Africa by Rail - Escorted Holidays

From the waterfront city of Cape Town, set against lofty peaks that soar high out from an azure ocean, to swathes of vast wilderness that are home to the fabled 'Big Five', Africa is a diverse country with outstanding landscapes to match. Take in dynamic cities that are constantly looking to the future, sample some of the world's greatest wines in Stellenbosch Valley or catch a glimpse of a majestic lion seeking respite from the heat in the shade of a leafy acacia tree. From sublime scenery and rare wildlife to diverse culture, exciting cuisine and world-class wine, this is a destination that really does have it all.
