This was a unique and memorable tour full of interest and diversity from the urban setting of Cape Town visiting Robben Island and enjoying the views from the top of Table Mountain on a clear day, travelling across South Africa in comfort by road and luxury rail, seeing wildlife including lions, elephants and hippos at close quarters in their natural environment in Botswana and walking around the iconic Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Throughout we travelled and stayed in very good quality, comfortable and secure transport and hotels accompanied throughout by an expert tour manager and informed at each location by local guides. The complex itinerary travelling by road, air and train and making three border crossings all worked like clockwork. Another wonderful experience by Great Rail Journeys.

Excellent holiday ... all accommodation and meals very good ... lots of travelling but of course that is the only way to see places ...... good company and excellent our manager Kay .... nothing to complain about at all although I am not a complainer ..... one or two minor hitches during the holiday but that's not a problem with a holiday lasting more than two weeks
