa and unless you have been there you don't understand it. It made me feel both so homesick but also proud to see the scenery, the sunsets and the beautiful train and proper luxury from a era long ago that is far more luxurious than anything modern that is touted as 'luxury' or 'premium' which don't hold a candle to this - this is proper old school luxury and attention to detail at it's finest. A fabulous video and journey and a new subscriber to your channel too! Thanks again fella.

Rewriting de-lee-ted comment. The American Orient express was a train that ran until 2008 when the economic crash happened. It was the level of quality and comfort seen in this video above. Great to see that there are still trains that run like that in the world. Thankfully, many of the cars of the AOE got "saved" and are now in the hands of private individuals, collectors, museums, heritage railroads, and historical societies.

I feel for you , its only that my love of Travel outweighs my fear of flying .... not by much , but as i live on a Island .... i kinda need to fly , or speed days just to get somewhere decent , i found alcohol helps me but in 25 days im doing Ireland to Singapore and i dont think my body can take being drunk for that long lol

I recently came across your channel and I'm so glad I did. It's a relaxing and opulent experience without the price. One day maybe.

Just finished your video, I've seen some luxury trains but did not realize it went to this extent, amusing to know you experienced load shedding that we endure daily. I can see why I never knew this existed because for over 100k one could buy a very decent second hand car. Thanks for the high praise of SA

This is terrific Will, excellent filming and narrative. I can almost feel your pain with the endless provision of food and drink!! Good to see you enjoy the more exotic meats on offer. I can highly recommend a food stall at the Mindil Beach markets in NT Australia; the Roadkill Cafe, no explanation required! Keep up the excellent experiences Sir

Hey Trek Trendy I love your content, both about trains and planes, are you planning on going over boats and cruises? I'd love to see that as well!

@Trektrendy Год назад

Lots planned ;) - thanks so much for watching

Been so excited to see this. Read about this train journey years ago and always wanted to go, but I’m in a wheelchair so doubt it’s possible. Did you see any wheelchair accessible cabins? Least I can live the trip through this video!

@richplant2205 Год назад

They surely MUST have accessible cabins. It would be illegal in the U.K. if they didn’t

@sarahgodfrey6456 Год назад

I’ve just looked on their website, it’s not wheelchair accessible but could be suitable for people with walking difficulties. Oh well I can just dream with you. x

@richplant2205 Год назад

@@sarahgodfrey6456 that’s not good. It’s really not representative of my country, it wouldn’t be allowed.

@@richplant2205 Full accessibility is rare outside of the UK and Ireland, even Southern and Eastern Europe is often very hard to find it on public transport. Memories of 6mths in a wheelchair (back injury) whilst at school, being carried up and down the stairs at the stations and at school, in the wheelchair.

@richplant2205 Год назад

@@tonys1636 😞 how retro. I guess safety has to come into the equation. But normal trains are accessible 🤷‍♂️

I, too, have just discovered your videos and am enjoying your train trekking immensely 😊 Like your style, namely taking along a bottle of champagne while soaking in a hot bath 👌
