The whole tour was very good. Our tour manager Chris was excellent and very attentive and the local guides were very good. Whilst enjoying the whole holiday I would like to point out that the accommodation on the Blue Train and the size least suited our needs but that is a preference. Parts of the train could do with a bit of TLC but that doesn't take anything away from Great Rail.

Wonderful holiday. full on but covered everything we wanted. The excursions from Cape Town were well designed and our South African guide there was excellent. The Blue Train journey was memorable. Delayed by cable theft, the train team pulled out all the stops to make sure we enjoyed the enforced wait. The game drives in the Kruger were excellent. Our ranger, Amos, was very knowledgeable and enabled us to see the big five. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole trip.
