Victoria Falls Journey

This three-night 1 600-kilometre adventure begins with the train’s departure
from Rovos Rail’s gracious station in Capital Park, Pretoria. It then winds its way
south through Johannesburg and the goldfields of the Witwatersrand before
travelling west alongside the Magaliesberg Mountains and across the Bushveld
Igneous Complex – one of the richest areas for valuable minerals. After border
formalities at Mafikeng, the train travels north the following day through
Botswana’s capital, Gaborone, crosses the Tropic of Capricorn and continues via
Francistown to the Zimbabwean border at Plumtree. Botswana largely consists
the Kalahari semi-desert with the majority of the population living along the
north-south railway line where there is plentiful evidence of cattle ranching. The
next day the train passes through Hwange National Park – a rich and diverse
wildlife sanctuary – where animals can be spotted from the train and a game
drive excursion is enjoyed, time permitting. After a service stop at
Thompsons Junction, the sojourn ends at the incomparable Victoria
Falls on the mighty Zambezi River. The surrounding area offers
travellers many recreational opportunities including cruises, whitewater
rafting as well as superb game viewing and photo safaris.
