Golf & Safari on board the Rovos Rail

A Luxury Golf and Wilderness Experience

South Africa offers the chance to experience a unique holiday in the luxury of yesteryear, combining a passion for golf with the excitement of the most breathtaking safaris. This is at the heart of the "Golf & Safari" tour aboard the prestigious Rovos Rail.

.

In contrast to the "African Collage" package, this itinerary focuses on the eastern part of the country, emphasising even more the naturalistic aspect. During the 9-day trip, every detail will be taken care of with the utmost attention: refined meals, fine wines, elegant settings and breathtaking views to admire in total relaxation.

.

The Rovos Rail, known as "The Pride of Africa", è one of the most exclusive trains in the world. A true throwback to the elegant The 20s, with modern comfort and facilities.
